"God’s purpose for the comforts he gives us is not that we would hoard them, but that we would be a conduit of comfort for other people."
Christine Chappell, author of Help! My Teen is Depressed, joins host Bethany Barendregt for a conversation about how to give our kids true, biblical comfort when they’re hurting. This isn’t about empty platitudes or band-aid fixes, but rather acknowledging our children’s suffering while pointing them to the trustworthy and eternal promises of God. Christine and Bethany discuss how we should respond to our children in these situations, and take a look at the comfort God’s word offers.
