Bethany and Adam sit down with longtime friend and disciple-maker Dean Plumlee. Dean spent over 25 years in surf ministry before God led him into a whole new chapter—mentoring pastors, parents, and leaders through Sonlife, a ministry grounded in the life and method of Jesus.

Dean unpacks how discipleship starts in the home, how he’s raised his three kids to know and love Jesus, and what it means to be a man who leads with courage, rejects passivity, and embraces responsibility. From hiking the Appalachian Trail with his sons to navigating tech boundaries and awkward conversations with honesty and grace, this episode is packed with wisdom, real stories, and encouragement for parents and spouses.
