Steven Manuel sits down with Denis Beausejour to talk about grandparenting (4:00). You are going to be SO BLESSED, ENCOURAGED, and CHALLENGED as you have your concept of grandparenting EXPLODED into something waaaaay richer than just someone giving your kid a bike at Christmas (although, hey, bikes are pretty sweet, too). From someone who’s actually doing it, right now, we gain insight into Bible passages that describe grandparents, constructing a physical space for grandchildren (9:45), the eras of life (13:25), The grandparent’s responsibility (17:45), handling generational sin (25:45), how a grandparent’s role is different from a parent’s (37:25), how to pray for grandchildren (42:20), obedience w/re: grandparents (48:45), and a sample schedule for a super engaged grandparenting couple (52:45). (I am astounded by this part.) Denis also shares the financial implications of grandparenting (1:10:40). Anyway hold onto your hats and enjoy the wisdom and intentionality of Denis Beausejour.
NOTE: your family does NOT have to do grandparenting like the Beausejours do! This is ONE inspiring family who’re taking the role seriously and this is THEIR attempt at honoring God with this season of life. You can do it your way. Just let the B’s model help you dream and create vision for your own family-
