When your parents divorce, you almost always miss out on the mentorship and guidance that parents are meant to give their children about life, relationships, and so much more.  Without that kind of guidance, you feel lost, alone, and stuck - unsure what to do about it all.But that's where a mentor can be incredibly helpful and even healing.In this episode, we dive into the power of mentorship: why it's essential if you grew up without one or both parents, how to find the right mentor, and how those relationships can heal what was broken.If you've ever wished someone older and wiser could show you the way, or wondered how to stop repeating your family's dysfunction, this episode is for you.Visit Brandon's websiteGet the Book or FREE chapters: It's Not Your FaultWatch the Documentary: KennyWatch the Trailer: Kenny (3:31 min)Listen to Episode #036: Healthy Relationships Are Impossible Without BoundariesListen to Episode #058: Forgiveness: The Secret to Healing and Freedom | Fr.

What happens when “biblical parenting” becomes more about control than compassion? In this episode, I talk with Kelsey McGinnis and Marissa Burt, authors of The Myth of Good Christian Parenting, about the rise of evangelical parenting culture, from James Dobson and Bill Gothard to today's influencer economy, and how these ideas have shaped generations of families. Together, we explore how fear and hierarchy took root in the church's imagination, why so many parents feel trapped by formulas and shame, and what it might look like to recover freedom, grace, and mutuality in our homes. This is a conversation about rethinking authority, rediscovering gentleness, and learning to see our children as people to love, not projects to manage.Marissa Franks Burt (MTh, Columbia International University) is a novelist, editor, teacher, and cohost of the At Home with the Lectionary podcast.

This segment dives deep into the essence of alignment—the moment when your inner world finally matches the life you're trying to build on the outside. Adam Ksix unpacks what it truly means to live from a place of alignment rather than control, showing that real transformation doesn't come from striving harder, but from returning to who you already are.Through this reflective conversation, he explores how our thoughts, emotions, and actions often pull in different directions, creating internal conflict and disconnection. Yet, when we slow down and tune in, we begin to notice that alignment is not something to chase—it's something to remember. It's the peace that appears when we stop forcing outcomes and start allowing truth to guide us.This clip invites you to rethink how you approach growth and purpose. Instead of seeing alignment as a final destination, Adam re frames it as a living state of awareness—one that flows, shifts, and evolves as you do. It's about learning to move with life, not against it.If you've ever felt out of sync or questioned whether you're on the right path, this conversation will help you recognize the subtle moments when everything within you clicks into place—and how to stay anchored there, no matter what's happening around you.Support the showAdam Kasix works with intelligent, purpose-driven professionals who have achieved some success but are seeking refined clarity, emotional mastery and the cool confidence that comes with progressing in your purpose. Through his inspired frameworks–paired with radical awareness training–Adam helps them see the patterns they've been conditioned with.

Through frequent moves, a long deployment, and so many home renovations, mom created a life centered on faith, love, and togetherness.

Faith, Fatherhood, and Leading at Home with Intention In one of the most heartfelt episodes we've ever recorded, Chris and Melissa sit down with Bubba Page — a single dad of eight, serial entrepreneur, and unapologetic follower of Jesus — to explore what it really means to lead your family with faith, intentionality, and purpose. Bubba's story is raw, real, and deeply inspiring. From building and selling companies to walking through heartbreak and healing, he's discovered that success means nothing without faith and family at the center. He shares how his relationship with God transformed after a season of humility and loss, and how daily spiritual practices — from prayer and scripture study to worship and journaling — helped him discover God's will for his life. This conversation goes far beyond business. Bubba opens up about spiritual warfare, discerning the “three voices” we all hear, and how to cultivate strength and clarity to follow God's plan. He also shares how we can turn our deepest trials into the very source of our light — a message every parent and leader needs to hear. As a father, Bubba's mission is crystal clear: to raise warriors for Christ and equip parents with practical tools to lead their homes. He's now building the Fatherhood Movement and writing The Father Operating System, a guide that applies business principles — like KPIs, meetings, and mission statements — to family life. The goal? More intention, more connection, and more joy. If you've ever wondered how to bring more purpose, structure, and spiritual depth into your home, this episode will leave you inspired, challenged, and ready to step into your calling as a parent and leader.

