Show notes

We are in exciting times, and I am here for it! It’s been so good to see President Trump get in the Oval Office and get to work. I’m also answering the great questions you guys sent in: How do we interact with non-Christian family members? How do I best help my granddaughter while her parents are going through an ugly divorce? How do you feel about church membership? How do we start a homeschool resource center? Our church isn’t answering our requests for more discipleship. Should we go somewhere else?

Show notes

Every parent of multiple children understands the challenges that come with sibling relationships, and we’re here today to encourage and guide you on how to foster those relationships. Then as our kids move into the tween and teen years, their brains change and with that, their emotional needs change too. My good friend Sherri Seligson, mother of four, veteran homeschool mom, and author is with me today sharing practical tips and wisdom she learned through her parenting years.

In a bonus segment, we have Tricia Goyer joining us as she and Sherri talk about their delightful new book “Wondersof the Ocean Realm” and the importance of faith as we explore science.

Sex Change Regret with Walt Heyer Jan 17, 2025

Show notes

Of all the social struggles we are experiencing in the world today, perhaps none has done more damage than the insidious lie that a person’s biological sex can be altered through hormones and surgery. My guest today can speak to the tragedy of this social contagion with authority and compassion—because he was a victim of this ideology himself. Walt Heyer joins me to shine a bright light into the dark world of “transgenderism” and share his powerful story of redemption and recovery from childhood grooming and trauma. Walt courageously shares his heartache and the regret he lives with because he underwent sex “reassignment” surgery and lived as a woman for 8 years. We’ll talk about why we must stop using language that normalizes scenarios that aren’t even physically possible. This is a powerful interview that you will want to share—because it’s a story of the hope and healing that’s available in Christ.

Patterns of Addiction: What to Watch for and What to Do with Dr. Tim Clinton Jan 15, 2025

How do you know if a habit has become an addiction? And what do you do if it has? What causes us to become addicted? There are a lot of questions about this issue, and my friend Dr. Tim Clinton from the American Association of Christian Counselors is here to help us with the answers and offer resources if you’re looking for a place to go. The Lord’s desire is to set us free.

Mailbox Monday | Affirmation Culture, Parenting Regret and More Jan 13, 2025

Show notes

You guys ask the best questions! How can we encourage pastors? Should Christians be using “affirmations”? Should we celebrate my non-Christian friends adopting a baby?

A mom is asking if it’s ok to take a break from church for a chronically ill son, another mom is grieving her years of not serving the Lord as her son is now uninterested in following Christ and is living with his girlfriend, and a woman is struggling to be intimate with her husband while she has some physical issues. Listen in friends, I think you’ll be encouraged!
