Keeping Faith in the Busyness of Life with Tim and Hannah
In this episode, Ed sits around the kitchen table with Tim and Hannah to ask: What’s it like to be a busy Christian parent?Spoiler alert: It’s a bit overwhelming. And a bit joyful. And often both at once.Tim and Hannah’s home is full - three kids, a Labrador, a Ukrainian house guest, an Airbnb, and 20 teenagers round every Sunday night. Life is busy, but this episode isn’t about burnout - it’s about how Jesus meets us in the middle of the chaos.They share what it means to say no to good things, to fiercely guard Saturdays, and to prioritise what lasts: a relationship with Jesus. Tim reflects on the challenge of self-reliance, and how faith often feels distant - until God shows up in the unexpected moments, like a car ride or a chat at church.From Bible times that fall apart to sticker-covered Bibles that suddenly work, it’s a reminder that we’re not failing parents just because we feel like we are - because God hasn’t let go of us, or our children.Support the show
