The document discusses equipping families in their role of discipling children. It presents principles for family discipleship that are biblical, Christ-centered, and can work across cultures. The process of family discipleship should be holistic, spiritual, relational, experiential, and intentional. Two examples are described: a campaign in Latin America promoting well treatment of children, and a multicultural church family ministry in South Florida with conferences and parenting schools. The overall goal is to equip families to disciple children in a way that builds their character, calling, and competencies.

Editor's Notes
- Let’s take just a few minutes to get everyone’s ideas about what the term “empowering children” means to you and in your context. Because we want to focus more on how we can put this into action, we won’t spend a lot of time debating the terminology, but we do want everyone to have the opportunity to express their ideas about what this might mean. We need to quickly make groups of X number of people, assign one person to be the recorder for the group, and on a large sheet of paper write your answers to this question. Remember that this is a brainstorm so there isn’t time to debate or discuss each idea. Rather, just list them quickly and try to get everyone’s ideas down. We will transfer all of these ideas into a record of our dialouge session that will be available online, and this will contribute to our continuing understanding of what we mean by “empowering” children.
