Parents matter when it comes to passing on the faith to children and youth. In part 1 of this series, Chris and John share personal stories of being parents as a reminder of what it is like to be a parent in the 21st century when it comes to raising children in the faith.
The ultimate question we ask as we launch into this series is this: how should our models of ministry change so that we are working with our parents more effectively?
In the episode, we share one piece of data about Mass attendance taken from the National Study of Youth and Religion.
