In this final episode of our Back to the Basics series, we explore one of the most meaningful themes in all of Scripture: legacy. From Abraham to David to Jesus to the early believers, God has always worked through families and generations to carry His story forward.

Together, we trace how the Old and New Testaments reveal a God who keeps His promises and invites us to join His generational plan. The same faith that began with Abraham is the faith we hand to our children today.

This episode encourages families to:
 • Tell the big story of Scripture in simple, everyday ways
 • Show children how Jesus fulfills the promises God made in the Hebrew Scriptures
 • Build rhythms at home that help faith take root
 • See their parenting as part of God’s long, beautiful plan

You’ll also hear practical ideas to bring legacy-building into your home this week, including creating a family faith timeline, sharing testimonies, connecting the biblical feasts to Jesus, and writing blessing letters to your children.

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or mentor, this episode will remind you that the most important thing you can leave your children is a living, growing faith - a faith they will carry into the generations that come after you.

In this episode, Rachel Kushner invites us to slow down and rediscover God’s rhythm for our lives. Not musical rhythm, but the sacred pattern of rest woven into creation itself. Many of us are running at a pace God never designed, filling our days with good things and meaningful commitments, yet becoming exhausted in the process. Rachel shares how this constant busyness quietly shapes our spiritual health and family dynamics. When we’re depleted, our patience shrinks, our joy fades, and even the best activities can lead to burnout. Recognizing our limits is not weakness. It’s wisdom that helps us return to the basics God intended.

Rachel encourages us to realign our schedules and our hearts with the rhythm God modeled from the very beginning. Rest is not optional. It is essential for well-being, spiritual clarity, and peace in our homes. Understanding and embracing God’s rhythm can transform how we live, parent, and connect with Him. When we prioritize rest, we step into a life that is more balanced, sustainable, and anchored in His presence. This episode is an invitation to slow it down, breathe deeply, and allow God’s design to guide us forward.

Rosh Hashanah, also known as the Jewish New Year or the Feast of Trumpets, is a time of reflection, repentance, and remembering God’s goodness. In this episode, Rachel shares the deeper meaning of the shofar, the ram’s horn, that calls God’s people to wake up and turn back to Him.

Through personal reflections of grief and hope, Rachel opens her heart about the loss of her son, David, and the comfort she finds in the promises of Scripture. Just as the shofar announces something important, we look forward to the day when the trumpet will sound, and Jesus will return. Until then, we are called to live in faith, draw closer to Him, and build family traditions that keep our eyes on the hope of His coming.

This episode will encourage you to pause, reflect on your own walk with the Lord, and embrace the joy of Rosh Hashanah as a reminder that our ultimate hope is found in Jesus.
