Press Play

Partner with Parents to Disciple Their Kids

We all want the children in our lives to have the confidence they need to thrive. Confident kids (and adults) make friends easily, advocate for others, exercise true grit, and have the ability to be fully themselves. But how do we help build that confidence? How do we convince our kids that confidence is about more than cool shoes or the right friends (especially when we have trouble believing it ourselves?) Where does true confidence come from?

Author and speaker Carlos Whittaker has been there—both as a parent searching for answers and as a kid searching for identity. And it wasn’t until he saw himself the way God sees him that Carlos was able to find lasting confidence.

In Press Play, this 8-week devotional for kids, Carlos will take your kid on a journey of discovering who God says they are so they can root their confidence in God’s steady truth instead of the unpredictability of their classmates’ opinions. Inside, readers will find…

• 8 weeks of engaging activities (with something fun to do on almost every page)
• 4 days of devotions for each week
• A hands-on Press Play Challenge to put the key principle from the week into practice
  
  Written to kids and for kids, this devotional tackles a BIG topic (what it means to grow in Confidence) in a relevant, engaging, and practical way.

Press Play: A Kid’s Devotional to Build Confidence that Lasts can be used any time, by any church or kid. It also corresponds to 252 Kids & Preteen curriculum and Orange VBS for this summer. It’s a great choice for new Christians or any kids with questions about confidence, send-home gifts from VBS, and as a tool for connecting with kids and parents this summer.
