God can use your kids, even at young ages, to impact others for Christ. In this heartwarming episode of Family Vision, Amy Rienow sits down with special guest, Andrew Reinhard, for a conversation on how God can use our children to shine for Him in unexpected ways.
We met Andrew and his family at Gull Lake Ministries in Michigan - one of our favorite family camps! Little did we know that our teen son, RW, would befried Andrew and make a difference in his life. Andrew is now following Christ and has a vision for God using him to impact the next generation.
