Kids, Fear, and Helping Your Adult Children with Max Lucado

Epigenetics is real. In other words, there’s a trickle down effect onto our kids based on our beliefs, feelings, and the environment in which we raise them. In this episode, Pastor Max Lucado joins the show to talk about helping parents meet children in their anxious thoughts. Having written multiple books on anxiety, Pastor Lucado has a new 90-day devotional called Calm Thoughts for Kids, and joins the show to talk about what he’s seeing as a grandparent and how parents today can help their kids with their anxious days. Having just become a grandparent for the sixth time, and about to be the seventh time, Pastor Lucado also talks about how grandparents can come alongside their adult children in raising their grandchildren.
