The Heidi St. John Podcast

UPDATE: Since I recorded this… in the last few hours, we have seen that God is bringing Bobby back to us. He is moving, responding and even moving his arm on command! God is able!!!

As we continue to walk this road through tragedy after my nephew’s recent accident, I’m learning how much I love the body of Christ.  We’ve never had suffering quite like this in our family, and while we pray and wait for Bobby’s healing, we’re continuing to be reminded of what really matters. We trust as believers in the goodness of God, and we know that He is working even now.

Romans 8:28

El Roi – the God who sees

El Raphah – the God who heals

Psalm 147:3

Dare to Be A Daniel – Talking to Your Kids About Standing for the Lord – This is startlingly new territory for parents: explaining why a man is being celebrated as a woman on the cover of a magazine is not something we’re used to talking about. Here’s the thing: If we don’t set a place for the truth of Scripture at the table of our children’s hearts, the world will set out a feast all it’s own.

9 Ways to Point Your Teen Daughter to Jesus – Then it happens, she becomes a “teen”, a “young adult”, a “young woman”. And you’re no longer sure of yourself, and you begin to question every.single.decision. you’ve ever made concerning her upbringing. You start to give in to some fear that she will throw off all you’ve taught her, and become something completely other than you. And, you know what? She does.

Bringing Up Boys Series – Podcast 1 – Podcast 2 – Podcast 3 – The culture is headed toward gender neutrality—but the Word of God tells us that God created us male and female… by design! Embrace the difference between the sexes with Heidi St. John and Durenda Wilson. Between them, they have been raising seven boys!  Be encouraged!

Let Your Kids be Bored – Are you hearing it? “I’m B O R E D, Mom!” It’s so easy to turn on the tv or video games just so the kids will be occupied and avoid telling us they’re bored, but it’s only a good solution for the short term.  Kids need to be bored, and today I’m talking about why!

Schedule a Moment to Wonder – Today with online learning, Chromebooks and Ipods, Ipads and Iphones, Google and cable television our children see almost exclusively what man has made–and often the very worst of what man has made at that. Rarely do they see what God has made. I want to encourage you to get outside as often as possible.  You’ll be surprised at how much learning happens in those moments.  Linger in God’s magnificent creation at least once or twice each week and see how your life begins to change. Watch as your children begin to grow spiritual eyes that can see the Creator who lurks behind the Creation.

Dangerous Book for Boys – The bestselling book for every boy from eight to eighty, covering essential boyhood skills such as building tree houses*, learning how to fish, finding true north, and even answering the age old question of what the big deal with girls is.

In this digital age there is still a place for knots, skimming stones and stories of incredible courage. This book recaptures Sunday afternoons, stimulates curiosity, and makes for great father-son activities. The brothers Conn and Hal have put together a wonderful collection of all things that make being young or young at heart fun—building go-carts and electromagnets, identifying insects and spiders, and flying the world’s best paper airplanes.

The Daring Book for Girls – The Daring Book for Girls is the manual for everything that girls need to know—and that doesn’t mean sewing buttonholes! Whether it’s female heroes in history, secret note-passing skills, science projects, friendship bracelets, double dutch, cats cradle, the perfect cartwheel or the eternal mystery of what boys are thinking, this book has it all. But it’s not just a guide to giggling at sleepovers—although that’s included, of course! Whether readers consider themselves tomboys, girly-girls, or a little bit of both, this book is every girl’s invitation to adventure.
