Helping Your Kids Navigate Social Media Discernment, Digital Safety, and Christ Centered Parenting

How do you help your kids stay grounded, wise, and safe in a digital world that’s constantly pulling at their attention — and their identity?

In this episode of The Project Revival Podcast, sisters Emily and Laura continue their series on social media by diving deep into discernment, digital safety, and Christ-centered parenting in the age of screens.

Together, they unpack:

• How Scripture shapes the way we approach technology

• Why every child needs guidance unique to their personality and struggles

• The real risks kids face online — and how to prepare them without fear

• How comparison, identity confusion, and online pressure shape young hearts

• What to do when your child sees something inappropriate or unsafe online How to build open communication, trust, and boundaries

• Practical tools: pausing, thinking, discerning, and filtering content

• The role of parents as guides, not police

• Why connection at home — especially around the dinner table — is your greatest defense

This is a must-listen for any parent navigating phones, apps, online friendships, or screen time with kids of any age.
