Don't Let People Pleasing Destroy Your Family
It’s not easy to prevent “people pleasing” from altering our parenting decisions, but it’s vital if you want to launch confident Christian kids into a further uncertain world. If you’re really honest with yourself you’ll likely see areas you cave to pressure by others to make inferior choices. Multiple inferior decisions made for the sake of pleasing others over time will likely accumulate into inferior fruitfulness compared to what’s possible. It’s not easy to be a courageous parent, but it’s required in this increasingly fallen world. Tune into to get practical advice and encouragement to stand strong and make the best decisions for your family even when it goes against what looks normal around you.

Pursue Projects That Require Family Teamwork - Part 2
Have you thought about the idea that there could be limits on what you even think about attempting as a family due to not realizing the potential of your team at home? We believe it’s important to do things that require your family to help on purpose. In this episode, we give you practical ideas/projects to do based on the different age levels of your kids. Let’s keep doing things that require more than our own strengths so we have to rely on God and our family. Otherwise, we may decide to do less based on our own abilities and limit the desire within our kids to contribute.
