In this episode, I'm joined by Christian therapist Meaghan Hampton, who speacializes in helping parents heal, regulate, and lead their homes with peace instead of reactivity. Together we explore why our emotional health matters for the spiritual formation for our kids, what regulation actually looks like in a busy household, and how the gospel invites us into a calmer, more connected way of parenting. If you've ever wondered how to respond instead of react or break cycles you never meant to repeat - this conversation will encourage, equip, and remind you that transformation is possible

Is it wrong to read the Old Testament with out constantly looking for Jesus in every passage? Many Christians assume that if we're not readind the Old Testament (should we even call is that?) through the lens of the New, we're somehow missing the gospel - or worse, denying it all together. In this episdoe, we unpack the misconceptions surrounding that idea.

We'll explore why understanding the Old Testament on its own terms doesn't diminish Christ - it actually deepens our understanding of Him. From the coventant promises and prophetic hopes to the rich picture of God's character and grace, the Old Testament holds its own sacred voice within the grand story of redemption.

Join us as we talk about what's lost when we rish to the New Testament too quickly, and what's gained when we let the Old Testament speak for itself- before seeing how it beautifully leads us to Jesus.

As followers of Jesus, how do we engage with popular celebrations like Halloween? Do we have the freedom to read stories like Harry Potter and what about Yoga? In this episode, we talk about the importance of discernment - asking the deeper questions behind what we read, watch, and participate in. Rather than responding in fear or blind acceptance, we explore how Christian can cultivate wisdom, pay attention to conscience, and live with integrity in a culture full of gray areas. This conversation invites you to think critically, listen to the Spirits leading, and seek to glorify God as you love him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
