S6Ep41: Raising Disciples →
This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Sarah Humphrey talk with author Dr Teresa Roberts about her new book Raising Disciples.
Every childfrom infancy to adolescenceis being discipled by someone or something. The question is: Are you willing to disciple them for Jesus sake?
Accessible and actionable for parents of children birth to 13 years old, Raising Disciples offers a detailed discipleship map and directional markers to nurture your childs spiritual growth with Christ.
During her more than 25 years in childrens ministry alongside her academic work training up childrens ministry leaders, Dr. Teresa Roberts noticed that parents and even childrens ministry leaders seemed to struggle with knowing how to disciple children past the more-intuitive preschool ages. A foundational family and ministry resource, Raising Disciples reflects the developmental needs that will empower children to grow in their knowledge of Gods Word, develop a vocabulary of faith, engage in spiritual practices, and cultivate a deep, personal relationship with God. Featuring intuitive, quick-reference visual aids, researched expertise, real-life examples from the ministry of Jesus, and relational warmth, Raising Disciples is a must-have resource to give you a discipleship pathway for raising spiritually grounded children in today's complex world.
Includes additional tools:
- Discipleship map from birth to adolescence
- Discipleship reference by age level
- Resource list for continued discipleship and training in biblical interpretation
- Discussion questions for childrens ministry leaders and volunteers
Learn how to equip your child with tools to navigate lifes challenges and make their Christian faith a personal and lasting commitment.

S6Ep40: Sparrows from Jason Gray →
This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Sarah Humphrey talk with acclaimed singer, songwriter and now author Jason Gray about his new children's book, Sparrows.
Critically acclaimed Centricity Music singer/songwriter Jason Gray debuts his first childrens book, Sparrows, based on his popular award-winning song by the same name. Drawing inspiration from this radio hit off his 2016 album Where the Light Gets In, Gray joined creative forces with noted childrens author Jes Woller and illustrator Hilary Griffith in the release of this heartwarming childrens hardcover book geared to kids ages three to eight.
I've always dreamed of writing a children's book, declares Jason Gray, And when Centricity Music offered to partner with me in that endeavor, I sat down with my friend Kory Henkel, Director of Marketing and Communications, to discuss which of my songs had a message that could translate well to children. Sparrows was the obvious pick!
From there we brainstormed about a storyline that would be age appropriate and meaningful, ultimately collaborating with co-writer Jes Woller, who has a real gift for speaking the language of children, continues Gray. The process resulted in the story of Ellie, a little girl who struggles daily with stuttering, and how she overcame her anxiety by trusting God with her worries and responding to bullying with love, kindness and compassion instead of retaliation.
With a genuine heart for connecting with others and known for the compassionate honesty and authenticity he offers through his music, Gray drew from his own personal experience and shares that Matthew 6:25-34 and Matthew 10:29-31 are the cornerstone verses for both the song and the book, each addressing the theme of trusting God in the face of anxiety and worry. As a child, Gray struggled with a speech impediment, so incorporating this into the storyline of Sparrows was a way to share his own struggles in hopes of helping others.
