Track Session 1: 10 Habits for Home Discipleship
Most parents just don't know where to start when it comes to discipleship with their children. Sometimes they just need a few good ideas to get going. So we're sharing proven ideas you can pass on to your families to help them get real traction with at-home discipleship. We all know that biblically, parents are responsible for training up their children in the way of the Lord. We also know that most don't do it on a regular basis ... if at all. That's where ministry leaders need to come in and fill the gaps, but they don't always know how. We'll bring some practical ideas that can be shared with parents to help them form consistent, doable discipleship habits at home.

Track Session 2: 5 Ways to Get Kids Engaged in Interactive Bible Teaching
Our kids get most of their information through viral videos and addictive apps like TikTok. So as ministry leaders, how do we keep up with that — keep them every bit as engaged with the message of the Word as they are with the messages of the world? Kids today are being fed an influx of ideas leading them in the opposite direction of the Bible. But research shows that if we can help them develop a strong understanding of the Bible in these early years — by age 13 — they're more likely to make a decision to follow Christ and stick with their faith, even after high school. This breakout reveals five key ways we can develop strong, biblical values in the next generation and plant seeds for lifelong faith.
