I have a renewed and refreshed vision for discipling my children after reading Little Habits, Big Faith. Christie's approach and writing are inviting, accessible, and incredibly applicable no matter where you are at in your own faith walk and family. Her analogies are memorable and biblical application is solid and spot on. After raising, home educating, and discipling my children for years, and running a children's ministry, this is the book I needed to read. It has helped me simplify my approach and take advantage of the organic, everyday moments in which we can guide our children to Christ. The morning after I began reading (and read half the book), I was prompted to sit and read a devotion with my kids which turned into a sweet time and conversation. Little Habits, Big Faith will have an immediate impact on families because the habits and strategy encouraged are so accessible and simple. I really appreciate the reflection questions and areas to draft and dream for what a vibrant faith family can look like. This is a must read for every parent, grandparent, and children's ministry leader.

Doable. That’s the word that kept coming to mind while reading this book. Thomas takes the responsibility of discipleship and breaks it down into less than 60-second habits, then builds from that foundation. Don’t stop reading after the last chapter; the appendixes offer a treasure trove of ideas and resources. What a freeing and refreshing book for parents (and grandparents) who want to confidently pass on their faith to their children.

As a homeschooling parent of two young boys, I often worry that I’m not doing enough to make a difference in discipline my children. Little Habits, Big Faith was just the encouragement I needed to realize that the small things I do with my boys do have a big impact, and that I don’t have to have a social media worthy “perfect” family worship routine for my boys to grow in their faith walk. This book is full of practical application and encouragement for parents, caregivers, and ministry leaders.

I couldn’t put this book down! “Little Habits, Big Faith” is a wonderfully written and easy to follow book that I cannot recommend enough for parents to kids of all ages. It is apparent that Christie sought wisdom and guidance from God while writing this book. This is where all parents need to start when trying to establish a faith journey for their children!

This is an awesome book with thought provoking easy actionable steps. It is great for new believers to grow their faith as they disciple their children. I highly recommend this book, not only did I gain so much insight from reading it, I thoroughly enjoyed the personal stories in each chapter.
