Lets talk about those sporty kids. How do we balance sports and church? What about modelling Christ-likeness? How do we parent sporty kids, when there isn't a sporty bone in our body?

Join Ed, Amy as they chat with Ian Lancaster (Lancs) from Christians in sports about how we can support our kids and help them navigate the world of sport. Ed and Amy spill the beans in parenting blunders, and Lancs helps them, and us, with some practical tips.
