This episode breaks down 3 of the 10 surprising practices of multi-generational families that Jeremy has identified.

From celebrating talent in big families (without relying on teachers/coaches/tutors/etc.), to protecting daughters from the degenerate culture of feminism, to setting up the family leadership under a respected and cherished patriarch and matriach...these things are counter-cultural, but that's what we need if we're ever going to build a multi-generational family.

Today's culture certainly isn't building them!

On this episode, we talk about:

This debate shone so much light on the state of the world and how most feminists and young women are thinking about family.

It's tragic, but really informative for those of us trying to build strong families that honor both genders, both parents and children, and all generations.

Jeremy and his daughter Kelsey react to a recent debate between 3 women on the topic of whether feminism is creating lonely, broken men.

They specifically focus on a couple of points:

- The assumption by so many that motherhood is miserable, and,

- The roles of mothers in community building

On this episode, we talk about:

0:00 Intro

3:28 Feminists think motherhood is miserable

15:10 Why is the narrative of parental misery so popular?

21:53 The roles women play in community building

31:31 Build for the future generations

What's the big deal about thinking that people inherently struggle with wickedness in their heart (a Christian belief)?

OK great, just some theology, right?

Wrong. This one, seemingly innocuous question changes everything.

In fact, it's at the core of the anti-Christian, anti-life, anti-wisdom movement that's unfolding with increasing speed in our world today.

Jeremy and Sydney react to a couple all-time great takes by Dennis Prager, and discuss the importance of this one belief and how it shapes all of society.

This is an eclectic discussion about:

1. Answering the problem of evil (important for all Christians to understand),
2. The power of storytelling (why it points to the reality of God, and how important it is in parenting),
3. Finding truth in stories in a post-Christian world (and why the new Snow White Sucks), and
4. The parenting mistake of choosing self-esteem over courage

This is a fun and wide ranging conversation that will at the very least open up you up to thinking more deeply about the media you consume, the stories you tell your kids, and hopefully even strengthen your faith.

On this episode, we talk about:
