Front Porch with the Fitzes, is a weekly chinwag featuring author Elyse Fitzpatrick and two of her three kids, Jessica Thompson and Joel Fitzpatrick. Sometimes some unexpected folks might even drop by and sit for a spell. Every week they’ll jibber about family life, things that interest them in culture or news, and what they’re learning about the Lord. Imagine sitting on the front porch of your ol’ Kentucky home, listening to three slightly off-kilter believers talk about life, do a lot of laughing at each other and everyone else…and then, of course, there’s always the bluegrass music playing in the background.

Life Jacket.

I always enjoy your podcast. You all remind me of my crazy family. If I lived in San Diego, I would be a fan of the Padres too. My brother and father loved baseball so I grew up seeing them watch games on TV. They took me to see the Angels and Dodgers. I live in an area of Canada now where there are no teams. I want to thank Jessica for her devotion on the inner tube vs the life jacket. Her story about the child who kept clinging to the inner tube, which was causing her to drown while she had a life jacket on, was wonderful and deeply inspiring. I have seen myself doing this by clinging to my family members for comfort and support and not getting what I needed. It wasn’t their fault, I can see now that only God can fill me with what I so desperately need. God be with you all.
