I had a powerhouse conversation with the incredible Kelly Grace, a spiritual mentor, podcaster, and coach. With over five decades of women’s ministry leadership and life as a pastor's wife, Kelly’s mission is to connect divine truth to daily life, and you can hear that wisdom in every word she speaks! I was so blessed as she shared how we can move past religion and rule-following to cultivate a deep, genuine, and conversational faith in our children's hearts.

Everything we do—from building our brand to sharing our message—is fueled by the impact we first make at home, on our children's little hearts. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, unsure of what to say, or like you’re not doing enough to pass on your faith, this episode is a breath of fresh air. Kelly brings decades of experience and shares her "truth in action" principles for effective, loving communication, both with our kids and our spouses! We covered everything from those recurring marital conflicts to transforming everyday moments into spiritual breakthroughs. Seriously, grab a notebook—this conversation is pure gold.

The single, simple phrase you can use to immediately take responsibility in a conflict and disarm a defensive spouse (plus, the crucial fourth step you need to exit the conversation with grace!).

Why the "golden window" between ages 4 and 14 is your sweetest spot of opportunity to influence your child’s faith, and the surprising way you might be overthinking it.

How to stop relying on formal "family devotions" and start effortlessly weaving God's truth into your daily life—from the carpool lane to the dinner table—to help your child develop their own history with God.

The biblical truth about correction and training that has nothing to do with punishment, and everything to do with steering your family's course toward love.
