Podcasts about family teams

How do you care for a new mother? How do you care for a family? If you're a citizen of the West, the answer is basically: you don't. There's no recognition, value, or care for family anymore. Yet there is an ancient way that most of humanity for most of time has followed that helps mothers and families thrive as multi-generational teams. That way is still kept in places like Uganda, which Jeremy and April discuss today. Can you even imagine this kind of support? And if you didn't receive this support, don't worry...you get to be the one to choose to build this type of family downstream, and the work starts today as you build relationship with your children. Stand at the crossroads and choose the ancient path.

The natural, Biblical progression for a woman's life is to go from Maiden to Mother to Matriarch. Each of these are seasons, and they're glorious in the way God guides us through them. But...our culture HATES that last step. Nobody is aspiring to grandmotherhood. The idea seems to be to go BACK to maiden after motherhood. In this episode, Jeremy and April break down Michelle Obama's recent comments, the destructive nature of "therapy culture", and how it's impacting the way young women are interacting with religion. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:53 Michelle Obama vs. Matriarchy 7:37 A wife and grandmother's perspective 16:14 Becoming one with your spouse 24:04 First time in history young women are less religious than young men 33:23 How young moms can resist the worldly temptation to put themselves first 39:12 The modern self-obsessed culture is the opposite of Jesus' teaching Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: 1000 Households Discipleship: https://1kh.org Michelle Obama Clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axWovz0V_Kw Modern Wisdom Podcast Clip: https://www.instagram.com/p/DIUKUFrN3u6/ Family Revision by Jeremy Pryor: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0578526123/ --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

This is the one thing I wish I knew earlier in my fatherhood journey. Fathers, especially, have a HUGE amount of influence with helping their kids achieve mastery over skills and parts of life that they might not otherwise accomplish without dad's influence. In this episode, we share 3 extreme examples of fathers casting huge visions and helping their children become world-class. We're not saying to go to these extremes, but it shows the power of high-support / high-expectation fatherhood.

Listening to this episode and then taking some action could be the biggest peace-giving thing you've done in years. Training your children well is often the difference between "we're done having kids" and "every child we add is a joy and blessing". Grant and Kelly Stine completely changed the culture of their home in a very short amount of time by going all-in on training their children. They're our community coaches in the Accelerator this month, and give us some incredible, practical tools and stories in this episode.

Most parents don't know you can (and should) train your kids. Our Western mindset has most people believe that how kids turn out is mostly just due to their personality. This is absolutely incorrect and is KILLING family cultures and peace in homes. Today we're giving you some game-changing mindset shifts and some super practical ways to train your kids - for your benefit AND their benefit. --- FREE DOWNLOAD: 12 Tips for Training Your Kids (with Scripture): http://familyteams.com/train --- On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:51 Our Daughter's Feminine Rhythm on Tuesdays 3:29 How To Build A Family Business So You Can Truly Live As A Family Team 10:58 Training Your Kids 13:24 Develop A Training System 25:50 Start Early 34:00 Get The Playbook, Join The Accelerator 35:05 Crafting Training Routines Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Family Inc: https://courses.familyteams.com/familyinc Family Teams Accelerator: https://familyteams.com/accelerator Top 12 Tips for Training Your Kids: http://familyteams.com/train --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

This feminine superpower is designed to build relational connectivity and love in big, multigenerational families, but is often misunderstood and completely ignored in the modern world. Jeremy discusses the ideal use for this in a large family and how it is such a blessing to husbands and the entire family, but also shows why it's so maligned these days. He reacts to a couple videos, one from Jonathan Haidt, and another of Jordan Peterson to show just how important it is for wives and mothers to cultivate this amazing superpower.

The decision to have kids - or, more commonly these days, to NOT have kids - isn't just some random decision your kids make. It comes after years of seeing how you treat fatherhood and motherhood. Whether you value it. Whether you've taught them the importance of their gender and how God intentionally created them that gender, and that He loves certain things about that gender. If you value family, having kids, and obeying God, then you need to actually train your kids to WANT to become parents.

One of our favorite ways to disciple our kids - while having a ton of fun - is to celebrate the 7 Biblical feasts. They're not just for Jewish people...they all prefigure Christ, and are an amazing opportunity to talk about the Gospel to our kids on an annual rhythm. This month's focus in the Family Teams Accelerator is how to lean into the 4 Spring Festivals, and in this episode we give you a sneak peak into some of our tips and rhythms, as well as what to expect as you begin to celebrate things like Passover, Shavuot, etc. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:39 It's Odd That Most People Don't Live Spiritual Seasons 1:32 The 4 Biblical Spring Holidays 3:49 Why Celebrate These Holidays 4:31 How The Pryor's Have Developed Their Family Festival Celebrations 10:56 These Festivals Are All About Christ 17:30 How To Celebrate Passover 24:10 Family Shavuot Celebrations 27:12 Join The Accelerator This Month!

