The mission of parenting doesn’t end after your kids become adults. As our children fly the family nest, we may feel like our influence as parents has passed, but that’s not what the Bible teaches! Your influence may actually be stronger than ever! Don’t miss pastor and father Rob Rienow’s advice on encouraging the faith of your adult children!
Rob Rienow (DMin, Gordon-Conwell) sees his most important ministry as loving his wife, Amy, and partnering with her to help their seven children follow God.
In 2011, Rob and Amy launched Visionary Family Ministries, whose mission is to build the church through a global reformation of family discipleship. Through their conferences, seminars, and resources, they seek to equip and encourage parents, couples, families, and church leaders around the world. He and Amy have written several books on family relationships, including Visionary Parenting and Visionary Marriage. The Rienow family lives in the western suburbs of Chicago.
