Every time we open God’s word to read the account, it seems like it refreshes itself and becomes anew. That’s the truth of God’s word, isn’t it? It’s always fresh and comes alive. And the Christmas story is no different. By gathering to te...

Your Son Can Trust God, Answering the What-Ifs with Katy Boatman

But too often, their “what-if” questions are rooted in fear and anxiety as they try to find their way in a world that doesn’t always make sense. This easy-to-read devotional by Katy Boatman offers daily encouragement and truths to combat that worry. Each of the...

Navigating the Teenage Dating Years with James McKinney
We cannot contain our excitement for you to hear this conversation. James Mckinney joins us this episode to talk about his new (and first!) book, Navigating the Teenage Dating Years. We all have thoughts about our own dating paths, and for the most part, don’t want to replicate those with our own kids. ☺ So, what to do? Go with the culture? Do what everyone else is doing? Tell them to wait until they turn 16 and turn them loose? James Mckinney is a father of two teenagers and husband of twenty-three years to his wife, Melissa. ...

UPDATE: Hopefully you’ve listened to part 1 of this discussion with our friend, Caitlin Fechner. We’d highly recommend you listen to part 1 before diving in with us for part 2. We surveyed parents a few months ago about where they stood with regards to allowing (or not allowing) sleepovers for their kids.

A Family on Mission with Rebecca Rapp-Salas
Teaching our children to be selfless and think of others first is a big parenting goal always looming in the backs of our minds, but seriously, it’s hard in the day-to-day moments of life to really instill this into our children’s minds and hearts. Our society says worry about yourself! Focus on yourself! Take care of yourself! ME ME ME! But the scripture is clear, “So he answered and said, you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself.” Luke 10:27 Love God. ...

The Dangers of Growing Up in a Christian Home
In this episode of Raising Sinners, we talk about the dangers that might arise as we raise our kids. First and foremost, we want to guard against passing down a religion. No one needs more religion. But how do we pass on an authentic, Christian faith and not just a good, moral lifestyle? That’s the question. Susie Hawkins is our guest. Susie has been a mentor for Lisa and Chrissie, and a trusted advisor. She talks about the book she read early on in her parenting, that helped shape her approach to biblical parenting and passing down the baton of f...
