Helping Your Child Prepare to Meet their Future Spouse, with Tricia Goyer
Questions and Prayers to prepare kids’ hearts
Tricia Goyer, author of a lot of books :), and Mom to ten (!!) is with me today to talk about her new book (co-written with Robin Jones Gunn) called “Before You Meet Your Future Husband: 30 Questions to Ask Yourself and 30 Heartfelt Prayers” Tricia shares from her own experience facing a teenage pregnancy, and how that shaped her heart to raise her own children.
Though the book we are drawing from is for girls/young women, (12 and up, approximately) we are applying this conversation to topics important to talk to our sons and daughters about. This may be a great episode to invite your teenager to join you for! Notes and links found over on my website:
