A Prayer for Voting (and Talking to Your Kids About Politics)

Kayla Craig

Nov 07, 2022

November 8th is Election Day in the United States. As parents, we get to cultivate in our children a value for curiosity and love for our neighbor, and this can look like talking with our kids about politics. Join us this week for this prayer for voting, asking God for guidance as we cast our ballots and model for our children the values of God’s Kingdom.
