How Mark & Michelle Have Built A Family On Mission To Build God's Kingdom

What does it really mean to live as a family on mission?

In this inspiring episode of the Family Teams Podcast, Jeremy is joined by Mark and Michelle Tiderman, this month’s Accelerator community coaches, to share their journey of following God as a family.

From meeting on the mission field in Mexico City to planting roots in Fairfield, Ohio, the Tiderman's reveal how they’ve woven mission into every stage of life - raising kids, coaching sports, hosting neighbors, even starting a CrossFit community.

You’ll hear how they’ve learned to see family not as an obstacle to mission, but as God’s design for mission itself.

If you’ve ever wondered how to blend family life with kingdom purpose, this episode is full of practical wisdom and powerful stories.
