Harrogate Parenting for Faith Course (7 weeks) - FREE

Parenting for Faith aims to equip parents to help their children (of any age) connect with God. We all want our children to have a relationship with God but so often our children end up with a head full of knowledge about God but not connected to Him. The course will teach you 5 easy tools to help you raise God-connected children. You can watch the trailer here or find out more about the course on www.parentingforfaith.org .

Parenting for Faith is not a parenting course but is about one thing only: to give you the skills and confidence to help your children flourish spiritually.

So, set aside some time at the beginning of 2021 and join other Christian parents from across the Harrogate district to do this course- this could be one of the best things you do for your family in the new year! Helping the next generation connect with God is one of the most precious things to be involved in so come and equip yourself!

What have others said about the course?

Parenting for Faith is recommended by Care for the Family.

"This is an amazing course. I have a better understanding of how I can help my children in their walk with God and feel empowered and equipped to do it. My kids are asking more questions about God." Parent, Rochester

"I've been encouraged that what I'm doing already is good, and have felt more relaxed about trusting God with my kids, knowing he will reach out to them, and I can leave them to it!" Parent, Gloucestershire

"It's made me much more aware of how I parent and small ways I can give my daughter windows into faith and also discover God for herself." Parent, South Yorkshire

"It’s given me the courage to chat more to my son about his relationship with God. We’ve started to take time to pray for each other – not long – but previously I wouldn’t have asked my son (15) to pray for me." Parent, Cheshire
