MAKING SENSE OF THE GOSPEL: The perspective of an eternal, familycentric lens that focuses on beauty and joy.

In this episode the Eyres dive deep into the first essay in their forthcoming Familycentric book, and talk about often the lens we are looking through affects what we see as much as the thing we are looking at. They claim that an inclusive family-focused lens allows us to make more sense not only of our homes but of our Church.

"FAMILYCENTRIC," WHAT THE TITLE OF OUR NEW BOOK MEANS

In today's show, the Eyres express their desire to give the essence of their new book to podcast listeners before the book's release in the Fall. Sometimes the "lens" through which we view something determines what we see more than the actual thing we are looking at. Viewing God as a parent--as two Parents actually, a Heavenly Father and a Heavenly Mother, changes how the whole Gospel looks and how it works in our lives.

FAMILYCENTRIC: RAISING OUR CHILDREN AND ANTICIPATING THE BOOK

The Eyres start the show with a question they have asked themselves: "Of all of our books, which one do we hope our great great great great great grandchildren will read?" The answer is their new book that releases this Fall, called FAMILYCENTRIC, which looks at the Restored Gospel through a family-centric lens and helps us know WHY we must RAISE our children.

LOOKING BACK AT LIFE AND SEEING THE SERENDIPITY

Serendipity (finding things better than that which we were seeking) is easiest to recognize in hindsight. Today the Eyres tell the story of their gathering place at Bear Lake and how, with hindsight, it came about through a string of serendipities. Then they talk about how life unfolds and how God always says "yes" unless He has something better in mind.

(Rerun, 06/07/25) CHILDHOOD, SENIORHOOD, CARING ABOUT BOTH, and the "SCORE" OF LIFE

The Eyre's had a grandson return home from his mission today! They will resume their regular schedule next week. (Rerun, 06/07/25) In this episode, the Eyres apply the sports or music term "score" to life and to its phases. They make the point that most of us have stewardship both over family members in their childhood and family members in their seniorhood, and that the two are both overwhelmingly important and should both be given highest priority.

A GETAWAY, A RETREAT, A PLACE TO CONNECT AND TO THINK

Today Richard and Linda are at Bear Lake in Idaho getting ready for their annual family reunion and they reflect on how a "second place" or retreat...whether it is a campsite, a small second home, a favorite national park... can give the change of perspective and the freedom from distractions that allows us to re-evaluate and see things more clearly both as families and as individuals.

Uplifting and inspiring parenting tips!

I’ve been a huge fan of the Eyres for years and their podcast is no exception. Great, applicable parenting tips that have inspired and encouraged me as a mother. I was very surprised, however, when I listened to the “Replenish” podcast about declining birth rates and heard that statement that “all developed countries have below replacement birth rates”. This is true of all developed countries except Israel, the only developed country with a well above replacement birthrate. As a person of Jewish heritage with lots of family in Israel, I can affirm that Mr and Mrs Eyre would find much in common with the Israelis, who have the most family oriented, life affirming culture I’ve ever experienced! So many crossovers between the Eyres teachings and what the people of Israel live out everyday. Would love to hear them comment on this culture, as they have done so beautifully with so many other cultures around the world! Anyway, thank you again for all the goodness you put into the world! - A Grateful Mom

Absolute, disgusting trash. Nothing more than self-help gurus who like to hear their own voices. Power of positive thinking nonsense.
