In this episode, Diane sits down with Chris Ammen, a children’s pastor from Chattanooga, Tennessee, author of Raising Disciples at Home, and contributor to Kaleidoscope Kids Bibles. Chris shares his journey into children’s ministry, his passion for nurturing the spiritual and emotional health of children, and his vision for discipleship as a communal, grace-filled process. We explore what it means to raise kids in a Christ-centered way - without the pressure to be perfect parents. Chris offers guidance on how to integrate humility, emotional awareness, and behavioral instruction rooted in the example of Jesus.
