Newborn Promise Project

Even more so than getting married, having a child is a profoundly spiritual passage of life, as husband and wife enter a dramatic new phase in marriage and personal growth. At the same time, God brings their child into the world already primed to know and to grow in him.

This confluence of transitions often has new parents thinking more earnestly about God and what faith will mean to their growing family. What kind of parents will we be? Will we avoid repeating mistakes from our past? How will we spiritually nurture a new life?

Couples don’t have to wrestle with these issues alone. A body of knowledge found in the Bible and from Christian experience throughout the ages speaks directly to this major life event. Created by Graham Blanchard’s well-regarded content development team of parents, teachers, and pastors, the Newborn Promise Project App serves as a faith-building hub of resources to help today’s new families grow with Jesus during this transformative season.

The Newborn Promise Project App includes:
