Biblical roles in marriage don’t have to be hard, and living it out well in your relationship is essential for a strong multi-generational legacy.

If you want a more peaceful home don’t take the normal parenting short-term approach. Correcting your children’s behavior is important and it’s vital to be consistent, but if you don’t tend to their hearts while doing so, it will lead to frustration over time. It also misses an important opportunity for getting to the heart level of the issue with your children that should end by pointing them to Jesus. A biblically based approach to correcting your children. Remember, if you don’t have their heart in this season, you will likely lose it in the next. Just think about it, most Christian parents don’t have their children’s hearts in a strong enough way in today’s society, but it’s essential.

We all must ask this question and be willing to be honest about it. With about 80% of the children raised in Christian homes leaving the church by age 18, we must do things differently than most Christian parents. So who is spiritually leading your family? As parents, I hope we all would want to say “We are”, but the truth is most aren’t. Not with the intentionality and frequency the bible talks about in Deuteronomy 6:6-9. While a church&#39;s influence is good and needed, if that’s where they get most of their Spiritual nourishment, then parents are failing in this area.

Isaac and Angie Tolpin dive into what the Bible says about gender roles in the family and the importance of both mom and dad having influence while respecting God’s plan for the family. They even go into what if your husband isn’t a Christian, and direction for single moms and dads too.

There is an attack on the food supply that aligns with some of the nefarious goals of powerful people and organizations.

Hormones are a big conversation but an important one for parents. Every child is impacted by the changes that occur in their bodies as they grow, but families are also impacted by the hormones of Mom and Dad as well. While this conversation might seem timely in this day and age, it’s always been a needed conversation for parents. We must discipline our children to have a healthy and biblical view of the human body, and that requires parental intervention in a culture that is rampantly teaching opposing views. Join Isaac and Angie as they tackle a diverse topic with grace and understanding while also sharing biblical truths and things they have learned along the way.
