    Episode Notes

    Why have an updated strategy to partner with parents?

    • Culture is changing around us (how families live and breathe and interact with the church)
    • The makeup of the families change
    • Parenting strategies/philosophies changes
    • Give updates in the context to improve specific examples

    What’s your approach?

    • It starts with YOU
    • Evaluate what you’re doing
    • If God is working in you He can work through you
    • Get real honest and build on the foundation of authenticity as leaders — that is what people follow
    What are some traps to avoid?
    • Focusing on pleasing people
    • Building platforms
    • Losing devotional lives
    • Unhealthy boundaries
    • Missing worship and not being fully present

    Final Thoughts:

    • Listen intently… Listening is active
    • Ask the parent… What does it mean for us to partner with you?
    • Define what they need
    • Given your context, what is the best first step for you?
      • First step… Be captured by the vision of partnering parents
