What is the ultimate goal of parenting? Is it raising well-behaved, successful kids, or raising lifelong followers of Jesus?In this episode, Kyle and Kelly challenge the idea that “good kids” should be the finish line. While character and obedience matter, God’s calling for parents goes much deeper. Scripture reminds us that parents are the primary disciplers of their children, and discipleship isn’t confined to church services or family devotions, it’s woven into the everyday moments of life.Join us as we talk about what it looks like to lead your family spiritually, model an authentic faith, and intentionally point your children to Christ in the ordinary rhythms of each day. Whether your kids are toddlers or teenagers, this conversation will encourage you to shift your focus from behavior modification to heart transformation and embrace the incredible privilege of raising disciples who love and follow Jesus.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Student LifePodcast! In this episode, we are starting off by sharing a part of our testimony. You’ll get to know us, hear how God brought us to Tennessee and into student ministry, and discover the heart behind this podcast.

We’ll talk about why our recent “Truth” series inspired usto create a space where conversations don’t end on Wednesday nights. Our desire is to help students go deeper in their faith, equip parents as the primary disciplers of their families, and answer the real questions students and parents are asking through the lens of God’s Word.

Whether you’re a student, parent, volunteer, or simplysomeone who wants to grow in your walk with Christ, we’re glad you’re here. We hope every episode encourages you to know Jesus more, trust His Word, and continue conversations that strengthen your faith at home and beyond.
