The Battle for our Children’s Identity | 143

Most would agree, we never imagined that identity would be a problem issue for parents and children alike, and yet it has become a massive issue. Between media bombarding us with messaging that’s contrary to God’s plan to insecurities that arise from past experiences, many adults and children alike are struggling with the issue of who and Whose they are. Today’s podcast will be a great help as we not only frame the discussion on identity, but also give you information that will equip you to parent your children better in these crazy times.

Meet the Guest:

Joining us today is Dr. Kathy Koch, who is the founder and President of Celebrate Kids and has quickly become one of the speakers that TTD Families look forward to hearing the most. Dr. Kathy earned a Ph.D. in reading and educational psychology from Purdue University. She was a tenured associate professor of education at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, a teacher of second graders, a middle school coach, and a school board member before becoming a full-time conference and keynote speaker in 1991. She has loved Jesus for years and her faith and desire to serve and glorify God is the foundation of her ministry.

Beyond those impressive credentials, though, Dr. Kathy is one of the most gifted speakers we have ever seen, and she has a gift of relating and making her sessions engaging to audiences of all ages. Her love for Jesus and her love for families has led her to write a number of books and speak all across the country to equip families to educate and parent the children God gave them well.
