On this Freedom Friday, we concluded our weekly theme of “Family Relationships” with discussions about how data can help improve marriage and intimacy, as well as how the radical transformation of others can impact our walk with Christ. We turned to Acts 16, where we saw how Paul and Silas witnessed for Christ while in prison in Philippi, and how it transformed the life of a prison guard. We also heard a radical transformation story about the late Hulk Hogan, former professional wrestler, and how he turned to Christ and publicly declared it before his passing. We then turned to the phone lines to hear a freedom story from one of our listeners, Prestina, and we asked her, “Who in your family or circle of friends had such a radical transformation that caused you to repent and turn to God completely?” Then one of our special guests, Shaunti Feldhahn, shared data that can help married couples understand their partners more. Shaunti is a best-selling author, podcaster, blogger, and popular speaker. She received a graduate degree from Harvard University. She was formerly an analyst on Wall Street, so she applies her analytical skills when investigating truths in the home and the workplace. She has also written groundbreaking research books such as “For Women Only” and “For Men Only.” Then Luke Smallbone from For KING + COUNTRY, a musical duo consisting of two brothers, Luke and Joel Smallbone, joined us to discuss the importance of intimacy with God in private. He also shared with us information about the musical duo's upcoming Little Drummer Boy Christmas tour. For more information about For KING + COUNTRY and the tour, visit their website.

The Faith Talk Between Father and Son

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 23, 2025 60:06

Have you ever asked yourself? When's the last time I really asked my kids what they think about God or faith? How can I start the journey of exploring faith side-by-side with my kids? What are the ways I can create more open, judgment-free conversations with my children? For many dads, the idea of being a “spiritual leader” in the home feels intimidating, even paralyzing. Maybe you grew up with rigid, guilt-driven religious expectations or maybe you just don't feel like you know enough. The truth? None of that has to stop you. In fact, the most meaningful spiritual leadership happens when we admit we don't have it all figured out—and decide to walk the road of faith together with our kids. My Favorite Protein Level 1 Bars Creatine Overdrive Hydration Sticks Larry and Ethan get real about their own experiences growing up Catholic—the guilt, confusion, and the struggles to make sense of complex religious teachings. They share how, as adults, they've navigated those challenges together and discovered the power of learning side by side, embracing faith as a shared father-son journey rather than a top-down lecture. You'll hear their honest talk about breaking down the barriers of feeling “not good enough” to lead spiritually, why vulnerability can actually be your greatest asset in these moments, and practical ideas for connecting with your children around faith without fear or overwhelm. Plus, they touch on the importance of building a personal relationship with God—outside of simply following rituals or attending church—and how even small daily steps, like reading a chapter from the Book of John together, can transform your family's spiritual life. So if you're a dad who's ever felt uncertain about how to talk faith with your kids, or if you're looking for encouragement to deepen those connections, this episode is for you. Let's step into the arena together, lead and learn as a team, and discover what it truly means to create a legacy of intentional, faith-filled fatherhood. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube Today, we dig into: You don't have to “have it all figured out” to lead spiritually: Many dads, including myself, feel intimidated by spiritual conversations because we think we need to be experts. The truth? The best leadership often comes from learning side-by-side with our kids. Make it a journey, not a lecture: Spiritual leadership isn't about preaching from a pedestal. It's about reading, questioning, and growing together—sometimes stumbling, sometimes leading, always learning. Relationship over ritual: The most powerful faith lessons come from genuine connection and conversation—not just attending church or following rituals. Building a relationship with God, and helping our kids do the same, is what matters most. This episode is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and practical advice for fathers who want to step up as spiritual leaders without the fear of not being “good enough.” Here's what research and observation highlight about religious and spiritual conversations within families: Studies found that 58% of men admit to avoiding religious or spiritual conversations for fear of being unprepared or judged. Research found that 67% of adolescents reported feeling more connected to parents when both were engaged in joint learning or spiritual exploration. Research indicates that 73% of practicing Christian parents say it's essential to teach their children about the faith, yet only 35% report regularly engaging in spiritual conversations at home. thedadedge.com/alliance https://1stphorm.com/?a_aid=dadedge

Building Trust Through Honest S*x Talks With Your Kids ft. Jim Burns

Have you ever asked yourself: Do I create a safe, judgment-free environment where my kids can come to me with their awkward questions? Am I making time for one-on-one connection with my kids, so these tough conversations can happen more naturally? What steps am I taking to protect my kids from online exposure, and is there more I could be doing? Navigating “the talk” about sex and sexuality is a daunting task for dads everywhere — and it never seems to get less awkward. Today, Larry sits down with renowned author and communicator Jim Burns to break down how dads can lead the way in guiding their kids through conversations about sex, porn, and growing up in a digital world. Larry and Jim dive deep into the realities of "the talk"—why it never quite stops feeling awkward, and why that awkwardness can actually be a gateway to genuine connection with our kids. They explore why our own discomfort shouldn't keep us from being the voices our children trust to learn about relationships, intimacy, and sexual integrity—especially when the internet and social media are more than willing to fill in any gaps we leave. You'll hear practical strategies for navigating these conversations, including how to replace a single, intimidating “talk” with hundreds of approachable one-minute chats, ways to demystify topics like pornography and online safety, and tips for tailoring discussions to your child's unique personality. If you want to raise confident kids who learn about sex and relationships from you—and not from TikTok or YouTube—this episode is packed with clarity, courage, and actionable advice to help you step up, again and again, in those crucial parenting moments. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Embracing Awkwardness: Jim Burns shares that awkward isn't the enemy—it's actually a doorway to true connection. If your head sweats or you stammer, congratulations, you're doing it right! From One “Talk” to 100 Conversations: The secret? Don't stress the big performance. Focus on hundreds of one-minute check-ins and question invites over time. Navigating Porn & Tech: In today's world, our kids' go-to source for sex education is often the internet. Jim breaks down how early and often these conversations need to happen—and why holding off on full-on smartphones can give your kids a real edge. What If You're Still Sorting Out Your Own Stuff: If you're struggling with sexual integrity or have a messy past, don't sit silently. Your honesty and process can become a powerful guide for your children. This episode reminds us that showing up with intention, compassion, and consistency is what really matters. Here's what research and observation highlight about parental involvement in sex education: Studies show that 70% of teens report accidentally or intentionally encountering online pornography, Studies show that ongoing, bite-sized conversations are up to 50% more effective in retention and behavioral outcomes compared to single, formal discussions. Studies found that teens who receive sex education from their parents are 24% less likely to engage in risky sexual behavior compared to those who learn primarily from peers or media https://thedadedge.com/537 thedadedge.com/bark thedadedge.com/alliance https://homeword.com/ @drjimburns @homewordcenter
