  • God tells us to love everyone.

    Why should we stop ourselves from loving someone in the same gender? Sure, in the Bible it says not to, in the Old Testament. In the New Testament, Jesus tells us he has come to abide the old laws and that we are now free from those rules. Love everyone. No matter what.

  • Wish I could hear more from guests.

    Excellent podcast, covers a wide range of topics with something for every parent in any stage. My only complaint is that out of a 15 minute podcast, only 5 minutes are given to the world-class guests they have on. No offense to the hosts, but I’d rather hear more from the experts you’ve invited.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building Godly Habits in Your Home
Q: What are those three?
Earley names Scripture before phone, kneeling prayer for the parent, and a short prayer with children before school as three morning routines.
Building Godly Habits in Your Home
Q: You have a story of your son, I think, waking up from a nightmare about a monster. You realize through that that you're also like your son when it comes to believing in an alternative reality. Explain it.
Earley recalls joking with his frightened son about throwing a monster out the window, which helped him feel protected. He says adults also face fears and can turn to Scripture and prayer rather than waking first to the demands and anxieties on their phones.
Rewriting Your Family Story
Q: How can parents make a relationship safer when an adult son or daughter calls?
Josh recommends beginning with understanding what is happening behind the child's behavior. Listening and relating without immediately trying to fix things can help create safety.
Rewriting Your Family Story
Q: What happened when you turned 10?
Josh recalls that his mother came into his room early one summer morning and told him she was moving out. He stayed with his father initially, then began alternating weeks between his parents' homes.
Helping Your Child Deal with Bullies
Q: How do I move forward? How do I respond to that child that was bullied, I didn't know?
Huerta recommends acknowledging the hurt, asking the child to share more, and considering counseling to help them process the experience. Parents can offer support without taking an angry reaction personally and work with the child on a safety plan if bullying could continue.