From a young age, Jenifer Massie was immersed in a culture of service, beginning with volunteering in her school's “gramps and grannies” program and extending to caring for her own family members. Her caregiving roles evolved over the years, from supporting her grandmother and great aunt to becoming a “sandwich caregiver” while raising her own children. Jenifer's approach to caregiving was shaped by her family's tradition of stepping in where needed, often without formal discussions, and by her deep sense of gratitude and responsibility.A pivotal chapter in Jenifer's journey came when her oldest brother was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer, and she became part of his care team. This period was marked by emotional vulnerability, profound family connection, and ultimately, her own diagnosis with colorectal cancer just weeks before her brother's passing. Experiencing both sides of care—giving and receiving—transformed Jenifer's perspective, teaching her the importance of self-advocacy, setting boundaries, and embracing vulnerability.

In today's episode, we're talking about how foster care has impacted our families: the hard parts and the really good ones. Foster care is mission work, and like anything meaningful, it comes with its share of challenges and rewards. If you're curious about foster care or are already in it and looking for people who truly understand, this conversation is for you. We share how this journey has stretched us, grown our faith, and pushed us to rely on God more than ever. It's been refining in all the best (and hardest) ways. We believe we're all called to make disciples, and sometimes that looks like opening our homes to kids who need love and stability. Foster care has helped us develop tools we didn't know we needed, and we've seen so much growth, both in ourselves and our families. At the end of the day, God is good no matter what, and this experience has taught us to trust Him in deeper ways. Episode Highlights:  How Foster Care has Impacted Our Families Foster Care is Mission Work  The Bigness of God Hard Conversations with Bio Kids   Find More on Hope Bridge: Visit Our Website  Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Facebook  Foster Our Community Instagram  Register for the FASD Workshop

Join Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Rolf Jacobson as they dive deep into the lectionary readings for the 10th Sunday after Pentecost (August 17, 2025). In this episode, they explore the challenging theme of division that Jesus brings, not as his goal, but as an inevitable result of following his way. Our hosts unpack Luke 12:49-56, where Jesus speaks of bringing fire rather than peace, and discuss how this passage connects to the realities of following Christ today. Whether you're a preacher preparing for Sunday or someone seeking a deeper understanding of these challenging texts, this conversation offers thoughtful biblical interpretation and practical wisdom for navigating the complexities of faith in community.

“Last words I ever told him was I love him and keep fighting. So that's what I'm gonna live by from now on, just keep fighting, keep going no matter the circumstance but just keep on going.” Jack Bech We try to find the right words to capture the impact and emotion of this episode, but this is one, that when you listen to it, you'll understand how rare and special of a human Jack Bech is and why any NFL team who drafts him, will instantly be better for it. Whether you're an athlete, a dreamer, or someone rebuilding from a loss, this episode is a reminder: the pivot isn't the end — it's where growth begins. Ryan, Channing and Fred visit Lafayette, Louisiana, home of the Bech family and sit with Jack at the place his football career all started, St. Thomas More Catholic High School. Recent tragedy struck his family as his older brother, Tiger, was a victim of the Bourbon Street New Year's Eve attack. Jack opens up on the horrific moments of that night as he reflects on losing his brother who he idolized in every aspect from football to his faith to being his best friend since he was a young boy. In a special moment, he reveals something that he hasn't publicly shared yet about losing his brother and why now is the right time to share, With Jack projected to be a day two pick in the upcoming NFL draft, he shares that NFL teams are getting a two-for-one special as he is no longer just playing for him, but his brother too. As a wide receiver, his football journey has been anything but linear. From LSU to TCU, Jack opens up about the highs, the heartbreaks, and the headspace it takes to bet on yourself when the world starts doubting you. Coming off a dominant final year in college ball, Jack shares how he's turned grief into grit—navigating injuries, transfers, and the pressure of expectations while holding tight to his love for the game. His family's heartbreak is added-fuel towards fulfilling his dream of a long successful NFL career and names a few star wide receivers he admires and models his game after from Cooper Kupp to LSU friends Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson and Malik Nabers, taking pieces of their style to craft into his own. Jack is ready for wherever his journey takes him next and his guardian angel will be there to join him in any NFL city he calls home, and if you don't believe him, just watch. The Pivot Family will be rooting for Jack and his family this weekend as his football fate is determined. Don't forget to subscribe and comment below. Learn more about your ad choices.
