Hi friends!  It's almost time for County Fair here, and with that comes a lot of reflecting about the kids and their growth doing livestock projects.  Today we're talking about the power of animals and livestock in the lives of our kids, and how responsibility, work ethic, and good mentors can launch kids into a new level of self-confidence doing hard things even when they don't want to or think they can't.  Whether you are interested in 4-H, FFA or giving your kids the responsibility of raising livestock outside of a formal program, this episode gives insight into some unexpected benefits when kids grow up raising animals.   All the Best!

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, co-hosts Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy dive into the theme of raising gender confident kids, drawing insights from their book, "Raising Gender Confident Kids." They emphasize the importance of two foundational postures in parenting: compassion and hope. Dr. Kathy explains how compassion involves meeting children's struggles with understanding and care, while hope focuses on having confidence in God's redemptive work in their lives. Join them as they explore how these attitudes can help build identity and gender confidence in children, particularly during challenging times.

In today’s culture of gender confusion, many children struggle with understanding their identity. Dr Jeff Myers and Dr. Kathy Koch will provide us with a clear and compassionate framework to help our children confidently embrace the unique design God has for them. Our guests are experts in the Christian worldview and child development, and they will help us discover the tools to instill truth, hope, and confidence while also navigating the complexities of gender ideology.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Dr. Michael Easley welcomes back Dr. Jeff Myers—president of Summit Ministries and author of the new book Raising Gender-Confident Kids. They begin with a candid conversation about Israel's unique geopolitical role, the apocalyptic ideology driving Iran, and the rising anti-Israel sentiment among young Americans. Dr. Myers explains how misinformation, poor education, and Marxist ideology have shaped a generation that views Israel and America as colonial oppressors. The conversation then shifts to the troubling rise in gender confusion among children and young adults. Drawing from his book, Dr. Myers exposes the well-funded, ideologically driven agenda behind radical gender ideology, the manipulation of language, and the alarming influence of social media. He highlights how biblical truth, parental presence, and real conversations can bring clarity and hope. Takeaways Israel's conflict is deeply tied to Iran's apocalyptic ideology, not just geopolitics. Social media is the accelerant fueling unprecedented gender confusion among young people. The manipulation of language is intentional—designed to reshape worldviews and suppress dissent. Nearly 40% of American young adults now identify as LGBTQ, including 30% within the church. Public schools are actively indoctrinating children with gender ideology, often without parental knowledge. Biblical truth and parental love are essential to raising secure, gender-confident kids.

The discussion centers around the importance of understanding identity and security in children's lives, highlighting how confusion about identity can impact their core needs. Dr. Kathy emphasizes the significance of recognizing God as a good creator and the implications of Genesis 1:27, which states that humans are created in God's image, male and female. The conversation stresses the foundational role of security in faith and identity, encouraging listeners to embrace these truths for the well-being of their children. Pre-orders for the book are available at CelebrateKids.com.

'If I feel awful and disgusting, then I'm going to put on a mask.' Exploring the psychological depths of sexual shame, Dr. Tina Sellers shares cutting-edge research on the cycles of guilt that inhibit our relationships.

Her revolutionary perspectives have been expressed on platforms such as Spirituality & Health, Refinery 29, Vocal, Medium, and Bust Magazines, along with many podcasts, radio, news, and TV outlets.

Her latest book, Shameless Parenting – Everything You Need to Raise Shame-free, Confident Kids and Heal Your Shame Too! was a New Release Bestseller in eight categories.

SENCOs, school leaders & class teachers are currently spending large amounts of time supporting or responding to the concerns of parents of SEN children. However, much of this support is reactive and can feel like constant firefighting. A strategic approach to parental support is needed. Sarah Billingham, a specialist teacher with over 18 years of experience, returns to the studio to discuss ‘How can schools support parents of SEN children more effectively'. Sarah highlights the importance of effective communication between schools and parents. Here are some key takeaways from their conversation: Clear and timely communication: Helps prevent misunderstandings. Schools should proactively inform parents about the support being provided, rather than waiting for issues to arise. Understanding parent perspectives: Both parents and school staff often bring their own frustrations and expectations into interactions. Recognising this can help foster a more collaborative environment. Building Community: Establishing support networks for parents can alleviate feelings of isolation and empower them to engage positively with the school. The importance of positive feedback: Frequent negative communication can create an adversarial atmosphere. Schools should strive to balance this by sharing positive achievements and experiences. Proactive strategies: Implementing standard operating procedures for communication can streamline processes and reduce workload for staff while keeping parents informed. I hope you find these insights valuable in improving the support provided to families of children with SEN.

Playing with our kids doesn't always come naturally to parents. For some of us, it might feel uninteresting, repetitive, or as though the only way to participate is by taking over. But today's conversation might just change the way you think about play. We're diving into the transformative power of play as a form of communication that allows our kids to feel safe while exploring what's going on inside them. Joining me is Georgie Wisen-Vincent, an expert in play therapy and co-author, alongside Dr. Tina Payne Bryson, of the new book The Way of Play: Using Little Moments of Big Connection to Raise Kind and Confident Kids. In today's episode, Georgie shares insights from The Way of Play and explains why play is a universal language that helps kids express their feelings and navigate life's challenges. We discuss how parents can intentionally use play to strengthen bonds, nurture sibling relationships, and reconnect after time apart. Georgie also offers practical strategies for engaging in play effectively, such as mirroring your child's play to deepen connection and understanding. Plus, we explore how play isn't just for kids—it's a lifelong skill that can enhance relationships at every stage of life.   About Georgie Wisen-Vincent Georgie Wisen-Vincent, LMFT, RPT-S, ECMHS is a nationally recognized play therapy expert and co-author (with Dr. Tina Payne Bryson) of the new book -- THE WAY OF PLAY (Penguin Random House, January 2025).
