The Courageous Grandparenting Seminar includes the following 5 sessions.
Session 1: OWN UP!
Do you believe that grandparents matter? God does, and He has a lot to say to us about His expectations for grandparents. In this session, we’ll unpack what God’s Word has to say about critical roles God intends for grandparents in the family.
Session 2: WISE UP!
Understanding the times and knowing what to do impacts how we fulfill three essential roles of biblical grandparenting.
Session 3: BUILD UP!
One of the most overlooked, transformational tools God has given to us to help our children and grandchildren succeed in life and understand God’s purpose for them is the spoken blessing. This session unpacks the what, why and how of this powerful tool.
Session 4: GEAR UP!
Grandparents' impact upon grandchildren rests to a great extent upon the relationship we have with our adult children. This session discusses five anchor points that make it possible for us to build and maintain healthy relationships and to mend broken ones.
Session 5: STEP UP!
Grandparents matter, but only if they choose to matter. How do we now fulfill that biblical responsibility to pass the baton of faith to the next generations? Where do we go from here?
