Faith at Home: How to Support Cautiously Christian Parents

For many parents, religious language is a foreign language. How can parents learn this “second language” and introduce it to their children in simple, meaningful, and concrete ways? How can parents introduce prayer to their children if they do not necessarily believe prayer changes outcomes? How do they approach reading the Bible with their children when their relationship with it is mixed or complicated?
