Before we jump into specific resources for individual age groups, here are just a couple of different podcasts that we believe have some great ideas and conversations for Christian parenting. We would recommend subscribing to any one of these podcast and listening to them on your commute, doing chores, etc.

Below, you will find resources from books to videos, podcasts and articles, that we believe are helpful to raising and discipling your children in the ways of Christ. We’ve organized our resources by specific age groups for children. If you know of a resource that you have found helpful would like to share or maybe you don’t see something you are looking for, feel free to email aly@area10church.com. We would like to keep growing and updating the resources on this page.
