Parenting is hard. Yet, there is hope!
This August 1 – 7, we’ll celebrate our first-ever Connected Families Week of Sharing. We will share impact stories and invite joyful generosity. This 7-day sharing and giving challenge unites our community—parents, donors, staff, and friends—through philanthropy.
You can make a big difference
by sharing your story.
How big?
Life changing big!
We continue to hear story after story of how Connected Families coaching, online courses, podcasts, and blog posts are tools used by God to heal brokenness and transform chaotic families into ones of deep connection.
You can help raise awareness and funds that will provide generational transformation in families.
Your advocacy might introduce a weary mom or dad to the Christ-centered parenting Framework that they have been desperately seeking. Your kind generosity provides messages of safety, love, calling, and responsibility – messages of hope for families – messages rooted in Christ. Your support changes lives.
Will you join us in sharing, in giving and in changing lives?

When you find something good, you talk about it, right?
We hope that the grace-filled Connected Families Framework is one of those good things you just can’t help but talk about.
Your voice is needed during the Connected Families Week of Sharing.
Your voice matters, your story inspires, and your sharing might just be exactly what your friend or neighbor has been desperately praying for.
- What were your biggest challenges before finding Connected Families?
- What tool or teaching of Connected Families has profoundly shaped your parenting journey?
- What’s different now? How has your family grown and/or changed?
Momentum is building. Parents are seeking support. They are stressed, sleep-deprived, and strained.
Your help is needed to meet them in their moments of desperation. You can help transform families from chaos to connection.
Your sponsorship will be a megaphone getting the word out about the heart-transforming empowerment of the Connected Families Framework. Messages of safety, love, calling, capability, and responsibility will replace messages of fear, shame, inadequacy, and irresponsibility.

Download a FREE ebook, Four Messages Every Child Longs to Hear, and send it to a friend. It could be a great resource for you as you share your story. And it might just be what your friend has been praying for.
Start with the Framework.
Reflect on the messages your parenting is sending. Share with your friend or small group how you are helping your children feel SAFE with you and LOVED no matter what. Share about how you are COACHING your children to understand their calling and their God-given capabilities. Talk about how your kids are learning to be RESPONSIBLE for their actions and righting their wrongs.
Your advocacy can empower other families to communicate grace-filled messages, too.
Your friends might want to know that Connected Families seeks to fulfill a unique role in the Christian parenting space. We are:
Christ-centered
Biblically grounded
Research-informed
Trauma-sensitive
No politics
While unapologetically Christ-centered, we also let parenting, brain, and trauma research inform what we do and say. And we keep our focus on Jesus. Not politics.
