Losing Your Marbles

Time with children is precious and limited, with only 936 weeks from birth to age 18. Children hear approximately 148,000 negative messages by age 18, making positive parental influence crucial. Five key statements can help make every moment count: expressing presence, offering encouragement, prioritizing Jesus, setting boundaries, and emphasizing spiritual foundation. Parents must be intentional about using their time wisely to build faith, character, and strong relationships with their children.
