  • Silly & SO Good

    1st- (I came across this pod via the intentional parents podcast interview y’all did 🙌🏼so I have a lot of catching up to do). As a Christian mom, it’s refreshing to hear Christian men, specifically dads, share how they are doing it right, need improvement & how they are going through life trying to be good dads & godly men. 👏🏼The interviews are incredible and I enjoy hearing their experiences growing up and how it’s affected their parenting. The comedy in each episode makes it fun and light... more

Danny Wuerffel: From Heisman Winner to Desire Street Ministries
Q: Okay, the first question we'd love to ask, especially people with your story and pedigree, if I could time travel back to 15-year-old Danny and tell him what you're going to accomplish, would 15-year-old Danny respond with disbelief or excitement?
Danny says he would be surprised but excited, acknowledging that as a young player he was often more of a basketball enthusiast and that the future held unexpected greatness which he would embrace rather than resist.
Simple Rules for Being Fully Present at Home with Jordan Raynor
Q: Can you give us the five-minute flyover of how you got to where you are today?
