In a seven-week bible study, we will focus on Dan Darling’s “Spiritual Gifts: What They Are and How to Use Them” to discover your spiritual gifts. This bible study is directed towards our preschool and early learning families as a part of our ongoing Nurturing the Parent-Child Connections series. To cultivate your child’s spiritual journey and gifts, you must first understand your spiritual gifts.

What are Spiritual Gifts? 

Spiritual gifts are abilities given by the Holy Spirit to empower us to serve God and others. They include gifts of wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, and many others. These gifts are not natural talents but supernatural endowments from God, used to build up the church and spread the gospel.

How long is this bible study, and when does it start? 

This bible study includes printed content for six sessions (plus one introductory session), five days of personal study between group sessions, and applicable Scripture. We will begin class on Thursday, May 29th, from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm in the craft room. Childcare will be provided in the Nursery in the Seton building. 

We will meet on the following dates: 

May 29th

We as a group of parents and educators, want to bring about a better world by nurturing the spirit of the child. Unlike teaching academic subjects, spiritual nurturing cannot be approached with detailed steps. In this class, we will talk about cultivating spirituality and learning a variety of ways to nurture your spirituality as a parent along with your child's. We hope that this series will bring you as parents further along in your own journey and inspire you to nurture carefully the delicate spirit of your child.

We do not have any classes scheduled for the Spiritual Life of the Child at this time.

We are currently publishing a weekly interactive guide for parents to help incorporate the practices and concepts discussed in the Spiritual Life of the Child classes. This interactive guide can be found on our Put Our Children First Patreon.
