    Ever feel like your family is just surviving - keeping up with school, meals, and schedules - but missing a bigger sense of purpose?

    Celebrating The Festivals of Faith (Sukkot Edition)

    God is a good Father who uses holidays and festivals to disciple His children all throughout the Old Testament. But for some reason these have been lost in modern Christianity.  Now, we don't HAVE to celebrate these holidays, Christ fulfills them all, BUT we've found over the past 10+ years that they are a POWERFUL tool to disciple our kids, follow God more closely, and build deep memories that impact us, our kids, and our communities for a lifetime. Here's why we like celebrating them, and a quick reminder that our Accelerator is open to join right now for September, where we'll be giving you a full "how to" so you can celebrate your first Biblical holiday - Sukkot - this October without any stress!

    Why We Celebrate This BIBLICAL Fall Festival (And How You Can Start)

    I want to show you why celebrating a week outside in a handmade booth becomes the most unforgettable family tradition - without feeling like a chore. We’re joined by community coaches Brent and Katie Kruithoff, who previously helped us learn to celebrate spring holidays like Passover and Pentecost. This time, they share how the fall Biblical festival of Sukkot became a unifying, joy-filled anchor for their family’s yearly rhythm. We also unpack the beautiful theology behind Sukkot: dwelling outside reminds us that “this earth is not our home,” pointing our eyes to our true forever home with God in heaven. Ready to reimagine how your family marks time? Tune in to be inspired, equipped, and excited to build traditions that echo into eternity - and learn how to start small, stay consistent, and celebrate big.

    Why "Consent" Is The False Religion Sterilizing Future Generations

    Jeremy reacts to a viral Tweet explaining the difference between a mom's conservative and liberal child. He explains why we needed to invent some moral framework for society after Christian ethics were broadly discarded, and why our culture is suddenly anti-life after choosing "consent" as the moral framework. This new "religion" doesn't value life, and is leading to the sterilization of the next generation. Seriously consider what you can do about it as he explains at the end of the episode. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 2:26 The Tweet 5:12 Ideas really matter 7:00 When the innate goodness of life is rejected 16:48 Universities are indoctrinating our children into a new religion 19:15 What do we do about this?
