In this powerful and eye-opening episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor unpacks the hidden forces shaping today’s children and equips parents with the clarity and confidence they need to lead with purpose.

For nearly 400 years, Western culture was built on a Protestant worldview where work had meaning, family was sacred, discipline was discipleship, and children were seen as image-bearers with purpose. But between the 1800s and early 1900s, new thinkers fundamentally shifted how society viewed identity, childhood, morality, and the family.

Angie breaks down how three influential voices Freud, Skinner, and Marx reshaped modern education, psychology, and culture, and why parents today feel like they’re swimming upstream. She explains:

  • Freud: “Your desires define you.”
  • Skinner: “You’re just a product of conditioning.”
  • Marx: “Society not the family should shape the child.”

These worldviews still dominate schools, media, and youth culture. But the good news? Parents are still the #1 influence in a child’s life. And with understanding comes the power to reclaim your child’s formation.
