Podcasts about family faith

What happens to faith when a nation gets comfortable? Bill and Travis sit down with Mark Oxer, author of This Is the Way, who moved his family to the Netherlands and discovered a hard truth: comfort doesn't strengthen faith — it drifts it. In this episode, Mark unpacks the difference between builders, maintainers, and squanderers, why every generation is one decision away from losing what the last one fought for, and why a father's faith is the single biggest predictor of whether his kids stay in the church. This one will challenge you to stop coasting and start building — in your home, your community, and wherever God has planted you. Wake Up. Gear Up. Come Alive.

In this episode of Over the Falls Podcast, Dave and Dukes are joined by Layla Isis Manga, owner of Alexander's Estate Agents in Aberystwyth, for a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation about life, family, business and the community she calls home.Layla takes us back to her upbringing and family life, before sharing her journey into business and the world of property and estate agency in Aberystwyth. We talk about the challenges and rewards of running a local business, her relationship with Aberystwyth and her thoughts on the area.But this conversation goes far beyond property. We discuss parenting and the risks of smartphones and social media for children, religion and faith, family values, modern life and some of the issues facing parents today.And, in true Over the Falls fashion, we disappear down more than a few unexpected rabbit holes along the way!It's an insightful, honest and thoroughly enjoyable conversation with someone who has plenty to say about business, parenting, property, faith and life in Aberystwyth.

Caring for a parent with Alzheimer's can bring love, frustration, grief, exhaustion, laughter, and unexpected moments of beauty—sometimes all in the same day.In this deeply personal episode of the Wise Divine Women Podcast, Dana Irvine continues her conversation with author Sarah Vosburgh about navigating her mother's Alzheimer's journey, the difficult decisions surrounding independence and driving, and the emotional realities families face as a loved one's cognitive abilities change.Sarah shares a powerful example of meeting her mother where she was rather than forcing a confrontation. Her mother repeatedly insisted, “No one is taking my keys.” Instead of removing the keys and creating distress, Sarah's family recognized that the keys represented independence and security. They quietly disabled the vehicle while allowing her mother to keep the keys exactly where she expected them to be.The conversation also explores the importance of community support. Friends, church members, Sarah's husband, and her children all played meaningful roles during the caregiving journey.One particularly beautiful connection remained through music. Sarah's mother continued singing in her church choir until shortly before entering memory care. Even when she could no longer properly follow the sheet music, the songs remained within her. Sarah recalls singing Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus beside her mother—one of those precious moments that became a memory to hold onto.Sarah also speaks candidly about the complicated relationship she shared with her mother, the expectations often placed on women as caregivers, the exhaustion that can come from caring too long without enough support, and the criticism caregivers sometimes receive from people who only see part of the situation.Through it all, Sarah reminds us that caregiving is rarely simple. There are often two sides to every decision, and compassion is needed not only for the person receiving care but also for the person providing it.A Message for CaregiversYou may not always be able to change what is happening, but you can look for opportunities to preserve dignity, connection and love.Sometimes caregiving means solving a problem differently.Sometimes it means accepting help.And sometimes it simply means remembering the song, sharing the coffee, sitting beside someone you love, and recognizing that these seemingly ordinary moments may someday become extraordinary memories.Connect with SarahLearn more about Sarah, her book, upcoming events and book club opportunities at SarahVosburgh.com.Sarah's book launches April 22, followed by an eight-city tour. She also shares that an audiobook version includes the voices of both of her daughters, creating an especially personal telling of their family story.Connect with DanaFor support with hormones, metabolism, breast health, digestion, and whole-body wellness, visit DanaIrvine.com and book a Health Clarity Call.Subscribe to the Wise Divine Women Podcast, leave a review, and share this episode with someone navigating Alzheimer's, dementia, caregiving, aging parents, or the complicated journey of loving someone through change.Alzheimer's caregiving, dementia caregiving, caring for aging parents, Alzheimer's family support, memory care, caregiver burnout, women caregivers, dementia and driving, Alzheimer's and music, faith and caregiving, caregiving support, caring for a mother with Alzheimer's,

