Ep 54 | Three Steps to Hold Loosely to Our Kids

Mother with long red hair and a purple sweatshirt smiling next to her son in a black sweatshirt with short brown hair both standing in front of a large red rock.

One way to avoid creating idols is to hold things we love loosely – hold our kids loosely, hold our finances loosely, hold our passions or hobbies loosely. When we hold on too tightly is when these things can consume us and turn into idols that control us. Today we’re going to talk about this in relation to our kids. I’m sure we’ll discuss the other topics further in other episodes, but there’s enough to talk about just in this one area.
