37. Christ-Like Parenting Through Pain: How Jesus Restores Joy to Your Heart and Home
Do you long for joy in your parenting again, but aren’t sure how to get it back? If you have ever wondered: “How do I parent with joy when my heart feels broken?” This episode will show you exactly how Jesus meets you, heals you, and leads you back into joy. We explore how Jesus restores joy to your heart and home, even when you are parenting through pain, exhaustion, or emotional wounds. Many Christian parents want to cultivate a peaceful, joyful atmosphere, but the chaos of daily life — along with unhealed parts of our own story — can slowly drain that joy away. Drawing from John 17:13–15, Galatians 5:22–26, and Matthew 6:33, we uncover the biblical truth that joy is not something you produce — it is something Jesus gives.  This episode will equip you with practical “how-to” steps for Christ-like parenting in the middle of real-life chaos, helping you experience joy that isn’t dependent on your circumstances, but on the presence and power of the Holy Spirit and prayer spoken by Jesus Blessings, ✨ Tricia Scriptures Referenced John 17:13–16 — Jesus prays that His joy—not ours—would fill us, even while we live in a world filled with pressure. He doesn’t ask the Father to remove us from hard places, but to protect us as we walk through them. Galatians 5:22–26 — The Holy Spirit produces the fruit of joy in us as we learn to “keep in step” with His leading, letting Him shape our reactions, attitudes, and emotional responses as parents. Matthew 6:33 — Seeking God’s Kingdom first creates the daily space where the Holy Spirit cultivates joy, restores the heart, and provides everything we need as we parent through pain. Episode Call to Action: For the next seven days, set aside 15 minutes of praise and thanksgiving each day.Speak gratitude to Jesus.Welcome His presence.Create space for the Holy Spirit to cultivate joy in your heart and home.

Have you felt your child’s heart growing distant from God and wondered how to soften it again? Do you desire God’s rest in your home but feel worn down by spiritual resistance and constant battles In this episode of Grounded Kids Resilient Faith, I will guide Christian parents through Hebrews 3 and 4 to uncover how daily Scripture prevents hardened hearts and leads families into God’s rest.

34. Encouragement for Parents: God Is Fighting for Your Family (Exodus 14:13-14)
Have you ever feared that a moment with your child meant you were losing connection—or that something was slipping through your hands? In this episode, we explore the tender and emotional moments of parenting when a child pulls away—and how the Lord meets us there with the promise of Exodus 14:13–14. Through a personal story of hurt, reflection, and forgiveness, we look at how God steadies our hearts before we try to reach our children, and how shifting from pressure to gentle invitation creates space for Him to work. This conversation offers parents hope, perspective, and practical Christ-centered encouragement as you seek to raise resilient kids grounded in the ways of the Lord. Through the Holy Spirit’s help, you will discover that you don’t have to fix every moment—because God Himself is fighting for your family.

33. Strong Roots: The Christlike Traits That Help Kids Stay Faithful to Jesus Into Adulthood
When you think about your child’s future, do you feel pressure to “get it right” as a parent, instead of knowing what kind of Christlike character actually helps faith last? This episode gently slows down to look at the deep, quiet roots that help a child’s faith in Jesus remain resilient long after they leave home. Instead of focusing on behavior or performance, we explore five Christlike traits—integrity, courage, faithfulness, perseverance, and self-denial—that Scripture and Christian scholars describe as “strong roots” of spiritual resilience.  Rather than giving parents a checklist, this episode offers clarity and language for the kind of Christlike character that forms a strong foundation for long-term faith in Jesus. We talk about how integrity creates wholeness instead of dividedness, how courage is obedience fueled by God’s presence, how faithfulness is a lifelong attitude of allegiance, how perseverance grows through trials, and how self-denial is the daily “not my will, Lord, but Yours” that marks true discipleship.  The invitation is simple and gentle: to notice which root the Holy Spirit is highlighting for this season of your home, and to begin thinking less about “perfect parenting” and more about the kind of person your child is becoming in Christ. Blessings, ✨ Tricia Scriptures Referenced Proverbs 20:7, Proverbs 10:9, Proverbs 11:3, Joshua 1:9, Matthew 14:27, Hebrews 11:1, Hebrews 11:6, James 1:2–4, Luke 9:23 Resources / Study References: Integrity: Noah Webster (1828); W.

32. How the Holy Spirit Heals Parenting Pain and Transforms Your Reactions
Do your reactions ever surprise you—and leave you wondering why certain moments stir such deep frustration, hurt, or guilt? Are you longing for patience and peace in your parenting, but feel stuck in old patterns you can’t seem to change? In this episode, we explore how the Holy Spirit heals the pain beneath our parenting reactions and transforms the way we respond to our children. Drawing from Galatians 5:16–26, Dr. Tony Evans’ commentary, and emotional health research from the APA, Harvard Center on the Developing Child, UCLA Mindfulness Research Center, Pew Research, and the NIMH, we walk through a gentle framework for abiding with God, noticing triggers, naming what’s beneath them, and believing He can renew our minds.  Through testimony, Scripture, and practical neuroscience, you will learn why real change does not come from trying harder, but from walking closely with the Holy Spirit. This episode is for every parent who desires emotional healing, Spirit-led responses, and a home marked by peace rather than pain. Scriptures Referenced Galatians 5:16–26 (NLT) — Walking by the Spirit vs the flesh Psalm 139:23–24 (NLT) — Naming what’s inside with God John 15:4 (NLT) — Abiding as the source of spiritual fruit James 1:19–20 (NLT) — Slow to anger Romans 12:2 (NLT) — Renewing the mind Philippians 4:8 (NLT) — Fixing our thoughts on truth Commentary Referenced Tony Evans Bible Commentary, Galatians 5:16–26 — Walking by the Spirit as active dependence, not passive striving Research Referenced UCLA Mindfulness Research Center (Lieberman et al., 2023): Naming emotions calms the amygdala APA (2024) & Harvard Center on the Developing Child (2023): The amygdala reacts 6–8 seconds before the rational brain Pew Research (2023) & John Templeton Foundation (2023): Daily prayer, Scripture, and worship increase emotional resilience and relational peace National Institute of Mental Health (2023): Neuroplasticity—belief + repetition rewires emotional patterns Next Steps for Listeners Pause once a day when tension rises and whisper, “Holy Spirit, guide my response.”Notice one moment where God helped you respond with peace instead of reaction.Write it down — that’s the Holy Spirit growing His fruit in your parenting. Parenting from peace doesn’t start with trying harder — it starts with walking closer with Him. 💛 Connect With Me *Email: groundedminds.learning@gmail.com*Instagram: @grounded.kids.resilient.faith*Facebook: Grounded Kids Resilient Faith

