I’ve been getting a lot of requests lately to talk about the issue of vaccination. Honestly? I am avoiding you folks 🙂 because all seven of our kids are vaccinated. However! I have dear friends who disagree with me on this issue. One of them is on the podcast with me today. Join me as we talk about why I think that while it’s important to talk about things like vaccines, issues like this should never divide friends. Listen in!

A child’s first lessons about their bodies—everything from their appearance to what God says about human sexuality—come from their parents. The messages we give them early in life have a deep, long-lasting impact on how they will see themselves as adults. God has spoken life over each one of us when He created us, male and female, in His image. It’s powerful when we speak this as truth into the lives of our children.
So where do we start? How do we pass on a godly perspective of sexuality and beauty to our kids? As in every other area of life, we start at the starting place: the Bible. We dare not trust human wisdom where these tender topics are concerned. Join me in this podcast as I offer encouragement for parents who are shepherding children in today’s changing culture.
The modern church is facing a crisis of belief. Do we really believe that the message of the Gospel is enough? Do we believe it’s life-changing? Do we really believe that God is big enough to push through the cultural fog and invade the hearts of men and women with truth today? What good is an entertaining church service that fails to entertain the questions that this generation is asking? Can we share that message with the love that Jesus intends?
These are important questions! Join me—I’m talking about relevance on the podcast today!
Do you sometimes wonder how to pray or are you unfamiliar with the Word of God? Writing the Scriptures and learning to personalize them as an example of how to pray is an excellent tool. You’re not alone if you struggle to find the words to pray, but we see many people in the Bible who have gone before us and show us examples, so we don’t have to stay confused. Join me today as I discuss how I apply these two spiritual disciplines in the life of my family.
