Making God Real to Your Kids - Jonathan & Carrie Cronkite
Monday, June 16, 2025
This FamilyLife Today episode, hosted by Dave and Ann Wilson, features Jonathan and Carrie Cronkite, who share their passion for making God real to their children through intentional family practices. The episode begins with a discussion about their recent experience on the FamilyLife Love Like You Mean It cruise, highlighting its uplifting atmosphere and authentic speakers. The Cronkites emphasize the importance of parents modeling faith at home, drawing from Jonathan’s 15 years as a student pastor, where he identified that kids with lifelong faith had parents who prayed and read scripture together. They introduce their PRAY acronym (Praise, Repent, Ask for others, Yourself) and the use of prayer rocks, inspired by Joshua 4, as visual reminders of prayer requests and answered prayers. These rocks, kept in a bowl and later moved to a memorial platter, help kids see God’s faithfulness. The episode addresses handling unanswered prayers, encouraging service to others, and modeling repentance to foster a genuine faith environment.
