As our children grow and mature, our anxieties as parents often grow right alongside them. How do we navigate concerns about activities, dating, cell phones, social media, and questions about faith? 
In this conversation recorded at TGCW25, Mike and Melissa Kruger consider biblical principles that serve as the foundation for the practical decisions we make as parents, while anchoring our hopes and expectations on Christ rather than our child’s behavior or our perfection as parents.

Panelists are Wendy Alsup, Blair Linne, and Sandy Willson and Megan Hill moderates.

“Marriage is a window, not a wall.” 
In this talk recorded at TGC25, Stephen Witmer explains how Ephesians 5 presents a joyful, liberating, and distinctively Christian approach to marriage. We see that God’s instructions aren’t arbitrary or sexist. We’re freed to cherish marriage without totalizing it—neither holding it too loosely nor valuing it too highly. And we’re given grounds for perseverance in marital challenges and hope in marital disappointments.

Various stories guide and even dictate how we navigate the world. We’ve all heard some of these stories’ slogans: “you do you,” “love is love,” or “follow your heart.” These “cultural narratives” are woven deep into the fabric of our lives, from popular media to everyday conversations. In this talk recorded at TGC25, Michael Keller explains how understanding and critiquing these stories helps us communicate the gospel in comprehensible and compelling ways.

Codependency, dependent personality disorder, toxic relationships—these are popular terms in counseling and psychology, but as Christians, we want to understand how they fit with or overlap the sin patterns we read about in Scripture. In this talk, recorded at TGCW24 Ellen Mary Dykas shows how God’s Word addresses common-to-man temptations. Dykas talks about how to diagnose relational idolatry in our lives, bring real help and healing to those around us, and take steps of faith toward loving people without craving or worshipping them.