Jeremy is joined by Rory Groves, who moved his family to a homestead 12 years ago and eventually quit his software engineer job to build a family economy. They talk about the implications of the industrial revolution and how anti-family (and anti-God) it is, and how families can start to make the mindset shift to build a family economy in a modern world. There are some really fundamental, theological questions that require wrestling with, because so many Christians today give up some fundamental arguments to the secular world, and Jeremy and Rory break many of these down around topics like work, family, economy, and more. They look ahead at the next few years and what to expect with AI, and Rory gives an overview of his book Durable Trades as a way to defend your family against the likely devastation that's incoming.

Is it pointless to try to leave a family legacy when your great grandkids probably won't even know who you are? That's what business influencer Alex Hormozi said recently. "Just help people now, don't worry about a family legacy", is essentially his argument. Reilly Pilgrim and Chris Cirullo join Jeremy to discuss whether this is the right way to think about this as Christians building Family Teams. Jeremy shows us that the Bible actually explicitly answers this question. You might be surprised to find out where!

Modern parenting experts are saying some pretty bizarre things. Is it truly good for children to get a sense that they're not in charge? Or does parental authority somehow limit their freedom of expression? Is the chief aim of parenting to create a "safe" environment for our kids?

We live in a decidedly "therapeutic culture". There are a million questions we could ask about the implications of this, especially as it relates to fatherhood and motherhood, but the one we focus on today is, "Is embracing this therapeutic culture maladaptive for men?" Put another way, we discuss whether fathers are different enough from mothers that the question of therapy itself has to be broken down among gender lines. As always, we believe fatherhood and motherhood are the anchor points of gender. The entire REASON for gender. So, it makes sense that we talk about roles and how each member of the family could or perhaps even should approach therapy. Hit play to find out if dads should approach therapy differently.

These are highly actionable tips that pair really well with the first part of this Housecraft talk (listen to the previous episode of this podcast to hear the 30,000 foot overview of what a family team is and why you should build one!).

Our first granddaughter is 10 days old, and we have a family story to share with you, that we hope will encourage and give hope to all of you mothers out there (and the fathers who lead family teams!). The story you're about to hear absolutely shocked the nurse involved...but we thought it was totally normal. It's just one more proof point to the goodness of God's ancient plan for families, and why we think the Family Teams model works so well. This wasn't something we planned for, or even had as a goal, but our hope is that in sharing it with you, it gives you a direction and perhaps even opens your eyes for the first time to just how deeply connected you can be with the other people in your family.

It is SO strange that a new parenting trend emerges every 5-10 years. For generations, there was basically just "parenting"...passed down from one generation to another. Multi-generational wisdom, essentially...very Family Teams. But with the disintegration of generational families and the rise of hyper-individualism, parents these days are left to come up with their own methods, focusing a little on this, then a little on that. Not only is it dangerous to use an untested parenting method, MOST of them that come out these days (formerly in books, now often via social media influencers), are extremely secular and certainly not wise (the fear of God being the beginning of wisdom...). Jeremy digs into this issue, and how to root yourself in a solid Biblical understanding of fatherhood and motherhood, joined by his wife April and Donna Cheung. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:48 The rise of "parenting trends" 2:35 Why modern culture has led to so many different parenting philosophies (clip) 8:30 The risks of being a young mother in the information age 19:10 Why most parenting studies are bunk and how to weigh advice 26:44 Potential for deception, especially with secular parenting books 32:37 Don't go down the "way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death" Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Hunt, Gather, Parent by Michaleen Doucleff, PhD Maiden, Mother, Matriarch Podcast Clip The Case Against The Sexual Revolution by Louise Perry Family Plan Calendar --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

One of the biggest reasons for the birth rate nosedive is that people no longer hear the positive arguments for having kids. All they hear is the constant societal push for "freedom" being the ultimate virtue. It's led to a culture of hyper-individualism, where having kids makes absolutely no sense, because kids necessarily infringe on your freedom. In this episode, Jeremy is joined by Tyler Graham to make the case for fatherhood from 3 different angles: 1. The Benefits for You 2. The Benefits For Your Family/Business/Marriage 3. Your Duty To Have Kids Dive in, and remember that one of the major ways you can impact your own kids and community is by constantly telling and showing everyone how great fatherhood and motherhood truly is.

