Have you been concerned with the world your child is growing up in regarding media, politics, and social agendas? Do you want to learn ways to have direction over your child’s spiritual growth? Interested in being the best wife and mom you can be, all while enjoying life? I have discovered many ways to help Christian moms navigate these concerns of faith, family, and life, which are all included in this podcast. I’m Jennifer Bosma, and I’m so excited that you are here on my Front Parking Spot podcast.

In this episode, the guests share their personal stories of coming to faith, the desire to help kids experience God now (not later), and why fiction can be one of a parent’s best discipleship tools. Gail and Jen describe concrete practices moms can use at home: looking for how God is on display in Scripture, using teachable moments (like counting grains of sand to illustrate Psalm 139), creating a safe, nonperformative space for kids to practice listening to God, and giving gentle guardrails to help children test what they think they hear against the Bible. They also discuss varying prayer styles in kids, how to respond when a child’s prayer receives an unexpected answer, and how to pastorally walk with children through grief, doubt, and resistance to faith. The authors introduce their new middle-grade mystery series (book one: The Mystery of the Missing Falls), aimed at ages 8–12 (reading-level ~third grade). The story follows cousins and kid detectives who model different prayer approaches as they solve a town mystery—showing how quality fiction can open hearts to spiritual growth. Practical bonuses include a \"secret clues\" debrief on KingswellKids.com with chapter quotes, connected Bible verses, and parent-friendly conversation prompts to help families talk through each chapter. Key takeaways include: prioritize relationship over religion, model honest faith (it’s okay to say “I don’t know”), lean into God’s sovereignty while inviting kids to bring their questions to Him, and use everyday moments and stories to help children build a personal, tangible faith.
