Join us Sundays at 10AM in-person and online

We might be a student ministry, but students aren’t our only priority. We strive to help our parents be more intentional at home, and more connected to a community of faith. In short, we want to help you excel at being the parent God has made you to be.

We all need a little guidance and help every once and a while. Parenting is no exception! We want to partner with you, and pair you with the right resources for your family. We are learning alongside you, and we are all stronger together than we are by ourselves.

Here we'll post some books, apps, articles, tips, and more that might just help you be a more intentional and connected parent.

Books

Here are some of the books we've read, along with some (maybe) helpful information about the content. Hopefully, we can help you find a book that's worth taking the time to read all the way through.

Apps

In the information age, it's easy for our phones to become distractions that distance us from those around us while luring us into a false sense of relationship. What if we could use that same tool to make us more intentional, more connected parents?

As we find apps that can help shape the way we parent, we'll be sharing them here. We'd also love to hear from you! If you have a tool you love to use, and it's been helpful in your own family, please let us know.

Email Newsletters

Each month, we send out a parent newsletter. These contain upcoming event reminders, parent tips, questions, information about what we're teaching, and more.

If you missed one, you can find links to past newsletters here. If you'd like to start receiving these email newsletters, sign up for our mailing list here.

Podcasts

Podcasts are an easy way to learn more in the normal rhythm of your everyday life. Play them on your commute, while you're doing yard work, while you're getting ready for the day, or any other time.

Video Tips

Every month, we release a new video tip, designed just for our parents.
