Doing Life Differently

Why We Watch The Chosen With Our 8 Year Old


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt the weight of discipleship as a parent, wondering if you’re doing enough, if your kids are really “getting it,” or if you’re falling short...this episode is for you.

I share the story of how my sister and I stumbled into a simple Friday night rhythm that has completely changed how our kids (and honestly, us too!) see Jesus: popcorn, staying up late, and watching The Chosen with our 8-year-olds.

If you’ve been carrying the pressure of leading your kids perfectly in faith, I hope this episode reminds you: it doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes the most powerful discipleship happens in the simplest family rhythms.

Resources I mention:

  • The Chosen (TV series)
  • The Bible - read the Gospel of John first!
  • The Action Bible (comic-style Bible that gave our kids context before we started watching)

I’d love to hear if you try this in your own home. Send me a message and let me know what it sparks for your family.

And if you’re here as an entrepreneur—don’t miss the end of the episode where I share about KJ Brand Coach GPT, my new on-demand coaching tool that helps you find clarity right in the middle of your messy moments.
