Dad Tired

Teaching Your Kids The Apostles Creed (and why it matters...)


Listen Later

Most dads want to disciple their kids—but sometimes we don’t know where to start. In this episode, Kaleb shares a simple rhythm he’s been using in his own home: teaching the Apostles’ Creed. Whether it’s on car rides, walks, or at bedtime, this ancient confession of faith has become a bridge to talk about who God is and what we believe as a family.

As Kaleb walks through each line of the Creed, he focuses on one most of us overlook: “He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.” He unpacks what that means for our daily discipleship—how it shapes the way we pray, parent, and live under the reign of King Jesus.

Through personal stories, biblical teaching, and practical insight, this episode will help you see how even ancient words can lead to modern transformation right in your own home.

With a mix of theology and real-life dad moments, you’ll learn to:

  • Use the Apostles’ Creed as a tool for family discipleship
  • Explain big doctrines in simple language your kids can grasp
  • See how the Ascension reveals Jesus as both Savior and King
  • Understand the connection between Christ’s reign and your everyday mission
  • Bring faith into your family’s ordinary rhythms

Prayer:
“Father, thank You that Jesus reigns as King—and that His finished work means I can rest, lead, and love my family with confidence and peace.”
