In a world full of conflicting voices, IMAGINE youth who clearly discern truth. IMAGINE youth who can powerfully articulate the evidence of their faith. IMAGINE youth who can stand up and lead others to believe in God.
So, what is the key? Help them gain evidence for faith by teaching them to find and live true principles.
“This habit of questioning rules to find principles is a good one. If adolescents find enough good principles behind man-made and natural rules, they develop faith that principles validate even God-given laws that transcend their present capacity to understand.”~Neil Flinders
As youth learn to identify true principles and see the evidence produced by living those principles, their faith in God will grow. They will not be swayed by the arguments of the world, for they will know He is real.
In this episode you’ll hear:
- What atheists are saying and why their arguments are not found on solid evidence
- Arguments for God
- A key for strengthening our youth by looking at the childhood of atheists
- How we can strengthen our own faith and that of our children through principles

Quotes from this episode:
“The eighteen-year-old is capable of perceiving principles and governing himself by those principles; the authority of a parent or teacher now becomes a testimony of the authority of the principle. But what is the principle? This is the quest…They yearn for the teacher who can unveil them, who invites their examination.
“This habit of questioning rules to find principles is a good one. If adolescents find enough good principles behind man-made and natural rules, they develop faith that principles validate even God-given laws that transcend their present capacity to understand.”~Neil Flinders
“[The Mission Driven Mom is all about] arm[ing] mothers, empower[ing] them with principles and purpose to help them become principle centered as individuals and to create principle centered home[s] where conversations and discussions can hover around principles. [Then] their children can see that [principles] are universal and that because of their existence,…because they are real, because they work, there must be a God. [This] helps them maintain their faith.”~Audrey Rindlisbacher
“I hope that as mothers you will engage and embark on that quest to be more principled centered in your thinking and your living…that you will arm you children with…principles… [and] embark on the quest with you children [to] find…and live…principles together. It will revolutionize your lives, and it will also build your faith.”~Audrey Rindlisbacher
