Natasha Crain’s book “Talking With Your Kids About Jesus” is a must have resource for parents to help them answer some of the difficult questions kids ask about Jesus, and to equip them with a solid foundation for their faith. This book is easy to read and understand. It is divided into five parts, each designed to help you answer your child’s questions about the truth of Jesus’s life, death, resurrection and the difference Jesus makes. Natasha’s latest book provides good reasons for why Jesus was more than just an itinerant preacher, but that he was God incarnate and the only hope for humanity. In today’s secular culture, kids are bombarded by all sorts of truth claims that portray Christianity as anachronistic, unscientific or just untrue. This book will give parents the knowledge and confidence to help their kids understand the facts surrounding Jesus and why he is the only way to salvation and eternal life.
Great resource for Christian parents!

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to spend some time with your kids, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Natasha Crain’s new book, Talking With Your Kids About Jesus. As Christian parents, we need to do so much more than teach them to memorize Scripture and show up for church each week (although these things are important, too). We need to be able to explain why we believe what we believe. Christianity is a reasonable, defendable faith and this book breaks what can sometimes seem like tough or intimidating conversations down into short, easy-to-understand, evidence-based tidbits that can be tailored for any age. With so much uncertainty and instability going on in the world around us, this is the perfect time to invest in growing our children in their walk with Jesus.
This is an essential resource for parents

Have you ever had a child ask a question about Jesus, but not know where to start? "Talking to Your Kids About Jesus" by Natasha Crain - Christian Mom Thoughts Blog is just the place to start. The book is divided into sections that each explore the depth of information about the aspects of Jesus' life on earth, His ministry, teachings, and practical issues that address history and theology. Each chapter is enriched with scriptural context while being organized to inform and engage your children with simple, yet useful answers. Key points are summarized after each chapter, and valuable suggestions advance these conversations further and encourage critical thinking. Simply put, I cannot think of a better place to start than in this book. #talkingtoyourkidsaboutjesus.

Every parent (and those who work with children and teens), grab this book! We know we ought to help our kids understand the life and work of Jesus Christ, but how many of us fumble around, feel inadequate and unequipped? This book is a TOOL you’ll want in your toolbox. While you ought to read through it in its entirety, it will continue to be useful for years to come as a resource to access by topic. Each chapter is short and succinct, giving a handy wrap-up and conversation starters at the end. These 30 conversations are indeed aimed at the child’s spiritual growth, but it will also challenge the reader’s own ability to stand in a well-grounded faith. I'm excited to put this into practice with my own six children.
