Parenthood changes everything. One of the more surprising changes for me is how kids changed my faith life.
Quiet prayer time, studying scripture, and time spent in service to those in need were the metrics I used to reflect on my faith before having kids. With kids in the picture, quiet time and free time in general are nearly non-existent.
In short, my faith has to adapt to this new reality.
Have you experienced this as well?
What practices have you established to remain rooted in prayer while also being a parent?
How have kids changed your faith life, and how did you adapt?
