Today’s episode of Fierce Parenting delivers powerful, practical encouragement for busy parents: real connection with your kids doesn’t need grand gestures. Turn everyday errands into memory-making moments and step into whatever your child already loves—comics, hunting, puzzles, or politics—because you love them. Simple, authentic time builds trust and opens hearts for deeper conversations. Start small, pray to see the opportunities, and remember: a shared soda on a back road can mean more than a big vacation. Heartfelt, doable wisdom for every parent.

We’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new children’s book series! Each story is built on the unshakable truths of God’s Word, designed to plant seeds of faith in the hearts of little ones. The world is full of confusion, but apart from God there is no truth. So how do we help our children grasp the big truths of God in ways their young hearts can understand? Join us as we share the heart behind each title and talk about the importance of teaching biblical truth to the next generation.

There are some teens that have a natural light and whimsy to their presence that is so enjoyable to be around. Now our question is why? And how can we cultivate that light in childhood and help them maintain that through their teen years?
