Does your child find Tefillah challenging? Do they come to shul feeling disconnected and unmotivated to daven?

Lots of parents face this. The beauty of Shabbos and the power of Tefillah seem so obvious to us, but they don't always feel that important to a child. There are many reasons this happens. Here's a Torah Live approach that's helped many parents.

Emunah & Tefillah

A mother emailed us a while back. Her daughter was struggling with Tefillah. She slept late every day, didn't go to shul on Shabbos with the rest of the family, and was slowly pulling away from the world of Tefillah. The mother quickly realized that yelling and punishing weren't going to work. She wanted a creative way to handle this delicate challenge.

One day she asked her daughter: "I'm not asking you to wake up on time or to come to shul. But I wanted to know if you'd be interested in watching this Emunah & Tefillah series with me. Just you and me, mother and daughter time." Her daughter happily agreed.

The mother told us the series had a powerful influence on her daughter. It took time. They'd watch a section, talk about it, and pick it up again the next week. Slowly, her daughter came back to the world of Tefillah. She told her mother that so many complicated ideas she'd struggled with were finally answered in the series. And the quality time they spent talking about them meant even more.

This is one of many stories we've heard from parents who used this series to grow closer to their kids. Emunah & Tefillah is built step by step. It starts with the foundations of Emunah (faith) and works its way up to the world of Tefillah. Any child (or adult 🙂) with basic questions, or tough ones, will find answers here. The series doesn't shy away from the hard questions we all have about Tefillah.
