Parenting Resource LIVE Forum Events
August 2 and August 16, 2025
Equipping Parents
Raising Gen Z involves navigating spiritual warfare, parental impact, and heart‑level conversations—all while trying to model gospel freedom. The GenFree Parenting Forum exists to bridge that gap with parents and a panel of young‑adult voices. They’ll share stories and discover a community that “gets it.”
Format: Live chat about the Parenting Content with the GenFree Team (James & Mellisa Pressley, Joe and Tammy Williams, James Menendez, and young adult contributors)
