Family Ministry. Parent Ministry. Equipping Parents. All three of these are talked about in a variety of ways and the conversation regarding how to best partner with parents has elevated in recent years. This is a good thing! We’d all likely agree with the general logic that better parents = better families = better for the students we care about so much!

The difficulty is that we only have so much time in our day. How is it even possible to contemplate adding a focus on parents to our full plates and busy schedules?

What if you had a resource that strongly communicated to parents that you desire to partner with, and not replace, them?

What if you could consistently encourage, coach, and equip parents throughout the year?

What if a great step in the right direction was as simple as sending an e-mail or posting on Facebook once a week?
Enter U<60.

Each episode is less than 60 seconds and provides encouraging tips and perspectives to help parents thrive in their role as the primary spiritual influencers of their kids. U<60 inspires parents to follow Jesus and help their kids do the same. There are 52 episodes, plus a bonus intro episode, which can be sent once each week for a year.

The team who wrote/created U<60 is made up of veteran parents who have personal experience with the topic of each episode. The team collectively holds degrees in family systems therapy, adolescent development, education and biblical studies.

The concepts shared in U<60 come from a wide variety of resources, including: Sticky Faith (Powell), Spiritual Parenting (Anthony), Teenology (Burns), Revolutionary Parenting (Barna), Single Parenting That Works (Leman), and Parenting with Love and Logic (Cline/Fay).
