Parenting Through the Teenage Trenches

Juli Bevere, Addison Bevere, Messenger International, Lisa Bevere, John Bevere
About this episode

In today's episode of At Home with the Beveres, we're stepping into some of the trenches of parenting. Addison, Juli, and Alec come together with special guest and next-gen Bevere, Asher to talk about the transition into the teenage years.

Adolescence is not just a stepping stone to adulthood; it's a season of profound growth and change. But how can we, as parents and mentors, become a true safe haven for our teens during these transformative years?

Today we take on transitions from boyhood to manhood, and discover some of the keys that unlock our children's hearts. We hope to equip you with practical insights that will guide your kids toward responsible and empowered adulthood.

Remember, as we journey alongside our children, we're reminded that where our efforts fall short, God steps in. Join us as we strive to bridge the gap between the 'now' and the 'next' in the lives of our teens" in this episode of At Home with the Beveres.
