    TMV: Episode 53 – Daughters – Part 2

    In the first episode in our two-part series on daughters, we discussed the importance of making the gospel the foundation of our relationships with our daughters. In today’s episode, we’re going to be focusing more specifically on how we can talk to our daughters about sex and relationships, dressing in a way that honors Christ, and how to approach them during their teenage years. It’s impossible to prevent our daughters from being subjected to all sorts of information on social media, and in their social circles, but the important thing is that you are giving them the truth. In order to be in a position where our daughters feel like they have a soft place to land and they trust our guidance, it’s important that we spend quality time with them. If you already feel like you don’t have enough time in the day, don’t worry, even just having a conversation in the car on the way to school can be very valuable if you create the right environment!

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • The value of coming up with your own definition of modesty within your family.
    • Examples of how to speak to your daughters about dressing appropriately.
    • When to start having conversations about relationships and sex.
    • The importance of making sure that our daughters are aware of the difference between good and bad attention.
    • Jismarie shares a traumatic experience from her youth, and the healing journey that she has been on.
    • The importance of facilitating a strong family structure.
    • Kira shares the story of the tattoo that she got with her daughter.
    • Why spending time with our daughters is such a valuable practice.
    • Advice for moms who feel like they don’t have enough time to spend quality time with their daughters.
    • Our thoughts on how to alleviate tension in the home that often arises when our daughters become teenagers.
    • Full Circle Parenting; a resource which we would highly recommend for your parenting journey.

    TMV: Episode 52 – Daughters – Part 1

    If you are the mother of a daughter (or daughters), the next two episodes are for you! In part one of our series on daughters, we discuss why it is so important that the word of God forms the foundation of our relationships with our children. As moms, our main job is to teach our daughters how to live out the truths of the gospel, and these lessons start from the moment they are conceived in our womb. In today’s world, there is no place better than the home to impart biblical lessons, and although there are many challenges on the journey of raising a daughter, by weaving conversations about God’s design and His redemption into their lives from a young age, you will see the enormous benefit it brings to their lives.

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • Why the gospel should form the foundation of every conversation we have with our children.
    • An explanation of the concept of 3 Circles.
    • The conflict that can arise in pre-teen and teenage years, and advice for moms who have daughters going through this transitionary period.
    • The problem of allowing our daughters to be exposed to social media at a young age.
    • Examples of how we know that our children are learning the word of God through the conversations that we have with them.
    • Advice on how to talk to your daughters about the topic of singleness.
    • Male role models that you can direct your daughters towards if they don’t have a father figure.
    • What it means to be biblically submissive, and how we can pass these lessons on to our daughters.
    • The disservice that churches are doing by not speaking openly and honestly about biblical manhood and womanhood.
