Ed Escobar and Bethany FarrellParenting Through Every Phase
December 8, 2025 ● 1 minShare this episode
As parents, we’ve all been there—your child falls in love with a new hobby every week. One day it’s soccer, the next it’s painting, and by Saturday they’re sure they’re starting a band. It can be exhausting, but it’s also a sacred opportunity.
In this short episode, we talk about how to nurture curiosity in your kids while helping them stay rooted in their true identity—found only in Jesus. Their interests may shift, but who they are in Christ never changes. As you encourage your child’s passions, take time to remind them that Jesus is the steady anchor through every season of discovery.
Takeaways:
-
Every new hobby is a chance to celebrate your child’s curiosity.
-
Encourage exploration—but remind them their worth isn’t found in what they do.
-
A child’s identity in Christ remains constant, even as their interests change.
-
Parenting is discipleship—use everyday moments to point them back to Jesus.
