Spiritual and Secular: The Power of Adult Friendships. In this episode we discuss how love within friendship from a Christian and Secular point of view. Friendship is a reflection of God’s love for us and also how we connect with one another through not just our spiritual convictions but also seeing each other in our individual humanity. At the same time we highlight the universal values of trust, loyalty, and support that make adult friendships essential in everyday life.

Join me I Am Lacy P in conversation with Robert Jackson as he discuss how he and his wife Adrain are raising Generations Z and the emerging Generation Alpha. Hear how Robert’s parenting style- shaped by being a Millennial raised by Silent Generation and Baby Boomer parents- both mirrors and differs from his own upbringing.

We’ve all the saying, “it take a village to raise a child”- but what happens when we grow up? In this episode, Join me as I speak with Aerias Hurd, founder and CEO of Honored Abilities as he discusses how we as adults still need too, and how that village often isn’t the one we were born into. Through honest conversation and real stories, we talk about building chosen family: friends who become siblings, mentors who become parents, and communities who remind us we are not alone. This is a heartfelt look at why connection, trust, and intellectual relationships matter just as much about n adulthood as they did in childhood- and maybe even more.
