S14E07 Sin, shame and guilt

In today’s episode, Anna and Jess talk about the complex topics of sin, shame and guilt. They acknowledge that whilst we might have different theological views or backgrounds, as parents and carers we want to make sure that our children and teens have a good understanding of these concepts in a way that helps them continue to connect with God and build relationship with Him. They use the Parenting for Faith Key Tools of Unwinding and Chat & Catch to help unpack these ideas and equip you with how to talk to the children in your life about them.
