How do we help the next generation develop a genuine connection with God without making faith feel forced, overly formal, or disconnected from everyday life? On this episode of The Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright welcomes children's author and speaker Bitsy Kemper for a practical and encouraging conversation about bringing faith into the everyday moments families share. Bitsy explains how her children's books, devotionals, activities, games, humor, and Bible-centered resources are designed to help parents and grandparents create meaningful connections with children while naturally introducing them to God's Word. From putting down the phone and making eye contact to laughing together, playing games, praying, and spending intentional time together, Bitsy reminds us that children may not remember every Scripture we quote—but they will remember how it felt when someone they loved took the time to be present with them. If you are a parent, grandparent, children's ministry leader, teacher, homeschool family, or anyone passionate about reaching the next generation, this conversation will encourage you to make faith personal, relational, memorable, and joyful.

In this episode of The Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, TS Wright sits down with author and speaker Bitsy Kemper to discuss creative ways of reaching children and helping families build faith-filled relationships.
Bitsy shares how her writing ministry developed from her work as a children's book author into a desire to naturally incorporate Scripture, Jesus, and biblical truth into books families could enjoy together.
TS and Bitsy discuss:
Best Friends with Grandma
Bitsy describes her new picture book as a book designed for grandparents and children to enjoy together. Throughout the book, everyday interactions between grandmothers and grandchildren are paired with Scripture that reinforces biblical principles and godly character.
Best Friends with Grandpa
A companion book following a similar concept, highlighting grandfathers and grandchildren while connecting everyday character lessons with Scripture.
Mommy and Me Micro Moments: Nurturing Faith, Sharing Laughs
A collection of short, approximately five-minute activities designed to help mothers and children laugh, connect, pray, communicate, and create meaningful memories together.
Mommy and Me Christian Coloring Book
A companion coloring and activity resource incorporating Bible verses into simple activities and illustrations for younger children.
Bitsy closes the conversation with two particularly important principles for reaching the next generation:
Make eye contact.
In a world filled with phones, screens, and constant distractions, giving a child your complete attention communicates their value without requiring a speech.
Don't be afraid to have fun.
Spiritual conversations do not always have to feel formal or serious. Laughter, games, creativity, and honest conversation can open doors for relationships and make biblical truth memorable.
Faith can be reverent without becoming disconnected from joy.
