Start small. Pick one simple truth and repeat it throughout the day. Use natural moments—bedtime, car rides, mealtimes.

That’s normal! Keep it short. One truth repeated several times a day is better than one long lesson they tune out of.

There’s no set rule. Even one truth a day, repeated naturally, can have a powerful impact.

You don’t need to be an expert. Just share what you know. Your willingness to point your kids to Jesus matters most.
