Your November Resources Are Here!
So…finding a funny .GIF on anxiety and 2020 was the easiest work we have done all year. Now to the good stuff…
We originally set out to offer you a brief snippet on anxiety within last’s month content, but the Lord had much more in store. Like loaves and fishes, one interview turned into three podcasts, a fabulous Toolbox Resource, and more.
Centered around how to help families lead (step four in the M2P Roadmap of building a parent ministry), you can offer families HOPE amidst a global pandemic.
A BIG thank you to Jason Gibson, from @lunchwithjason_ and parenttv.com, who offered his expertise and wisdom for the content. Be sure to invite your families to follow @lunchwithjason_ for parenting ideas in real life.
As we move into the Thanksgiving season, we are very aware of the privilege and responsibility of supporting you in your ministry. Thank you for the opportunity.

THANKSGIVING: 3 GRATITUDE ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN
Thanksgiving is soon approaching, and this U.S. holiday is an incredible season for parents to be able to pass down their faith. In 1 Thessalonians 5:18, it says, “Be thankful in all circumstances for this is God’s will for you, for those who belong to Christ Jesus.” So we offer parents a short video themed on Thanksgiving with 3 easy, practical activities you can do with your children to teach gratitude.
Click “Online Parenting” to view your OPC, video script, social media swag, and direct-to-parent emails.
*Some leaders send themed material to parents. If this is you, be sure to check out the OPC Library for videos on Anxiety.
Anxiety is on the rise as teenagers figure out how to live life in a global pandemic. What masks do I wear in school? How do I meet with teachers online? Why do I have to sit six feet apart from my friends at the game? (We really do feel for those teenagers right now…can they really stay far apart?!?). And because students feel anxiety, so do their parents. Therefore, M2P kicks off a new series for church leaders on how to help your families deal with anxiety.

What Is It?
For years, Jeremy Lee, Founder and Co-Owner of Ministry to Parents, presented parent seminars around the country on the parents leading their kids spiritually. A trend began to form in his discussion with parents after the seminar. They didn’t want to talk about spiritual leadership, but instead, they had other questions.
He realized, before he could ever help parents connect to their kids’ souls through spiritual leadership, he realized he had to help them connect to their kids’ hearts through a healthy relationship.
Jeremy worked to put the material together and then hit the road going to several churches to practice the material and get feedback. After ten years of leading parent seminars, he never had such positive feedback from parents!
So Jeremy recorded the material to make the Heart and Soul Parenting Seminar accessible for everyone anywhere.
