Family worship and devotions can be an ongoing source of guilt. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

In today’s podcast we are going to talk with Dr. David Murray. Dr. Murray has just released the book Exploring the Bible Together: A 52-week Family Worship plan.

But before you become overwhelmed with that take a listen to this podcast. You will discover that it is a simple plan that takes about 4-5 minutes a day. I think you are going to love it. In addition, it is family companion to the study for individual use. So your children 7-12 are working on it by themselves and then come to report it to the whole family that night. But the family devotional book can stand on its own.

Not again! You’ve lost it with the children, yelling at them and hitting the table. And you see them cower in fear or scramble to their rooms. You end up feeling ashamed and embarrassed. “What is wrong with me?” you say to yourself. “How can I get control of my anger?” In this podcast, we’re going to talk about answers to that question. We’re going to listen in on a webinar that I conducted on that very topic.

Words, words, words. If you’re a parent, words are flying around your house. Sometimes those words are helpful, and as you well know, many times they’re sinful. How do we get a handle on all those words? How do we communicate well, and how do we teach our children to communicate well? In this podcast, we’re going to talk about five principles of healthy communication.

The media, internet, and screens can seem like a tsunami, overwhelming us and our children. Sometimes it seems to disciple our children more than we do. What should a parent do?

In this podcast, I talked with Tim Challies about his perspective on the media and its use in his family. In our time together we talked about some insights on this new world that could guide us as parents.

Does Christian history seem boring to you? Would you like a fun flyover of Christian History to gain some perspective on your heritage as a Christian?

In this podcast, I talked with Tim Challies about his new book and video series – Epic – An Around-the-World Journey through Christian History.

This is a strange and disruptive time that got me thinking about hosting a fire-side chat or webinar to help us get through this time. I hosted my first last Tuesday night. It was entitled Fathers at Home: Finding Joy in the New Normal.

I spent some time giving 12 suggestions for dads. The time together starts with perspective and becomes more and more practical as the chat goes on. Although it is aimed at dads, it definitely could apply to moms as well. I hope you will be helped by it.

There's so much confusing parenting advice out there. Everyone seems to have an opinion. But who's right? What if we could cut through the clutter and hear from a real expert? What if we could hear from God himself?

Sometimes we need to go back to a book with just God's words in it, and say, "This is what God commands." Pastor Erik Raymond did an excellent job succinctly opening up a passage in Ephesians 6. I liked it so much that I wanted to share it with you.

Valentine's Day is upon us again. Like it or not, it affects us. The messages of romantic love come at us and our children. Can we capture them for good?

We want to have the joy of telling others about Jesus and we want to train our children in this way also. It is a joyful privilege when God uses us.

But how do we go about doing that? Sharing the love of Christ is often a individual endeavor. In today’s podcast, I have a conversation with Tim Zulker and Miranda Laughlin about a summer park ministry that has flourished here in Providence. It is called Summer Off. It might be a way for you and your family to lead a summer outreach in your area.

You've been married now for more than a few years. Kids are everywhere. Work is hard. Fights seem to be increasing. Is this what you signed up for? Would you do it again? Would you still say "I do"?

In today’s podcast, we are going to continue talking with Dave Harvey. In this time together we're going to be talking about his newest book, which is scheduled to drop in January of 2020, I Still Do: Growing Closer and Stronger through Life's Defining Moments. I think it will help you do just that. In this conversation we just scratch the surface of the riches that are in this resource as Dave takes us to look at some defining moment that couples that have been married a while go through.
