How do I lead my family spiritually?

I want to be the spiritual head of my household but honestly I'm not sure where to start. We go to church on Sundays but I feel like I should be doing more - family devotions, prayer before meals, teaching my kids about God. I'm worried I'll mess it up or my kids will think I'm fake. What does leading spiritually actually look like in your homes?

Starting with family dinners where everyone shares their day has been huge for us. Even just talking about what we're grateful for opens the door to bigger conversations about faith. Don't overthink it - consistency matters way more than perfection.

This is something I've been wrestling with too. We started a simple Sunday night tradition where we read a passage together and everyone gets to ask questions. The key thing I learned is that your kids want to see YOU wrestling with faith too, not pretending you have all the answers.

Being the spiritual head doesn't mean being perfect or having everything figured out. It means showing up authentically and letting your kids see your own journey. That's way more powerful than any sermon.
