When God says ‘No’ to something our kids desperately want — making a team, a friendship, an invite — it can break their hearts… and ours too. 💔
In this episode, I share personal stories of God’s “no’s” in my own life and what I’ve learned over twenty years of parenting about walking with our kids through disappointment and unanswered prayers.
You’ll hear six practical and powerful ways to respond when your child faces a “no” from God, including:
How to sit with them in the sadness and say, “I hurt with you.”
How to remind them what’s true about God and about who they are in Him.
How to share your own stories of doubt and faith.
How to teach them to trust the God who never leaves — even when His answer isn’t yes.
This is a tender, hope-filled conversation about helping our kids grow in empathy, trust, and to see the goodness of God — even in the “no.”
Listen now to the latest episode of the No Way But Through podcast and you’ll be encouraged to see every “no” in your kids’ lives as an invitation for both of you to draw closer to God. And each other.