31. How to Teach Your Kids Who God Really Is: A Gentle Guide to “God Is Holy Love”
Have you ever found yourself relating to God through the lens of past hurt, fear, or self-protection? Do you ever worry that the way you understand love might shape the way your children learn about God? In this episode, we begin a gentle and foundational journey of discipleship in the home by rediscovering who God truly is. Many of us learned to understand love through experiences of fear, inconsistency, or pain — and without realizing it, we may have come to see God through those same lenses. But Scripture reveals a different reality: God is Holy Love — pure, steady, trustworthy, protective, and self-giving. Together, we explore 1 John 4:9–19 and look at how God’s love is demonstrated in the person of Jesus.  We then walk through five truths that help us disciple our children in this holy love, not by striving to be better, but by returning to Christ and allowing His love to reshape how we parent. This episode invites us to receive the love of God slowly, gently, and consistently — so our children may learn to trust Him too. Blessings, ✨ Tricia Core Scripture: 1 John 4:9–19 (NLT) Additional Scripture: Romans 5:8 Romans 5:5 Revelation 3:19 Psalm 145:20 Psalm 97:10 Key Truth: God is Holy Love, and His love teaches us how to love.

30. Your Children Will Encounter Jesus Through Your Faith - Encouragement for Christian Parents
Have you ever wondered if what God is doing in you is actually shaping your children’s faith? This is a heartfelt reminder that your personal encounter with Jesus matters — more than you realize. Let me share a moment when I was completely undone in His presence, remembering His goodness and redemption. And what happened next was not about perfect parenting or doing more. It was not about trying harder. It was about dwelling with the Lord — worshiping Him, drawing near to Him (James 4:8), and letting my children see what a real relationship with Jesus looks like. The result……. My children encountered Jesus because I encountered Jesus.They’ll encounter Jesus because YOU encountered Jesus. Because your faith — lived, felt, witnessed — becomes the foundation of theirs. Your worship, your tears, your joy, your remembering -- It is shaping something eternal in your home. Let God draw near to you.He is faithful to meet you — and to meet your children through you. Blessings, ✨ Tricia Scripture in This Episode James 4:8 — Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Matthew 26:6–13 — The woman with the alabaster jar pouring out her love upon Jesus. Genesis 22 — Abraham’s faith passed to the next generation through trust in God.

God doesn’t just heal your pain—He renames your purpose.

21. Raising Resilient Kids to Live with God’s Purpose, Not perfection
Do you feel the pressure for your kids to “do it all right” — to get the grades, make the team, or always succeed? As parents, it’s easy to slip into perfectionism, but God never asked our children to be perfect. He designed them with a far greater purpose. In this episode of Grounded Kids Resilient Faith, we dive into five biblical keys that help you guide your kids to live with God’s purpose instead of chasing perfection. You will discover how to: Teach your kids humble dependence on God’s grace. Help them reflect God’s nature in daily life. Show them their impact on future generations. Remind them they were created with intentional design. Anchor their worth in Christ, not performance. You don’t have to raise perfect kids. You get to raise purposeful ones — kids who know their worth in Christ and build unshakable faith for the future.

18. Use Scripture as Your Anchor When You’re Spiritually Exhausted
Are you a Christian parent feeling spiritually exhausted, overwhelmed, or burnt out? In this episode of Grounded Kids Resilient Faith, we explore practical, biblical parenting strategies to restore your spirit and model unshakable faith for your children. Learn how to: Anchor yourself in Scripture and God’s promises Find rest in the Lord amid parenting challenges Model faith in everyday life so your children can stand firm in any storm From Jesus’ invitation to rest (Matthew 11:28-30) to following God’s example of Sabbath rest, this episode offers actionable guidance for faith-filled parenting and raising spiritually resilient kids. God is a steady, unshakable foundation. When your children see you resting in Him, they will stand firm in any storm. Blessings, ✨ Tricia Remember these steps to anchor your heart in God’s Word: Come to Jesus for rest: His invitation is clear—He offers you peace, not a heavier load. Trust His gentle guidance. Embrace the rest God has woven into creation: Recognize the Sabbath as a gift, a time to reflect, renew, and trust in God’s provision. Rest in God’s provision: Trust that He is your provider, and you don’t need to carry the burden of striving alone. Obey God’s call to rest: Rest isn’t passive; it’s active obedience to God’s commands and trusting that He will complete His work in you. Key Scriptures Referenced: Matthew 11:28-30 – Jesus offers rest and relief for the weary Genesis 2:1-3 – God’s example of rest in creation Exodus 16:23-30 – Trusting God through Sabbath rest Podcasting Opportunity:Curious about using podcasting to share God’s Word and encourage others?
