How do you raise children who can think critically, discern truth, and keep their faith in today’s confusing culture?
In Part 1 of this conversation, Matt Jones and Janel Greig are joined by Kathy Gibbens, founder of Filter It Through a Brain Cell, to explore why critical thinking is one of the most important skills that Christian parents can help their children develop.
