Equipped To Be Connie Albers

I want to take a moment to talk about God's faithfulness. The Equipped To Be Podcast has reached a major milestone. With this episode and the transition to Season 3, we have marked three years of episodes! There were ups and downs along the way, but I'm so excited to have shared this journey with you!
 
Equipped To Be began in February 2020 right before the pandemic turned our world upside down. Amanda from The Pelsers Media was sitting in my office talking to me about starting the podcast and she said she'd help me. I couldn't do this podcast without my team, you my listeners, and my sponsors and partners. Many thanks to all of you! Join me in this episode to hear the story of God's faithfulness over the last three years!

Do you have kids who resist your instructions? You tell them to do something and they don't do it. You beg. You lecture. You try to explain why. But, they don't do what you say or they simply ignore you. Why do children resist instructions?
 
In this episode, we're digging into why children resist instructions. There are five reasons you might be experiencing this resistance. Let's dig into them! Read the full show notes with links here: https://conniealbers.com/why-children-resist-instructions

New York Times Bestselling author Larry Loftis is back on the show to talk about the story behind his newest novel. In this spy thriller, Larry tells the story of the life of Corrie ten Boom. Many of us are familiar with the story from The Hiding Place but that is maybe about ten percent of the story of Corrie's life. There's so much more to tell as Larry learned in his research. It's a story of extraordinary forgiveness.

Do you allow your kids to participate in sleepovers? I'm personally not a fan of blanket directives because each family is unique. You have to make a decision about what is best for your family based on the pros and cons of having sleepovers.
 
I was recently on Fox 35 Orlando to talk about the pros and cons of sleepovers. It's hard to have an in-depth discussion on a topic like this in four minutes, so I'd like to dig in a little deeper here on the podcast with you. Let's talk about the reasons for and against sleepovers so you can be empowered as the parent to make the best choice that fits your family and each of your kids.

In the last episode, we discussed the pros and cons of sleepovers. Rather than making a blanket decision, I encouraged you to look deeper into the goals of your family and how sleepovers can fit or do not fit into those plans. This week I want to dig deeper into hosting sleepovers. What should you ask the host family? What can you do as the host home for a sleepover?
