FAMILY FAITH-BUILDING ACADEMY

Helping Christian Parents Confidently Raise Kids Who Love & Follow Jesus for a Lifetime

WITH KATIE J TRENT

What if you could pass on a faith so strong your kids never want to walk away?

You love Jesus and want your children to love Him too — but in today’s world, it can feel impossible to make faith stick. Between busy schedules, constant distractions, and culture pulling your kids in every direction, it’s easy to wonder:

  • Am I doing enough to teach them about God?

  • Do my kids really understand what they believe?

  • How can I make faith fun and meaningful, not just another checklist?

You’re not alone.
Research shows that 70–88% of church-going kids walk away from faith by early adulthood.
But here’s the truth: those numbers don’t have to describe your family.

Family Faith-Building Academy was created for parents just like you.

This course gives you the tools, structure, and confidence to disciple your children at home in fun, meaningful, and memorable ways—so their faith becomes their own.

Through practical lessons, creative ideas, and Christ-centered guidance, you’ll learn how to make every moment an opportunity to grow your kids’ love for Jesus… without adding more stress to your already full life.


🌟 Inside the Academy, You’ll Learn How To:

  • Build and implement a simple discipleship plan that fits your family’s season and schedule

  • Cultivate authentic worship and a sense of wonder in your home

  • Develop a passionate prayer life—for yourself and with your kids

Testimonials

💬 What Parents Are Saying

"As Christian mothers we are always being told we need to disciple our children, but no one ever tells you how to do it. Katie in the Family Faith Building Academy does just that. She breaks it down into simple ideas and examples of how to put discipleship into practice. But she goes one step further by having you solidify what you believe by taking the time to write it out. Because if you don't truly know what you believe, how can you pass those beliefs on to your children? I came away from this program with a stronger ability to express of my beliefs, with a sense of what I want to impart on my boys, and with the knowledge of how to go about doing it in our everyday life."

Jennifer B.

"Katie's Family Faith-Building Academy is a comprehensive guide to help you determine the foundation your family will build their faith on. The course is thought-provoking and helps you delve into the depths of what you believe. Katie also helps you discover ways to make worship, prayer, and Bible study a wonderful adventure for both you and your children. It's all about focusing on creating moments that matter, growing in grace, and helping your children build a foundation of faith that will last a lifetime. Ultimately, I feel better equipped to help my son grow in the belief that he is infinitely loved by his creator (and be unafraid to share that hope with the world). If you're struggling to find a way to disciple your children, I highly recommend this course."

Jen D.

"As a homeschool mom of 7 years, I've seen that what's essential to a thriving and motivating homeschool commitment is support. Even with the best Christian curriculum on the market, I had to ask myself, 'Am I covering my foundational discipleship bases in my family?' When Katie launched this new course I knew I wanted to be one of the first to get my spot reserved after the impact her first book, Dishing Up Devotions had left on my family by cultivating togetherness and drawing our hearts closer to each other and the Lord (I literally ran to Amazon and purchased copies for my friends in no time.) Especially with the age ranges my children are (12 down to newborn), I look forward to Katie's insight and expertise on family and faith-filled discipleship!"

"Katie is such an inspirational and compassionate encourager! She has truly helped me lead a better homeschool life built in God and helped me find the confidence in myself as a teacher to my own children! I am so grateful to have found her."

FAQ section

Frequently asked questions

You've got questions. We've got answers.

How do I know if this course aligns with my beliefs?

If you’re a Bible-believing, Jesus-loving follower of Christ — this course is for you!

The Family Faith-Building Academy isn’t here to tell you what to believe, but to empower you to share and live out your faith in ways that deeply connect with your children. Everything is built on a 100% Bible-based foundation that helps you clarify and communicate your family’s unique beliefs and values.

In the very first module, Katie walks you through how to define your faith and values clearly and confidently. Most Scripture references are provided in both KJV and ESV versions, and you’re always encouraged to use your personal Bible translation of choice as you go.

How will this course help me if I’ve already been discipling my kids for years?

You’re in the perfect place to start!

You already understand the importance of discipleship — but even faithful, consistent families can find themselves in a spiritual “routine” where faith starts to feel repetitive or disconnected.

The Family Faith-Building Academy helps you refresh your approach, reignite joy, and make faith personal again for your kids. You’ll learn how to make discipleship meaningful, memorable, and fun so your children’s faith doesn’t just become a habit — it becomes heartfelt.

Think of this course as the spark that revives and strengthens what you’ve already built, helping you make the most of the precious time you still have before launching your kids into adulthood.

If I’ve already purchased a Bible curriculum, do I still need this course?

Yes! The Academy is the perfect companion to any Bible-based curriculum.

Think of it like the ice cream base of your discipleship sundae — solid, delicious, and ready for all your favorite toppings! Your existing curriculum is great for teaching content; this course helps you create the connection and culture that make that content come alive.

You’ll learn how to confidently build a strong foundation and use your time, energy, and resources wisely — ensuring that every discipleship effort truly impacts your kids’ hearts and faith.

Do I have a limited amount of time to access the program?

Nope! You’ll have lifetime access to all course materials.

Plus, the course is downloadable, so you can save everything to your computer or device and revisit it anytime — whenever and wherever life takes you.

How is this course different from all the free discipleship resources I already use?

Great question!

Free resources, workshops, and conferences can be encouraging — but they’re often scattered, inconsistent, and hard to apply. It’s easy to end up with lots of ideas but no clear plan.

The Family Faith-Building Academy gives you a step-by-step roadmap and personal guidance to walk you through every part of family discipleship in just 6 weeks. You’ll stop piecing things together and finally have a proven, cohesive plan to grow your family’s faith — without the overwhelm.

Is it too soon to start the course if my child is still a baby (or I’m not a parent yet)?

Not at all — in fact, it’s the perfect time!

Starting early gives you the foundation and confidence you need to begin strong. You’ll be equipped with tools and a biblical strategy for family discipleship long before your kids can even talk — so when the time comes, you’ll be ready to lead without the stress, confusion, or overwhelm.

What is your return policy?

I’m fully committed to your success in family discipleship!
