Send us a textHow do you actually pass your faith on to your kids when you feel like a hot mess most days and your life looks nothing like those “perfect Christian family” posts on Instagram?That is exactly what we talk about in this episode of Encounters at the Well as I sit down with one of my dearest friends, Keely Kuehner, a mom of three boys, new mother in law, and very proud Kiki to a four year old granddaughter who loves “God’s promises” and Noah’s ark.Keely is not sharing a parenting formula. She is sharing a lived-out testimony of imperfect parents, real struggles, and a very faithful God.In this conversation we talk about:Growing up in a military family and how early seeds of faith were planted through grandparentsHow she and her husband started praying for their kids, their friends, and even their future spouses before they were bornSimple, everyday ways to weave faith into your homeBedtime prayers and Bible storiesPraying over mealsServing together at church and in outreachWhy loving and serving your spouse is one of the most powerful discipleship tools your kids will ever seeThe pressure moms feel to “get it right” and what happens when your worth is tied to how well you performHonest talk about mom guilt, “I’m not enough,” and that nagging comparison with other familiesHow to handle it when your child struggles spiritually or pulls away from GodStanding on Proverbs 22:6The power of praying and fasting for your kidsTrusting that God is still working when you see zero resultsWe also dive into:Modeling grace at homeLetting kids fail without shaming themCorrecting behavior while keeping love secureShowing your children that nothing they do can separate them from your love, or from the love of GodLetting your kids see your own struggles so they know it is normal to need JesusWorship as spiritual oxygen when you are barely holding it togetherHow God used one worship song on repeat as a lifeline in a hard seasonKeely also shares about the legacy she longs to leave her children and grandchildren, not just that “Mom was nice” or “Kiki was fun,” but that she fought for them on her knees, prayed heaven down over their lives, and loved them with the heart of Christ.If you are a Christian mom who:Wonders if you are doing enough spiritually for your kidsFeels like your “quiet time” is mostly reheated coffee and interrupted prayersIs grieving a child who seems to be wanderingWants practical ideas to bring faith into normal, everyday lifethis episode will give you both gentle conviction and a lot of relief. You do not have to be a perfect mom to raise kids who know and love Jesus.
