Legacy Dads with Dave and Dante

A couple episodes ago we talked about treasure - and where we find it. This week, we continue along the same lines but shift the conversation to the proper view of relationship. What is our relationship with God? What about with our spouse? What about with our kids? When our relationship with God is askew, we can be sure that our relationships with others will follow suit. In this episode, listen to Dave and Dante discuss the importance of a “right relationship” and how it can impact our legacy. Care to support Dave in his upcoming mission support trip to Paraguay? Dave is heading to Paraguay to partner with Unusual Soldiers (https://www.unusualsoldiers.com) and the Pioneer Initiative (https://www.worldhorizonsusa.org/pioneer-initiative) to provide preparation and training to share the gospel throughout the world.

Treasure-hunting isn't just for pirates or kids acting like pirates. Instead, many of us find ourselves hunting treasure daily. What is the thing that makes us feel like we've attained a certain level of value? What are you hunting? In this episode, Dave and Dante sit down to talk about seeking treasure, and the one true place we can find it. When it comes to being a legacy dad, be sure to know where that treasure lies (it's literally in the Bible...so not much hunting is required), and lead your family to it as well. Let that legacy be built on a treasure that will never spoil! Legacy Dads is proud to be partnered with the Christian Parenting Network of podcasts.

A recent Pew research study showed that 25% of 40-year-old adults in the US have never been married. When we think of "legacy," it's important for men to understand what God's design for legacy is - and that is in the covenant of marriage and fulfilling the command to multiply and subdue the earth. In this episode, Dave and Dante discuss this study and other current statistics that show that marriage is not only important to leaving a solid Christian legacy, but is also fiercely under attack by the enemy. Listen in and take the stand to protect biblical marriage as God designed!

Are you blessed, or are you wicked? If you look at Psalm 1, you're one or the other, and there isn't any middle ground. When it comes to leaving a lasting legacy, men must do the things that lead to a life that is blessed and righteous. Listen in as Dave and Dante discuss this psalm and talk through ways to bring it into our lives so that we stay on the narrow path towards eternal life with Jesus.

What's your testimony? Have you shared it with anybody? If not, why not? And if so, how'd it go? In this episode, Dave and Dante discuss the power of personal testimony - reporting to others how God has rescued you from the grip of sin and death and restored you to a life of eternity in heaven with Him. Sharing a testimony often involves vulnerability, but through vulnerability we create community. And when we have community, we are able to move into any mission before us and execute! Using biblical foundations, the guys talk about the power of testimony and encourage you to consider sharing yours with those around you. Share what God has done in your life...and see how it may inspire others to do just the same! Legacy Dads is proud to be partnered with the Christian Parenting Network of Podcasts.

In this episode, we were blessed to sit and talk with Dr. Gary Lawrence to discuss his new book "Rejection Junkies," a best-selling guide to recognizing the damaging effects of rejection that starts when we are young. In this authoritative work, Dr. G reveals those people, places, things, and circumstances that hold us hostage, keep us stuck, and make us bitter. As a true freedom coach, he offers powerful and practical steps to take to unplug from these “emotional energy thieves” forever! Problems are nothing new to Gary and his wife, Sylvia. For decades they faced and weathered almost every major life problem—from career and finances to faith and family—by understanding and living out timeless and unchanging principles. They know where and how true mental and emotional freedom can be found. Gary and Sylvia have spent their lives successfully leading others to “identify, isolate, and eliminate” the root cause of people’s problems. They went on to found and direct the “New Life Dynamics Christian Counseling Center” for twenty-three years. Gary also hosted a live radio call-in program (Life Mastery Radio) for twenty years. Listen in and enjoy the wisdom and guidance passed on from this man to men, husbands, and fathers of all ages and in all stages of life! For more about Dr. G, visit https://www.rejectionjunkies.com.