Tyler Isaac Martin, Ophira Eisenberg and Dylan Hartwell joined me for a fun and thoughtful conversation about Season 2 of the breakout indie LGBTQ+ comedy-drama Don't Suck.Tyler, the series' creator, writer, director, editor, producer and star, shared how growing up in White Settlement, Texas, in a family of ministers helped shape both his life and his creativity. He opened up about finding his sacred space in the theater, coming out at 16, his complicated relationship with religion and how a biblical literature class years later transformed his perspective and ultimately helped change his relationship with his parents.We talked about the inspiration behind Don't Suck, Tyler's commitment to authentic queer storytelling and the decision to make Season 2 bigger and more ambitious. Tyler discussed expanding the production, assembling a cast that included Jeff Hiller, and even writing and filming an original musical.Ophira, who played Tyler's mother Cathy, shared what drew her to the role and how she approached this family and its complicated dynamics. Dylan talked about playing Tyler's straight brother Noah, their relationship as brothers and the idea at the heart of the season that loving someone can sometimes be very different from pushing them.We also discussed representation, faith, family, creativity and the response Tyler has received from viewers. And with Season 2 building toward its grand finale, Tyler, Ophira and Dylan teased what audiences could expect—including more of the musical, more Ophira and more Jeff Hiller.

Pastor Ken Ortize continues in the book of Genesis. This multipart series dives into the interpretation and the comprehension of its passages. Today we are in Genesis 10:6-12.

Send us Fan MailA saint formed in the pressure of war, plague, and spiritual drift has a lot to say to a culture that feels exhausted and scattered. We walk through the life of St. John Eudes, a 17th-century Catholic priest who refuses to let faith stay theoretical. His answer to darkness is simple and demanding: return to Jesus in the sacraments, let mercy reshape your choices, and build a home where prayer is normal.We dig into why St. John Eudes becomes one of the great voices for devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. For him, these devotions are not “extras” for a few, but a clear path to holiness for ordinary people. We talk about how meditating on the hearts of Jesus and Mary trains our own hearts toward humility, purity, compassion, and real conversion, especially in family life.From there, we connect his teaching to the center of Catholic spirituality: the Holy Eucharist. St. John Eudes calls the Blessed Sacrament the Sacrament of Love and urges frequent, reverent Holy Communion, real preparation, and grateful thanksgiving. We also highlight confession and God's mercy as the steady reset that heals what sin and stress do to a soul, then turn to prayer as a living union with Jesus and Mary that can make every Catholic home a “little church.”If you want a deeper Catholic faith without pretending life is easy, this conversation offers a map you can actually follow.

How can you raise kids who follow Christ in a world that constantly pulls them in other directions, and what does it look like to parent with grace, wisdom, and a long-term perspective? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Sara sit down with Bible teacher and author Jen Wilkin to talk about the challenges and joys of raising kids who are formed by the gospel rather than the culture around them. Drawing from decades of parenting experience, Jen shares practical wisdom for navigating everything from discipline and boundaries to peer pressure and meaningful family conversations. Together, they discuss the importance of viewing children as image bearers, balancing rules and relationship, and keeping the long view in mind when making everyday parenting decisions. Jen offers encouraging reminders for parents in every stage, helping them trade performance-driven pressure for a deeper trust in God's faithful work in both their children and themselves. Whether you're in the toddler years, navigating the teen years, or somewhere in between, this conversation will encourage you to take a deep breath, hold on to what matters most, and trust that God's grace is at work in your parenting journey.

