On today’s episode, we are talking about some common perceptions of the teen years but what this season can be looking through the lens of the gospel.  How we can walk alongside and shepherd our children’s hearts in these years?  How can we help them navigate this transition into adulthood?  If more is “caught than taught,” how can we strive to live out an “authentic faith”, an overflow of who Jesus is to us, in front of them?  What about those of us who feel we are too far into these years and have lost too much ground…is there any hope?

How we can recognize opportunities to present and keep the gospel in front of our children…where do we start in even knowing how to do this? We are also talking about hard days: how do we walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, to not only parent but to do it with His joy and ability? How can we take the truths of scripture and fully stand upon God’s promises of not leaving us and finishing the work he has begun in us? Please join us as laughter, transparency, but most of all gospel-hope and truths are woven throughout this episode!

In this episode, John and Alicia recall God's redemption and restoration of dormant hopes and dreams as they talk about what life looks like now. They passionately share a word to younger couples (John specifically addresses the men) from their own journey. We close the conversation talking about the hard but necessary road of forgiveness and what God is currently teaching them.
