     Start 'Em Young: What does it look like to teach our young children about God
     in a world that says that we have to let them make their own choices? Luke
     LaRocque, MBC's Director of Ministry, is in the middle of raising a young family
     himself. Join him and other parents for a conversation about how to teach our
     kids to follow God as they grow up in a difficult world. Who knows? You may
     walk away with some useful resources that your family will use!

     Hope For Hurting Parents: A facilitated discussion time to encourage parents
     through the hard seasons. Come on out to engage in conversations with other
     parents who ‘get it’. Some tools and resources to help build resilience as parents    Week 1:                 Week 2:                Week 3:             Week 4:
