Your child is not okay. I know that is hard to read. Because you have been working so hard to keep things as normal as possible. You have been civil. You have been careful. You have been trying. But your child is not okay. Not because you are failing. But because divorce and family separation are one of the most destabilizing things a child can experience. And children do not process it out loud. They process it in their behavior. In their body. In the quiet of their bedroom at night. Here is what your child may be carrying right now that they have never said out loud: "Is this my fault?" More children than you know believe their parents split up because of something they did or something they are. "If I am good enough will they get back together?" Children will silently perform for years trying to fix something that was never theirs to fix. "Which one do I have to choose?" Even when you've never asked them to choose they feel the pressure every single day. "Am I going to be abandoned too?" A parent leaving the home plants a seed of fear that the other parent might leave too. None of this is your fault for getting divorced. But it is your responsibility to address it. Your child needs to hear out loud, directly from you that none of this is their fault. That both parents still love them. That love does not require a shared address. That conversation might be the most important one you ever have. 💬 Have you ever asked your child directly how they feel about the family separation? What happened or what has stopped you from asking? Our next post will talk about How to talk to your child about divorce without making them carry your pain. Real language. Real boundaries. Real healing.

Maybe you have…Maybe you haven’t… But let me ask you something. What if the story God placed inside of you was meant to reach someone who needs it? What if one children’s book you create helps shape the mind of a child? What if one devotional encourages someone who is struggling in their faith? What if the message you’ve lived through becomes the message that helps someone else keep going? Books are powerful. One book can: • plant seeds of faith • teach values to children • inspire families • leave a legacy that lives long after we’re gone And the truth is… writing a book today is more possible than ever before. You don’t have to be a professional writer. You don’t have to be an illustrator. You just need a message, a story, or a vision. I’ve written 30+ self-published books, and now I’m teaching others how to do the same. Next week I’m hosting a Live Book Creation Bootcamp where I’ll walk you step-by-step through how to: ✍🏽 Write your book 🎨 Create illustrations 📚 Design your finished book Whether you want to create: • a children’s book • a prayer journal • a devotional • a coloring book • or a book that shares your story This bootcamp will help you finally start. Because your story matters. Your message matters. And one book could impact more lives than you realize. If you’ve ever felt the desire to write a book… This might be the moment to finally begin. If you can’t make the class due to scheduling everything will be recorded. So save you seat The details are in the link. https://www.thejourneytofindgod.com/adult-publishing

Welcome to Kingdom University 🖤I’m so glad you’re here. This community is for Christian parents who are trying to break generational cycles, raise emotionally healthy children, and stop parenting from survival mode. A lot of us love our kids deeply, but we were never taught how to discipline without yelling, how to stay consistent, how to teach our children about God, or how to heal from what we went through while still showing up for them. Inside Kingdom University, we focus on 4 things: 1. Healing the parent 2. Disciplining without becoming who hurt us 3. Raising children who know God 4. Equipping teens for real life and real faith Start here: Introduce yourself in the community and tell us: How old are your children? What is your biggest parenting struggle right now? What are you believing God to change in your home? You are not a bad parent.But you are responsible for breaking the cycle. Welcome home.

Maybe it's attitude. Maybe it's listening. Maybe it's screens. Maybe it's lying. Maybe it's anger. Drop it in the comments What’s the real struggle in your house right now?

What is ONE thing your parents did that you are intentionally trying to do differently with your kids? Not to bash them.Not to dishonor them. Just awareness. Maybe they: • Didn’t apologize • Didn’t talk about feelings • Yelled a lot • Were emotionally distant • Were too strict • Were too permissive • Avoided hard conversations And now you’re trying to break that pattern. Drop ONE thing below. And if you see someone who wrote something you relate to… Reply to them. We’re not just here to learn from me. We’re here to learn from each other. Let’s build real conversation today. 🧡
