Episode notes
Kids' Imagination Is A Spiritual Superpower
- Children naturally blur imagination and reality until about age six or seven, making them highly receptive to perceiving God through images, feelings, music, and more.
- Jamie warns schools often train this capacity out, so early nurturing preserves a child's ability to receive spiritual impressions.
Model Daily Receiving Not Just Teaching
- Model receiving from God daily because children copy who you are becoming far more than what you tell them to do.
- Use the free Daily Affirmation Prayer (five minutes) and simplify it to build truth-filled neural pathways with your kids.
Practice The Listening Question Together
- After the Daily Affirmation Prayer ask, 'God, what do you want me to know today?' and then listen together with your children.
- Reframe questions for kids: ask what they sensed, a picture, or a feeling to normalize varied impressions.
