What does it actually look like to disciple children in everyday life? In this episode, Jessie Cruickshank sits down with Natalie Werking to explore how parents and churches can partner together to nurture lasting faith in the next generation. They discuss why simple, everyday faith conversations matter more than having all the right answers, how discipleship changes as children grow, practical "Velcro habits" that weave spiritual practices into daily routines, and why creating space for curiosity and questions is essential. Whether you're a parent, pastor, or ministry leader, this conversation offers practical encouragement and a hopeful vision for helping children discover and follow Jesus.

Jessie Cruickshank is a disciple-maker, wilderness guide, and ordained minister. She has trained thousands of people how to survive when their life depended on it and earned a Master’s degree in experiential education at Harvard to learn how the brain works to help people train more effectively.

The key to discipleship is not more information, but learning how to create intentional environments where people can learn and grow. By working with the brain and treating individuals as whole persons, you too can discover how God wired our brains for transformation. You already have all the tools you need, it is time to activate them in you and your church.