Today on Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I'm addressing the divorcee community and I'm going straight to the Bible.Why does God say He hates divorce? What does Scripture actually teach about marriage, covenant, divorce, and the responsibilities of husbands and wives? And why have divorce rates become so incredibly high, particularly as wives increasingly initiate divorce over reasons that, from a biblical perspective, are trivial, selfish, or completely unbiblical?This is not a message designed to just shame people who have experienced divorce. It is a challenge to the culture that has normalized abandoning marriage whenever things become difficult, inconvenient, or uncomfortable. We need to be willing to distinguish between legitimate biblical grounds for divorce and the endless list of modern excuses we've created to justify walking away from a sacred covenant.And that's not all we're discussing.I'm also talking about Donald Trump's continued failures, the gap between political promises and political reality, and why Americans should be questioning the decisions being made in our name.Plus, we're talking about the Iran War and why I believe this conflict is unnecessary and why Americans should be asking whether another foreign war actually serves the interests of the United States.Marriage. Divorce. Biblical truth. Trump. Iran. War. Political accountability.I'm saying what I believe needs to be said, even when it isn't popular (as usual).--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with John McCormick, senior editor at The Dispatch, for a thoughtful conversation on journalism, politics, media, history, and the values that matter most. John reflects on his path from conservative college columnist to reporting for National Review, The Weekly Standard, and The Dispatch. He shares why political debate has become less productive, how social media has changed public discourse, and why he still believes respectful disagreements are essential to a healthy democracy. The conversation also explores the future of American politics, the importance of history, balancing career ambitions with family life, and why faith and family remain the foundation of a meaningful life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The "Queen of Christian Pop" AMY GRANT is so transparent you'll want to kick back, lean in and listen as she talks about life, love, overcoming obstacles and her blended family with Vince Gill like never before. She even gets choked up so bring tissues! Plus, we went back a decade into our archives for a moment KeepTheFaith made happen and nobody else got to capture: the first time Amy ever met a rising star named Lauren Daigle. KeepTheFaith put the two of them in a room together, hit record, and let Amy mentor a wide-eyed young Lauren on navigating her prophetic success — years before the world knew her name. Hosted by 9-time Emmy winner David Sams and life coach to the stars Tim Storey. Since this conversation first aired, Amy's own story has kept unfolding. Amy's marriage to Vince Gill and the blended family she describes here remain the bedrock of her life, she survived a serious bike accident and open-heart surgery, and channeled that recovery into her first album of original songs in 13 years, The Me That Remains, released this May. She's back on the road through 2026 — and the wisdom she gives Lauren in this episode sounds a lot like the wisdom she's still living by today. This episode first aired December 2018.

How can something as simple as play help your child grow in their faith, and how can you make play a natural part of your family's everyday rhythms? In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Sara sit down with Brittany Compton to talk about the powerful purpose behind play. While play often comes naturally to kids, Brittany reminds parents that it is far more than just fun – it's how kids learn, grow, process emotions, build resilience, and connect with the world God made. Together, they discuss how simple, everyday moments of play can strengthen the parent-child bond, create space for meaningful faith conversations, and remind kids that they are loved, valued, and delighted in. From bath time and dinner games to backyard adventures and board games, this conversation is full of practical encouragement for parents who want to be more present and intentional. Whether play comes easily to you or feels like something you have to work at, this episode will encourage you to start small, have fun, and never underestimate what God can do through a few intentional moments with your kids.

“You carry this brilliance in you—this is something that's in your DNA.” In this moving Detroit is Different conversation, Tiara Jones, owner of Black Beautiful & Brilliant, shares how love, grief, family, and purpose shaped her decision to continue the brand created by her late husband. Tiara traces her roots from Inkster to Alabama, connecting her family's Great Migration story and the trauma of racial violence to the strength that generations carried into Metro Detroit. She reflects on meeting her husband during the COVID era, building a life together, and choosing to preserve his vision after his passing: “I'm going to pick this brand back up, because it can be bigger than what he envisioned.” More than clothing or a slogan, Black Beautiful & Brilliant becomes a lesson for their son and daughter about “what love looks like,” commitment, loyalty, and cultural pride. Tiara also speaks honestly about grief, finding her voice, supporting Black women, and reminding the community that brilliance is not something granted from outside—it already lives within us. This episode connects the past to the future by showing how ancestral survival, neighborhood memory, Black enterprise, and family legacy can become tools for healing, ownership, and collective possibility.

What are students and children actually learning from us? It may not be our sermons. It may not be our advice. It might simply be the way we live. In this episode of Youth Worker On Fire, Doug Edwards shares a simple but powerful story from dinner with his grandchildren and a reminder that faith is often caught before it is taught. After inviting his family to pray over a meal, Doug watched something unexpected happen: His grandchildren stepped forward and wanted to pray. Not because they were asked. Not because they were prepared. But because prayer had become natural to them. That moment became a powerful reminder: Students and children are watching us more closely than we realize.
