Sending Arrows: Parent-Child Reflection & Assessment

Children do not accidentally develop courage, identity, and spiritual confidence. These things must be intentionally cultivated.

This reflection and assessment helps parents evaluate how well they understand the developing identity, convictions, fears, and purpose of their child after completing Sending Arrows. Parents will answer questions regarding their child’s confidence, emotional resilience, sense of belonging, spiritual maturity, personal responsibility, and understanding of who God created them to be.

Children will then respond to many of the same questions themselves, allowing parents to identify disconnects between perception and reality while uncovering areas where affirmation, guidance, or intentional discipleship may still be needed.

As families prepare for the transition into the preteen years, this assessment serves as a powerful opportunity to strengthen trust, communication, and intentional spiritual formation before the next season begins.

Because arrows fly best when they have first been shaped with wisdom, care, and understanding.
