Passing On Our Roots: Raising Filipino-American Kids with Faith and Purpose
"How do we raise our kids to thrive in America without losing the roots of our Filipino faith and heritage? Let’s talk about building a legacy of purpose for the next generation."
Parenting in a bicultural home is both a blessing and a challenge. As Filipino-American parents, we want our children to thrive in America—yet we don’t want them to lose the faith, values, and heritage that shaped us.
In this episode of Rise Tayo, Coach Blanche shares the joys and struggles of raising kids in a bicultural household, the importance of passing on Filipino values like respect, hospitality, and resilience, and how to root our children’s identity in Christ above culture.
You’ll hear practical tips for weaving faith into family life, celebrating both cultures with Christ at the center, and building a legacy of purpose for the next generation.
✨ Whether you’re a parent, mentor, or part of the Filipino-American community, this conversation will inspire you to embrace your heritage and raise Kingdom-minded kids with confidence.
