In this two-part episode, we’re diving into what it really means to build a biblical marriage—one strong enough to withstand cultural collapse and fruitful enough to launch a legacy.

This isn’t a romanticized vision of marriage. It’s covenant. It’s mission. It’s the glory and grit of forming a household that reflects the gospel, raises arrows, and opens the front door in hospitality and strength.

🎧 Listen to Part 1 now and share it with a couple who needs to be reminded:Your household matters more than your honeymoon.

In Part 1, we cover:

✅ Marriage as Covenant, Not Contract

“Love follows obedience—not the other way around.”

✅ God’s Blueprint for Husbands and Wives

Shepherds and builders. Not CEOs and sidekicks.

✅ Fruitfulness in Mission, Children, and Hospitality

“Your marriage isn’t a cul-de-sac. It’s a launchpad.”

✅ How Ephesians 5 and Psalm 127 Reframe the Household

Christ and the Church. Arrows and legacy. A house on purpose.

🛠️ Action Step This Week:Pray with your spouse. Read Ephesians 5 or Malachi 2 together. Ask God to deepen your covenant and sharpen your mission.

The Household Reformation PodcastBold theology. Strong households. Everyday faithfulness.

Modern education pretends to be neutral. It’s not. Every classroom is a battleground of belief. In this episode of The Household Reformation Podcast, Bryan and Pastor Austin walk through the forgotten roots of Christian education— tracing the roots from Athens to Rome to Jerusalem. We talk about the trivium and the difference between a Classical Christian education and a non-classical, but distinctly Christian education. Tutor-households. Paideia. And why the kitchen table— not the state— is the true center of learning.

We also tackle the myth of neutrality, the role of fathers in discipleship, and how beauty, poetry, and biblical memory shape the soul. Whether you homeschool, private school, or something in between— this episode is a call to reclaim education as worship.

Highlights:

* Why your household is the first seminary

* The classical roots of Western Christian education

* The problem with outsourcing to Caesar

* How tutor-households form disciples, not just students

* Austin’s perspective as the head of a Christian school

* Recovering joy, beauty, and gospel-driven formation

This isn’t about test scores.It’s about souls.

Today we’re talking about something that gets dismissed as outdated by the world — and forgotten by most of the church. But it’s the driving force for why this podcast exists— household reformation.

Last week, our church held a conference on building a Christian counterculture, and one of the primary topics was: Household Reformation. So, what is it? Why does it matter? And, where do we begin to build?

Welcome to The Household Reformation Podcast — where we shape words and forge culture. I'm Bryan Furlong, a Reformed Baptist, husband, father, and writer dedicated to rebuilding the ruins of Christendom, one household, one conversation, one generation at a time.
