Rock Solid Families is committed to helping educate, equip, and empower families to be all God created them to be! Merrill and Linda Hutchinson began Rock Solid Families in October of 2018. They have over 60 years of combined experience in teaching, public speaking, counseling, ministry, and coaching. After much prayer, Merrill and Linda made the decision to step down from their full time positions in the church and public school to focus on strengthening families. Both believe that healthy schools, churches, and communities depend on strong and healthy families. This weekly podcast is made possible through the generous financial support of community partners. With the help of local sponsors and the word spreading through listeners like you, Rock Solid Families is helping to build stronger communities one family at a time!

"But I didn't Sleep With Them" - Emotional Affairs - Ep 289
Not many would question whether or not having an affair can be very destructive to a marriage.

Are We Bringing People to Christ or Driving Them Away? Ep 286
Have you ever been turned off by someone's hardriving fire and brimstone evangelism. It typically comes with great fervor and intention, but the delivery leaves a lot to be desired.

The endless search for finding a content and complete life can be exhausting. Looking for people and things to make us feel like we finally have it all together is the great quest. But, is this really the quest you want to take? The great philosophers have repeated over and over that we can not find life happiness in people and things. We must go elsewhere.
