    Leading Family Worship: Every Father's Greatest Charge

    Two things changed everything for our family: embracing biblical headship and starting daily Family Worship. In this foundational episode, Ryan Frederick issues a clear, unapologetic call to Christian men: Family Worship is the lifeblood of every Christian home, and leading it is the central, defining outworking of biblical headship. In this episode you’ll discover: Why there will never be revival in the church until there is revival in the home—and why that revival, at scale, begins with men leading worship in their living roomsThe biblical case from Deuteronomy 6 and Joshua 4 that Family Worship is not optional, not a suggestion, but a direct command to fathers as the priest-prophet-pastor of their covenantal householdHow Family Worship tangibly connects your marriage and children to the covenant-keeping God who redeemed youWhy skipping it is functionally choosing the idols of busyness, screens, and distraction over the jealous God who delivered you from slaveryA simple, battle-tested framework we use in the Frederick home: Read → Sing → Pray (with practical tips you can start tonight—even if you feel awkward or inadequate)Powerful quotes from Spurgeon, Matthew Henry, and Howard Hendricks that will light a fire under youIf you’ve ever prayed for your family to love Jesus more but felt stuck… if you know you’re called to lead but don’t know where to begin… this episode is your wake-up call. Leading Family Worship isn’t one more thing on the to-do list. It’s the one thing that orders everything else. Stop drifting. Start leading. Your wife is waiting. Your kids are watching. And your God deserves it. Resources mentioned: Family Worship by Donald WhitneyFamily Worship Bible Guide by Joel BeekeThoughts on Family Worship by James W. Alexander Don’t finish this episode without gathering your family tonight. The most fierce thing you’ll ever do is open the Bible at the dinner table and say, “Let’s worship the God who saved us.” Your home will never be the same.

    As the Father Goes, So Goes the Home: Leading Your Family INTO Joy

    Fathers, the energy you bring home is the nuclear reactor of your family’s atmosphere. One exhausted Monday night, I looked around the dinner table—whining toddler, cranky 6-year-old, worn-out teens, and my wife’s face mirroring it all. I realized: I was the problem. Instead of clearing plates, I grabbed my ukulele and belted out the silliest song I know. Within seconds, laughter erupted, kids ran circles, older ones sang while doing dishes, and the entire evening flipped. "Joy should be the default setting for your home. Be the thermostat." – JM Clark In this episode: Why headship = responsibility for the emotional temperature (Voddie Baucham: "As the father goes, so goes the home.")The fire-in-the-woodstove analogy for warming a cold house (and why your wife’s help keeps it steady)5 actionable steps to reclaim the thermostat:Talk to your wife first (unity, not weakness)Call a family meeting & own your failuresCast vision for a joyful, peace-filled homeExecute consistently (smile, laugh, dad-joke with confidence)Enforce with love—call out grumbling, celebrate delight Examples in action: Countenance: Smile first, even when tired.Playfulness: Brazen dad jokes = self-unseriousness + leadership.Persistence: Check in with your wife naturally; remind kids by modeling. Cold homes don’t warm instantly—but consistent fire-starting changes everything. Fierce Men is about becoming better men and doing more for God’s Kingdom.
