Alcohol & Food Addiction in a Culture of Normalization (Q+R)
We have the whole crew here today, and we are diving into a great question that was submitted to us: How do you talk to your kids about alcohol in a culture that normalizes it? There are a lot of nuances to this topic and it’s not black and white. We discuss conviction versus preference, parenting out of relationship, and how easy it is to turn to external things rather than God. We hope you join us as we talk about what the Bible says about alcohol and how to live in a way that we can offer our bodies as a living sacrifice to Jesus. Enjoy!

The Process of Formation to Jesus in our Families
How do we practically train our children to walk with Jesus and do what He did? On today’s show, we talk about a 4- step process that shows us how to bring our children on the journey with us. Just like Jesus involves us in His work, He wants us to do the same with our children. There are different stages in training our children and as you walk through each stage you give them the gift of leadership and equip them for their individual God-given callings. Enjoy!

Parental Gaslighting, The Greatest Enemy to our Children, and Parenting in Team (Interview with A.J Swoboda)
A.J. Swoboda is back on the show today! A.J. and Brook sit down to talk and laugh about deep thoughts that are vulnerable and real. Their conversation gets into desires and how critical it is to live in a place of satisfaction in Christ. In this topic of desires, the conversation covers so many facets, from unwanted desires, practical desires, the balance of naming our desires and knowing when to die to them, how we bless our children, how we can learn from those closest to us to be transformed, and how we need to see Jesus in his humanity to relate to God. Enjoy!
