In this episode of Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Timothy Carney explore how individualism, economic shifts, and cultural changes have weakened family structures, urging communities—especially churches—to restore support and promote both marriage and singleness as paths to societal health. 

They discuss:

• The collapse of civil society and its impact on families
• The unintended consequences of modern parenting
• Religious subcultures and family norms
• Economic and political factors in family dynamics
• Cultural shifts affecting family life
• How churches can support families
• The importance of self-sacrifice in parenting
• The dignity of both marriage and singleness
• The role of community in supporting families
• Family decline and the economic and political implications
