    Am I a Terrible Parent: Video Games + Screen Time

    We introduce a new format called "Am I a Terrible Parent?" where one of them asks if something they do with their kids makes them terrible parents. On this week's show Dan shares his policy of sequestering his children in their rooms once they've reached their screen time quota. This leads to a comparison of our children's obsession with screens, utilizing video games as a motivational tool, and the challenges of a creating a gaming free home in 2019.

    Kanye West Declares Jesus is King

    We break down the biggest event in Christian music history: Kanye West's new album "Jesus is King." There's a lot of angles to cover here: the divided Christian response, what it means for the future of Christian music, the best tracks, and where this album ranks among the rest of Kanye's music. Whether or not you are huge Kanye fans like us, this is definitely a story worth talking about.

    Raising Strong Girls with Women of the Church

    About half of all kids on earth are girls (statistics level: 1,000), and the challenges they have faced throughout history are numerous. Things are a lot better than they used to be for girls, but we've still got a ways to go. To help us think through what steps we can take as parents to raise girls well we bring in Ashley and Mandy from Women of the Church Podcast to give us some historical insight into impactful women of the past.

    Upside Down Leadership with Chris Cirullo

    We all know we are supposed to lead our kids, but what does "leadership" actually mean? With so many different leadership types and methods displayed in society and culture, it's crucial we distinguish between the world's version of leadership and God's. To help us wade through this topic, Justin hangs out with Chris Cirullo of Man on Mission podcast to try and differentiate between cultural leadership vs. kingdom leadership and how that affects the approach we take with our kids.   Connect with us: Leave a review Instagram (@godisadadpodcast) Facebook (https://facebook.com/godisadad/) Website (https://godisadad.wixsite.com/podcast)   Intro music- "As Colourful as Ever" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0 Outro music- "Night Owl" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0

    God is Not a Helicopter Parent + School Shootings

    The guys follow up on their conversation about Violence by asking how much God "helicopters" vs. allows us to encounter difficult/traumatizing experiences in life. Then they break down the recently released video from the Sandy Hook Promise "Back-to-School Essentials" and discuss how the reality of school shootings affects our perspective on violence.   Sandy Hook Promise: "Back-to-School Essentials" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5ykNZl9mTQ   Connect with us: Leave a review Instagram (@godisadadpodcast) Facebook (https://facebook.com/godisadad/) Website (https://godisadad.wixsite.com/podcast)   Intro music- "As Colourful as Ever" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0 Outro music- "Night Owl" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0

  7. Violent Content Will Not Ruin Your Kids

    Violent Content Will Not Ruin Your Kids

    For as long as violent media has existed, parents have wondered: is it OK to let my kids see/hear/read/watch this? Will it cause them to be violent? Will it traumatize them in some way? Will they think violence is normal/good/appropriate behavior? These are critical questions to answer that, like most questions, have no universal answer for every family or every child. Listen in as we talk through how our families think about violence, we hope it sparks intentional thoughts and conversations about what's best for yours.   Connect with us: Leave us a Review Instagram (@godisadadpodcast) Facebook (https://facebook.com/godisadad/) Website (https://godisadad.wixsite.com/podcast)   Intro music- "As Colourful as Ever" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0 Outro music- "Night Owl" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0

    Is Parenting Hard? A Debate with Risen Motherhood (Ep 31)

    Back this week with the fun part of our conversation with Laura and Emily from Risen Motherhood (the podcast AND the new book). They begin every episode with the statement "Motherhood is hard," so we thought we'd get them to dig deeper into what that really means. Is parenting actually hard, or do we make it hard? A friendly debate ensues and go figure, when you listen to people who think differently than you, sometimes you learn things.   Check out more from Risen Motherhood: Buy the book Website: https://www.risenmotherhood.com/ Instagram (@risenmotherhood)  Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/risenmotherhood/)   Connect with us: Leave us a Review Instagram (@godisadadpodcast) Facebook (https://facebook.com/godisadad/) Website (https://godisadad.wixsite.com/podcast)   Intro music- "As Colourful as Ever" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0 Outro music- "Night Owl" by Broke for Free from FMA under CC BY 3.0
