What if family devotions didn't have to be perfect to be effective? Adam and Cassie sit down with Carl Laferton to talk about what family Bible time really looks like in a normal home—and why the ordinary, imperfect moments are often where God is doing the most.

Carl offers a refreshing, honest take:Family devotions are necessary—but they're not everything. They're one part of a much bigger picture: a home where the gospel shows up in everyday life. “Family Bible time is not sufficient for discipleship… but it is a necessary foundation.” Let this Mother's Day be a reminder that she deserves care, too.

Join me as I welcome back Israel Wayne to the Family Discipleship Podcast! Israel discusses the ineffectiveness of institutional solutions for church and family issues, advocating instead for relational discipleship modeled after Jesus’ example. We need far more intergenerational interaction in our churches; and we need parents to take full responsibility for their children's spiritual education, rather than outsourcing it to institutions.

Today’s conversation is with Gena Suarez, founder of The Old Schoolhouse magazine. Gena shares the story of her own family’s homeschooling journey, insights on how the homeschool landscape has changed, and thoughts on the importance of discipleship – not just academics – in the home education model. Paul and Gena Suarez reside in eastern Tennessee with their family and have homeschooled their seven children since 1990. They embrace and promote the Biblical philosophy that “homeschooling” is not so much about schooling and education as it is about discipleship – bringing up our children “in the nurture and admonition of the Lord” (Eph. 6:4). The Suarez family wishes to share this vision around the world as they publish the trade magazine for homeschool families, The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine.
