Courageous Grandparenting

---

The sessions of the Courageous Grandparenting Seminar are built around Scriptural teaching related to grandparenting embodied in Three Biblical Roles…

• Gatekkeeper
• Story Teller
• Blessing Giver

Each session is creatively presented to help grandparents flesh out what it means to be courageously intentional in how we live for Christ and how we teach our grandchildren to live for Christ in today’s world. Here are the titles of the five sessions we use:

1. Wake Up! Who’s Problem Is It?
2. Wise Up! The Issachar Factor
3. Own Up! An Ordained Partnership (Adult Children)
4. Speak Up! Unleashing the Power of Spoken Blessing
5. Live Up! A Legacy Worth Outliving You
6. Size Up! Untangling the Technology Web
