When you walk into a room – do you quickly name drop your career or company, your book name, your kids sport, your school?
I do. I am guilty.
I have spent so many years battling my identity.
I KNOW my most secure and safest place to root my identity is in CHRIST – so I why do I continue to place my assurance in things that are fleeting?
I asked Jeannie Cunnion, author of Parenting the Wholehearted Child, to join me for a conversation on this topic. She is a dear friend and one of my very favorite writers on the topic of grace in parenting.
Enjoy and please …. be patient. This was CLEARLY our first attempt at a Google hangout. We are in no mood to start anything – a podcast, periscope, etc. We THOUGHT this was the easiest way to record a conversation. But we are clearly challenged by technology.
We will discuss:
- Importance of mentors
- Your identity in Christ
- Parenting your kids so their identity is in Christ
- Blog post mentioned – There You Are by House of Hendrix
NOTE: It was live – but this is the taped version now on YouTube.
Connect with Jeannie here.
