  • Love them!

    I started listening to this podcast a year ago when my husband and I were experiencing friction in our marriage. We have only been married for 3 years and I was feeling defeated given the constant friction we were having so soon. This podcast was so refreshing to the soul and it was so encouraging to fight for my marriage through Christ.

    I’ve loved this podcast for years and the past year Aaron talks about 80%+ of the time about himself and doesn’t let the guest speak! Disappointed.

  • Not just for new moms!

    Just finished listening to the interview with Hannah Keeley. I am in her stage of life with older children and grandchildren, but this interview was so helpful for me. Hannah is absolutely correct that it is never too late to cultivate a healthy relationship with your children, no matter how old they are. I struggled as a mom when they were younger, but through years of building my relationship with God I was lead to begin doing what God wanted me to with my older children. I am so thankful that... more

  • Truly a Blessing

    Dear Aaron and Jennifer,

    First off, let me start by saying thank you. As a husband to be, my girlfriend called me to take on a serious role months ago, and that is to lead our relationship biblically. Your book (Aaron), Husband After God, has done an amazing job preparing me for the day I officially become husband. It’s the one title in this world I feel many men should strive to earn AND work to keep up. You made an interesting point a couple episodes back that so many men focus on areas of th... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Don’t Doubt in the Dark: Raising Kids Who Can Wrestle with Faith
Q: Why did you guys structure it that way?
Kruger says the devotional follows Deuteronomy 6: parents are to love God and keep his Word in their own hearts before teaching it to their children. It gives parents context for the passage, a big idea, questions, and a family application so they can feel prepared to discuss Scripture together.
Don’t Doubt in the Dark: Raising Kids Who Can Wrestle with Faith
Q: How did you prepare your kids for the questions and the doubts?
Kruger describes inviting questions during family devotions, using questions about the Gospels to encourage critical thinking, and modeling how to respond when parents do not know an answer. She says parents should listen, ask what their children mean, and keep the conversation open rather than lecture or condemn them.
How Your Marriage Affects Your Children with Jennifer Pepito
Q: What advice would you give to new homeschooling families facing fears about starting?

Navigating Media as a Christian Family with Dan and Peggy Rupple
Q: What does it mean to view media through the lens of faith?

Q: How did you manage a long marriage while working in Hollywood for decades?
