Culture is loud, busy, and bossy—and too often it sets the rules in our homes. We talk with Pastor Alan Jackson about a quiet rebellion built on three simple habits: read the whole Bible, reclaim a weekly family table, and make one-sentence prayer as normal as saying hello. No theatrics, no heavy programs—just clear steps that put Scripture back at the center, return authority to parents, and invite God into everyday moments at work, school, and the grocery line.

We unpack how a daily Bible rhythm can reshape a leader’s instincts in under fifteen minutes a day, why a device-free meal each week acts like a spiritual wellness check, and how hospitality becomes the back-up plan for empty-nesters. Alan challenges dads to move beyond the bleachers and step into spiritual leadership, pushing back on secular schedules that outrank discipleship. He shares practical language for setting boundaries with coaches and schools, and offers a deceptively simple prayer practice: hear a need, say “Let’s pray,” speak one sentence in Jesus’ name, say amen, and move on. It’s faith in public without the weird—and it builds a reputation that draws people when crisis hits.

We also talk about the power of the Holy Spirit to do what our effort cannot. The early disciples were told to wait for power; modern families and public servants need the same help. Along the way, Alan shares unforgettable stories—gym-floor prayers, long drives for truth, and signs that God is moving when ordinary Christians take small, faithful steps. If you’re ready to lead at home, influence your community, and see practical change without burnout, this conversation gives you a plan you can start today.
