We wanted them to know they could trust their precious, and potentially fragile, friendships with us. I often wonder if parent realize what it means when their child asks to have a friend over? Do they realize the trust that is being extended in that moment? It is a humble honor that your child feels you are safe and trustworthy enough to invite a friend—an outsider—into your home.]]></description><link>https://www.faithfulparenting.ca/post/we-are-family</link><guid isPermaLink="false">82c89abb-336d-431c-84a8-963a9ddd9faa</guid><pubDate>Sun, 20 Sep 2026 19:46:30 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/819210_99239516965147839caf5efaf93e4467~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Rebecca Doner</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beautifully Broken Worship]]></title><description><![CDATA[I see you there, standing in the pew.
