Developing Grit
Episode 9
Wednesday, 28 January, 2026
In this episode of Parenting with Purpose, Connie and Christy explore how parents can help their children develop grit and confidence by allowing them to struggle through age-appropriate challenges rather than constantly rescuing them. They discuss practical ways to build capability in kids—from letting toddlers work at opening their own drink lids to teaching teenagers to manage their own academic schedules—while relying on the Holy Spirit for wisdom about when to step in and when to step back. The hosts emphasize that developing grit requires long-term vision, patience, and trusting that God has given our children everything they need to do hard things.
