When your children grow up and get married, it’s a glorious life milestone, and we get to witness our children grow up to move into the next season and journey in their lives, which will likely span their lifetime! It’s awesome, but the fallen world has completely influenced the reputation and expectations one has of the Mother-in-law and Father-in-law, so much so that none of us likely want to be one, yet we all will be one day, Lord willing. When I say we don’t want to be one, what I mean is that we don’t want to be viewed the way the world views these roles within a family!! Well, as biblical people, let’s reclaim this wonderful position and role in the family with grace, confidence, and truth! Join us for this lively conversation where we look at the role of the family parents when their children marry, leave, and cleave, as well as what the Bible teaches regarding what we could call one another, rather than MIL and FIL!

A Turning Point in Parenting: Charlie Kirk’s Assassination
Part of equipping your children is giving biblical perspectives on the important events and issues of our time. So how do you talk about the Charlie Kirk assassination and what are the lessons that can come from this? Isaac and Angie Tolpin give you some key scriptures, powerful insights, and warnings that will encourage you but also help you navigate these important parenting conversations. Normal Christian parenting is largely failing so it’s vital to be introspective, to take a fresh look at your parenting approach, and to realize that if society has changed, we need to level up our intentionality in our homes. Develop the art of giving biblical perspectives on hard things happening in the world. There’s no time to spare to truly disciple our children in the Bible, Spiritual warfare, and how to glorify God with our lives without fear in the world. Let’s be like Charlie and equip our children to be as well!Be sure to subscribe to the show to be notified every Tuesday of a new episode!Companies we love who sponsor the show:Get Abbie Halberstadt’s (M is For Mama) new book “You Bet Your Stretch Marks” CTC Math https://ctcmath.com/REDEEM™ HealthShare from Samaritan Ministries: https://redeemhealthshare.org/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/courageous-parenting/donations
