In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella talks with Dr. Josh Mulvihill, executive director of Church and Family Ministry at Renew a Nation, about why parents must be actively discerning about what their kids are being taught at church. They discuss troubling research on biblical worldview among children’s pastors, the dangers of outsourcing discipleship, and why curriculum alone is not enough.
Dr. Mulvihill challenges parents to know:
👉 Key takeaway: If you’re sending your kids to children’s or youth ministry, you need to be involved, informed, and discerning.

Homeschool moms often feel an unspoken pressure to do everything—every class, every sport, every opportunity—just to prove they’re not failing their children.
In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella and Kristi Clover talk candidly about the lies moms believe about busyness, enrichment, and success—and how those lies quietly steal peace, family time, and spiritual focus.
They remind us of a freeing truth: God never called parents to provide everything—only a firm foundation rooted in Him.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying no…If you’ve wondered whether you’re “doing enough”…If your family calendar feels fuller than your heart…
This conversation will encourage you to step back, pray for discernment, and replace pressure with peace.

What is the proper role of children’s and youth ministry in the church—and where does family discipleship fit in?
In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to unpack a critical issue facing churches and families today: the growing tendency to outsource discipleship to the church rather than equipping parents to lead spiritually in the home.
Dr. Mulvihill explains why even well-intentioned children’s and youth ministries can unintentionally step outside God’s design when they replace—rather than support—parents. He introduces what he calls the “Superman Syndrome,” where pastors feel compelled to fill the discipleship gap when parents disengage, and why that model ultimately falls short.
Together, Aby and Dr. Josh explore:
Whether you’re a homeschool parent, a pastor, or someone involved in children’s or youth ministry, this conversation will encourage you to anchor your efforts in God’s Word—and remain faithful, even when things get hard.

Many families are homeschooling today—but not all of them are clear on why.
In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to talk about the deeper purpose behind homeschooling and how it connects directly to children’s and youth ministry in the church.
Dr. Mulvihill challenges parents and church leaders to think beyond what they’re running from and instead focus on what they’re intentionally running to: faithful discipleship rooted in Scripture.
