Tim and Conor sit down to discuss Conor’s popular book, Parenting for Eternity: A Guide to Raising Children in Holy Mother Church. They explore the essential question at the heart of Catholic parenting: How do we raise our children with eternity in mind?

Together, they dive into key themes from the book, including the importance of creating a vision for parenting, the role of suffering in raising holy children, whether a deeper focus on eternity would lead to more or fewer kids, and why caring for both body and soul now is essential preparation for the life to come.

They consider parenting through the lens of the Four Last Things—Death, Judgment, Hell, and Heaven—highlighting why Catholic parents must raise saints by preparing their children for their ultimate destiny. From teaching kids to think about death in a healthy way to the Church Fathers’ insights on death, the power of the Rosary, and the reality of Hell, this conversation is a wake-up call for parents to instill both the aversion to sin and the hope of Heaven in their children.
