Part 1
If kids are the future of our culture and our nation, then their mental health issues, such as the rise of depression and anxiety, must be addressed. We need to be intentional in helping our kids learn who they are in Christ. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton interviews Dr. Kathy Koch (pronounced Cook), founder and president of Celebrate Kids, Inc., and the author of Resilient Kids: Raising Them to Embrace Life with Confidence. Learn more about Kathy’s heart to be a mental health advocate for kids of all ages, and to help parents teach their children how to be confident and resilient in any situation.

Part 2
The definition of resilience is, “The capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties.” According to Dr. Kathy Koch, in order to be resilient, our children must learn from and adapt with the trials of life. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. Tim Clinton and Dr. Koch continue their conversation about building endurance in our kids. Listen as Dr. Koch shares how parents can speak strength into their children’s lives, and by doing so, they will become trained for how to cope with life’s inevitable traumas, both big and small. Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go: even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
