In this episode, Caleb Gray is joined with Ainsley Freeman, author of Impress, speaker and children's ministry pastor, to explore how we can pass on faith to our kids with intention.
Ainsley shares practical wisdom on resisting the urge to be “impressive” and instead embracing storytelling, spiritual rhythms, and a countercultural approach to parenting.
