Grounded Kids Resilient Faith I Christ-Centered Parenting, Biblical Discipleship, Healing After Childhood Trauma

Have you ever asked God, “How am I supposed to raise kids with strong faith when I’m still healing myself?” Do you worry your kids will turn away from God—not because they don’t love Him, but because of the trauma they’ve carried or the pain they never chose? Are you quietly asking if you’re doing enough to help your kids trust God again—while you’re still trying to trust Him too? If you are parenting after trauma—whether it’s your story, your child’s, or generations of brokenness—you are not alone. Welcome to Grounded Kids Resilient Faith, a podcast to help you raise kids who love Jesus deeply, even when life has been hard. I’m Tricia Kelley—Jesus follower, homeschool mom, educator, and once a little girl who wondered where God was in the pain and trauma. But one day Jesus met me, healed me, and rewrote my story with grace. Now, I’m raising my own kids while breaking harmful patterns and trusting God with the messy in-between. This isn’t coming from a polished place—it’s coming from real life, real healing, and a deep belief that God can redeem your story too. Each week, You’ll be equipped with a Christ-centered parenting framework—filled with real-life tools, biblical wisdom you can actually use, and simple discipleship ideas that fit real family life. We talk about faith and fear, healing and hope, and how to lead your kids toward Jesus—even when you’re still learning to trust Him yourself. You don’t need perfect faith to be a Christ-centered parent. You just need a willing heart, a little courage, and the reminder that God can use even the messy middle for His glory. Join a growing community of Christian parents who are choosing to plant deep roots in Christ—and raise kids who rise strong in faith, even after trauma. *Send An Email ~ groundedminds.learning@gmail.com *Connect on Instagram ~ https://www.instagram.com/grounded.kids.resilient.faith/ *Connect on Facebook ~ https://www.facebook.com/GroundedKidsResilientFaith
