Faithful Grandparenting: Everyday Ways to Cultivate Spiritual Growth with Grandkids

Do grandparents have a role to play in their grandchildren's spiritual development, or are they just here for the cookies and hugs?

Today I'm joined by four inspiring grandmothers—Melissa Hyland, Dawn Stevens, Kate Battistelli, and Maureen Miller—who each believe that grandparenting is one of life’s greatest gifts AND a unique chance to help nurture the next generation’s spiritual journey.

Each woman brings a unique perspective and a heart full of wisdom on nurturing deep faith roots in the next generation.

So grab your gardening gloves (metaphorically speaking), and let's dig into a conversation about cultivating the spiritual lives of their grandkids.
