Discipleship Resources for Families
At Crossroads, we believe that the primary shepherd of any child is their parent - but we are thankful for the opportunity to partner with the family to disciple children and teens well. Below are resources to help parents reach their children and students with the truth of the Word.
If you are starting on the journey of discipling your family, we recommend you begin with a good Bible and devotional series that you can do together. Not only will this pour into your child, but it will also uplift you and provide you with quality bonding time that will create lasting memories.
If you have any questions about further resources for your family, please reach out to either our Children or Student Pastor.
