Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Focus on the Family Weekend: April 04. - April 05. 2025
Q: How can parents make scripture relatable to kids?
By using family-centered activities like Psalm 1 repetition, discussion in everyday settings (car rides, meals), and books that present theology in kid-friendly language and examples.
Focus on the Family Weekend: April 04. - April 05. 2025
Q: Why is Good Friday considered 'good' in a Christian context?
Because its outcome—Jesus' crucifixion—accomplishes salvation and reconciliation with God, not because the event itself is pleasant; the death is the means by which redemption is offered to humanity.
Focus on the Family Weekend: Feb 21. - Feb 22. 2025
Q: What inspired you to create that character?
Holleman drew from real-life experiences and the common negative feelings surrounding middle school, aiming to help girls understand their identity in Christ through fictionalized narratives.
Focus on the Family Weekend: Feb 21. - Feb 22. 2025

Stay really calm and ask good questions. Engage them in conversations about their stresses and help them develop journaling practices to process their emotions.
Focus on the Family Weekend: Jan 3. - Jan 4. 2025
Q: What are common mistakes that parents make trying to help their kids process their emotions?
