Now That We're A Family
Elisha and Katie Voetberg
Culture has reduced the modern family to a joke -- informing parents they are only capable of shuttling their children from expert to expert who experiment with untested agendas. Katie and Elisha lean on their experience growing up in large families of 10 and 11 kids, to encourage parents to take back control, stop listening to popular relationship advice, and embrace their God-given role as their children's primary authority.

017: What We’re Working on Personally | The Stop. Go. Grow. Method.
For this entire episode, we refer to a tool @thegiant5guy taught us a couple years ago. It’s been an invaluable resource for stepping back when we don’t like what’s happening in our lives, but we also don’t know what to change. “Stop. Go. Grow!” enables you to get out of the foggy day to day …
