    Build A Family That Lasts Forever with Johann Kurtz

    I'm joined today by Johann Kurtz, author of the amazing new book Leaving a Legacy. We discuss the idea of the Thousand Year Family, and talk about what modern American families can learn from aristocratic families that have lasted hundreds (or more) years. This is a deep episode that covers everything from foundational beliefs and mindset about family, wealth, theology, and legacy, to a defense of nepotism versus meritocracy (seriously), to lessons from families that last for centuries. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:13 The Thousand Year Family 7:09 How To Pass On Great Wealth Without 17:26 Theology of Legacy 24:13 For Families Considering a Liquid Exit 34:44 Creating a Ruling Family 44:14 Defending Nepotism?

    We Accidentally Built A Degenerate Mating System That's Leading To Polygamy

    People are starting to wake up to this, and call it for what it truly is, but I still think they're hedging too much. They're not going all the way, because many people are ignorant of the freedom-obsessed sea in which they swim. This is a hugely important topic that will impact how our kids and grandkids grow up and experience life, and I want to call it out right now: We're moving into a period where there will be a cultural war between polygamy and monogamy as the Christian sexual ethic continues to be cast off in our society. In this episode I break down a recent article and share why this is so devastating and why Christians still have the best response, as long as we actually respond. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 3:00 Framing the debate 6:31 The most powerful incentive of all 8:43 Everyone hedges (and I wish they wouldn't) 11:03 The root of the problem 13:26 Polygamy vs. Monogamy Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor Resources Mentioned: Aaron Renn's Newsletter Article: https://substack.com/home/post/p-184845957 --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    Why The Modern Corporation Might Be The "ANTI-FAMILY"

    Just as there are anti-christs who will come to take the place of Christ, I believe there could be anti-families that come to take the place of family. Now I'm not saying that corporations are antichrists. But I am saying that the analogy might hold. When we shifted the locus of economic activity from the family to this new entity called the corporation...what did that actually do to the family? I'd argue it did a lot. And if we want to have flourishing families that obey God's original mandate in Genesis 1:28, perhaps we need to start thinking about how we can build within our own multi-generational family instead of building another corporate entity. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:11 Are modern corporations The Anti-Family? 3:47 Why didn't God create corporations? 8:48 Corporations vs families Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor Resources Mentioned: Rory Groves Podcast Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPPClJbq2fc Take Back Your Family by Jeff Bethke: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1400221765/ --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    The Intentional Age: Raise A Strong Family In Our Techno Dystopia

    The biggest distinction between people in the next generation will be between those who live by accident and those who live by intention. Specifically, it will be those people who grew up with parents who were intentional about technology, and kept it mostly away from their kids, and those who just "went with the flow" and passed on their screen/technology addiction. How do we buck the trend of "going with the flow", though? If only there were something about humans and how God made us that could protect our kids... Oh yeah, there is. It's called a patriarch. Join me in considering what's coming down the pipeline and how families can raise intentional kids. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:28 Wise cultures 3:48 How to avoid the vortex of the techno dystopia 9:44 A strong will and community 13:01 We MUST protect children 18:14 What to do now --- Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com   Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    How Doug Wilson SHOULD Have Answered Sam Harris' Attacks on Christianity

    Sam Harris recently had Doug Wilson on his podcast where he brought up 2 "kill shots" against Christianity. One is women's right to vote. The other is slavery. While I think Doug did a decent job explaining household voting as a reasonable and ideal alternative to our current voting system, he left a LOT to be desired in his defence of Biblical slavery. The first conversation is good, and something we've talked about here at Family Teams, so I hope you'll watch it and get a sense of why household voting could work. But the second one is very important. Not because it's culturally relevant today, necessarily, but because so many atheists and libertarians think that there's a glaring moral hole in the Bible as it relates to slavery. We MUST be able to defend how the Bible talks about slavery, and I give my version of what I think Doug should have said here. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:43 Doug Wilson responds to whether women should vote 13:16 Boomers and individualism 17:28 How to think about slavery as Christians 36:54 The only abolitionists were Christians Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor Resources Mentioned: Sam Harris & Doug Wilson Full Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRQ6Tcw9maM JOIN THE FAMILY TEAMS ACCELERATOR: https://familyteams.com/accelerator --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    Do Christian's Owe A Debt of Honor To Today's Jews?

    Jeremy's joined by Jeff, Ryan, and his daughter Kelsey to discuss whether the Bible encourages today's Christians to honor today's non-believing Jews. This is a hot topic, and I think the answer is yes, but I wanted to hash it out with people on both sides of this. This ended up being a thoughtful discussion ranging from Genesis to the New Testament, from honor to salvation. If you care about the Bible and God's plans for the world and for the Jews in particular, this is an important question to come up with an answer to. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 2:49 Ryan's Initial Thoughts 5:56 Jeff's Initial Thoughts 8:52 Jeremy's Position 13:40 5 Examples Where The Bible May Describe a Debt of Honor Being Due 35:25 Definition, Gifts, Romans 48:28 Revoke or Rejected Covenant? 53:52 Why NOT To Be Arrogant 59:57 Parable of Tenants 1:09:53 Nuance of Honor 1:17:28 Abrahamic Covenant Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    Woke Moral Outrage Is DESTROYING Us...Here's The Answer

    Why is our culture obsessed with sex, race, and Israel? And what do these moral battles have in common? In this episode, we unpack a powerful biblical lens that explains our modern obsession with virtue-signaling and moral outrage. From pride flags to anti-racism campaigns to protests over Gaza, each movement taps into humanity's desperate need to feel good...to be one of the "good guys." But Scripture reveals that this hunger for moral justification isn't new; it began in the Garden of Eden. Discover how the gospel uniquely answers our craving for moral virtue, without hypocrisy, pride, or destruction. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:43 The Human Need to Be Seen as Good 4:50 Sexual Ethics and the New Morality 8:28 The Bible's Solution: Admitting We're The Baddies 11:49 Racism and the Modern Morality Game 15:13 Antisemitism and the Search for Moral Superiority 19:25 The Gospel as the Only Way Out Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

    The "Good Life": The Dangerous Place The Left Wants To Take Us

    What happens when one of America's sharpest liberal thinkers is pressed to define the good life? In this episode, Jeremy unpacks a conversation between New York Times columnists Ross Douthat and Ezra Klein - two brilliant minds from opposite ends of the political spectrum. What begins as a discussion about progressivism's future quickly becomes a deep philosophical exploration of faith, meaning, and purpose in modern politics. Jeremy walks us through the unraveling of Klein's vision for "the good life" and what that says about the spiritual emptiness of today's cultural left. Stay tuned until the end, because what Klein finally admits might surprise you. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:57 Progressive despair 3:10 Obama was liberal high water mark 5:40 Where are liberals taking us? 20:03 We have to understand the philosophical underpinnings of each side Subscribe on Substack ➡️ https://jeremypryor.substack.com Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: https://instagram.com/jeremympryor/ X: https://x.com/jeremympryor Resources Mentioned: Interesting Times With Ross Douthat Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVL69ZfvhuQ --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."
