PARENTING CONFERENCE

A Theology & Practice of Parenting


BREAKOUT SESSIONS

Training at Home – Preschool Director, Abbey Kelly

In this breakout session, parents will learn what it means to train their children at home both spiritually and physically. Parents will walk away with practical strategies that will help them see their child’s heart and not just their behaviors.  Join us as we talk about your home being the training ground for shaping their hearts.


Foundations and Fun in the Elementary Years – Children’s Director, Shelley Crowell

Elementary school years are a lot of fun and full of different milestones. These years are also a key time to build foundational Christian habits that will last for years to come. In this session, you will be given practical tips and tools to help you not only teach your children about Christ but for you to reflect Christ in your parenting. 


Dating and Purity for Preteens and Teens – Youth Pastor, Chase Bright

Dating can be good, but it can also be dangerous. As parents, how should we think about, talk to, and shepherd our teens and preteens on the topic of dating? In this breakout, hear from youth pastor Chase Bright as he seeks to help parents think through this crucial issue.


Navigating Smartphones, Social Media, and the World of Screens- Pastor Kory & Katie Cunningham

Our parents warned that TV would rot our brains. They didn’t. However, there is a stark difference between the TV you watched growing up and the smartphone your child holds in their hand. The difference is that you watch TV, while your teen’s smartphone watches them. This breakout will help you train your teen to use screens appropriately rather than be used by them. 


Launching Out of Your Home into the World- College Pastor, Chris Lawerance

Your child has graduated high school and now it is time to launch them into the real world… sounds scary right?!?! But do not be afraid,  in this session,  you will hear what challenges your child may face and the way you can support them spiritually during one of the biggest transitions in their life. 


Enjoying an Empty Nest and Grandparent Life – Bro Ricky & Celisa Cunningham

All the kids are out of the house, but you may be thinking now what?!? But your role as a parent is not quite over! You now get to support your children throughout major life events such as becoming more independent, marriage, and becoming parents themselves!
