Become a Sustainer and receive the book "Growing Up & Growing Together"
If the Practice Makes Parent podcast has strengthened your parenting, would you help pass that help to more families?
You want your kids to love Jesus and think biblically. Yet a thousand voices compete for their hearts, and it’s hard to know what to do at each age and stage.
When you join Friends of Focus on the Family with $15/month or more, you’ll fuel Christ-centered tools for your home—and for families everywhere.
When you join today, we’ll email you a donation receipt with a link to download the PDF of the unreleased book Growing Up & Growing Together.
Drawn from 25+ years of experience, Growing Up & Growing Together turns guesswork into guidance. Organized by age (birth–18), it shows what to expect in your child’s spiritual, emotional, mental, relational, and physical growth, and how to respond with simple, grace-filled steps you can use today.
Inside you’ll find:
- Age-by-age snapshots that explain what’s happening and what helps now, so you parent with confidence, not panic.
- Faith-first coaching with short prayers, Scripture, and everyday practices that point your child to Jesus.
- Seven Traits of Effective Parenting, a Focus on the Family original, applied at each stage with practical help for boundaries, grace, and gratitude.
- Resilience builders that nurture identity in Christ, empathy, self-control, and strong connection.
In addition, Friends of Focus on the Family sustainers receive:
- Quarterly live Q&A calls — with trusted Focus experts. Recordings are available if you miss one.
- Monthly faith-focused products — choose up to five curated books, CDs, or magazines each month to build your family library.
