Podcasts about family meetings

This week on the Family Meeting, Krista was joined by Kevin Briggins and Dr. Jeff Degner from Cornerstone University. We reacted to a recent social media post on the CFBU Facebook page where commenters were talking about blending Christianity with socialism—can they coexist? Dr. Degner, an expert in economics from the Mises Institute, unpacks a few of the theological and economic flaws of socialism, drawing from Genesis 1:27-28 to highlight its conflict with biblical principles like private property and human nature. We also talked about the current administration's tariff policies, minimum wage and inflation from a biblical point of view.

A problem plagues modern healthcare: machines are setting the standard of care, and human clinicians are struggling to keep up. Artificial intelligence will only make this worse. The technical mindset fragments patient care and draws us further from shalom even as pursue surrogate markers that are meant to restore health. How can we, as Christian clinicians, respond wisely and well to this problem? One response is found in the story of the God's people in the Bible, specifically in the story of Israel's adoption into the family of God. The Theology, Medicine, and Culture Initiative (TMC) at Duke Divinity School and the Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities & History of Medicine at Duke co-sponsored this seminar entitled "The Uncanny Valley: Remaining Human in Healthcare" on November 8, 2024 with Dr. Joshua Briscoe. Joshua Briscoe, MD is a Hospice and Palliative Care physician at the Durham VA Medical Center where he also serves on the Ethics Consultation Service. He's an assistant professor of Medicine and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Duke University School of Medicine, and faculty associate with the Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities and History of Medicine. He writes about issues at the intersection of medicine, technology, and moral formation in a monthly newsletter entitled Notes from a Family Meeting.

Hey Family Brand! It's Melissa here, and if you've ever tried to hold a family meeting that ended in chaos, eye-rolls, or zero follow-through… this episode is for you. We're diving into a topic that might sound boring but can truly transform your family culture: family meetings. Trust me, I get it—most of us didn't grow up doing these, and if we did, we may not have the best memories of them. But what if family meetings didn't suck? What if they were actually helpful, hopeful, and maybe even a little fun? This idea hit me recently while working with a coaching client who was really passionate about optimizing his family meetings. That conversation reminded me that even if we've covered this before, it's something worth revisiting—and often. When life feels a little out of sync or chaotic, a family meeting rhythm can be the very thing that brings us back to center. In this episode, Chris and I talk about how meetings are often a reflection of how well (or how poorly) things are running in any group—your family included. We share how being intentional with simple, consistent family meetings has helped us stay connected and work as a team. You'll also hear why “too many meetings” or “not enough meetings” can both be problems—and how to strike the balance. We get real about the resistance you might face—yes, especially from your kids—and how you can gently but firmly lead with vision. I also share our free Family Meeting Guide, which includes videos and a printable PDF to walk you through everything step-by-step. You can grab it at familybrand.com/meeting. And don't worry—we're not saying you need to overhaul your entire schedule overnight. Start small. Even a quick weekly check-in over dinner (with snacks, of course!) can work wonders. At the end of the day, we want to help you build a home where your family communicates, feels seen, and works toward shared goals. Family meetings might not be flashy, but they're powerful. Let's make them work.

What does the arrival of South African refugees in the US mean for Christians? In this Family Meeting, Monique and Kevin dive into the Trump administration's decision to grant refugee status to 59 white Afrikaners while suspending other refugee programs. We explore the pros and cons of this policy, the land appropriation issues in South Africa, and the biblical question of partiality in justice. We also tackle "black fatigue"—the growing exhaustion with ratchet culture, violence, and racial grievance narratives in the black community. Have "ratchet" black Americans squandered the goodwill of their neighbors? How should Christians respond? Join us for this exciting discussion on race, culture, and justice.
