In an age where parenting often feels like a solo expedition through the Amazon (minus the cool wildlife and plus a lot more Cheerios ground into the carpet), writer Bonnie Kristian offers a refreshing perspective in her Christianity Today article. While most of us are familiar with the modern parenting scene—you know, where scheduling a playdate requires the diplomatic finesse of a UN negotiator and getting your toddler to eat vegetables feels like convincing a cat to take a bath—Kristian reminds us that it doesn't have to be a lonely journey. She points to a rather revolutionary idea that's actually as old as, well, the church itself: raising children was never meant to be a one-family show. Within the church community, child-rearing transforms from an exhausting solo performance into more of an ensemble piece, though admittedly still with plenty of improvisational moments and occasional chaos.
