Christianity Is More Than Rules - Teaching Kids to Follow Jesus from the Heart
In this episode of The Project Revival Podcast, Emily and Laura explore one of the biggest misconceptions about the Christian faith: that being a Christian simply means following a list of rules. Scripture paints a much different picture.
Using Deuteronomy 6, they discuss how biblical parenting isn’t about raising well-behaved children—it’s about raising sons and daughters whose hearts genuinely love the Lord. Real faith begins with a relationship with Jesus and is lived out in everyday moments at home.
Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, mentor, or simply someone seeking a deeper walk with Christ, this conversation will encourage you to move beyond outward behavior and toward authentic discipleship.