Jeremy and April Pryor are joined by Annalisa Barraza to talk about Annalisa's book, You Are Because He Is. Annalisa has worked for Family Teams for almost 5 years, so it's a joy to have her on the show in this capacity and dive into the power of speaking blessings over our children. The book emphasizes the importance of speaking the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus over children to help shape their identity in Christ. This episode also explores the cultural challenges of identity for young women, the role of family in shaping identity, and the significance of grounding identity in Christ rather than emotions or cultural pressures.

The modern culture offers no wisdom when it comes to running a family. In fact, it's designed to burden and disrupt God's good design for family. In this episode, Jeremy sits down with Justin Kershaw, who's modelled much of his family life around the Family Teams principles. They discuss the 3 major levers Justin has pulled to successfully lead his family in relationships, faith, and business: - Implementing a weekly Sabbath - Integrating kids into the business - Seeing birth order as an intentional gift from God Justin Kershaw is a husband, father of 5 daughters, and entrepreneur.

Did Protestants miss something when it comes to contraception? What about hanging our faith on a set of very defined propositions (as opposed to actions and deep inner change)? This episode with Jeremy Pryor and Phil Cotnoir challenges a couple of oft ignored areas of growth in the Protestant church, by hearing from a couple of influential non-Christians and reacting to some fairly accurate critiques being level against the church. We can learn about family and faith from those on the borders of Christianity or Christian ideas...but we should also be able to frame the debate properly and not be overly influenced by liberal social experiments just because the culture seems to agree with them. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 2:27 Naval Ravikant on contraception and family 5:58 Reaction to Naval's 3 points 19:18 How should Protestants approach the conversation of kids for young married couples? 22:22 Personal preference vs. theological question 24:40 Jordan Peterson's problem with Protestantism 32:39 Should Jordan Peterson risk being categorized as a Christian?

Jeremy is joined today by Jonathan Holmes to talk about why identity is such a hot topic today, and what it means for us as Christian parents of kids facing enormous cultural pressure. How do we give our kids a gospel-centric identity in Christ? Do we need to spend more time and effort building a family identity to combat peer-pressured identity formation? How can the church start to take back ground on gender, identity, and the Christian sexual ethic? These topics are hard to talk about, because so many people want to focus solely on the exceptions to the rule, and forgo talking about the general teaching, so it was a blessing to wrestle deeply with these issues with Jonathan. This conversation needs to be happening way more often, especially for those of us with children being impacted by an outside world heavily influenced by the enemy. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:38 Why is "identity" such an important topic today? 4:32 Identity in the gospel 10:06 Peers vs family in the identity-formation process 14:17 Practical tips to ground your children in a Christ-centered identity 19:30 Can family identity cure a lack of identity culturally? 30:07 Competing ideas about gender, and how the Church should respond 35:47 Family vs individual consequences of "gender identity" 41:57 The narrow sexual ethic of the Bible Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Fieldstone Counseling Grounded in Grace by Jonathan Holmes Family Plan Calendar   --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

Jeremy is joined by his wife April, and friends Michelle Akrami and Brittany Stewart to discuss the story of Rebekah, Isaac's wife, in Genesis. How does this story of a mother and her two sons impact our view of motherhood? Did God work through her trying to do things "her way", or did God work in spite of her attempt to ensure her favorite son was blessed? Whatever the implications, we hope this episode gives you pause to think through what the meta narrative is telling us, and allows you to approach Scripture in a thoughtful and curious way to really let it sink in.

In a culture that constantly attacks manhood and faith, how do we help our boys as they transition into manhood? How does a father maintain influence in his son's life amidst the chaos of social media, friends, and sports? Today Jeremy is joined by Stephen Meeks, author of Save The Boys. Stephen helps fathers take their sons through an initiatory rite of passage so that they become men in the best sense of the word. This process is powerful enough to eliminate the "rebellious teenage years" in a family, because it fosters such connection and responsibility.

It's strange to us that so many conservative Christians hold up the "nuclear family" as an ideal. The nuclear family has failed, and needs to be replaced. Now, before you think we've gone crazy, let's talk about what it needs to be replaced by... The TRADITIONAL (or, in Family Teams-speak, the "MULTI-GENERATIONAL") Family. There's a huge difference. Jeremy is joined by Tyler Graham and Chris Cirullo to talk about what that difference is, and how to get back to a Biblical blueprint of family that builds up and blesses, rather than tears down and destroys. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:15 Should we really be defending the "Nuclear Family"? 4:37 "The nuclear family has failed" article 11:25 The paradigm shift from modern to traditional family 22:12 Does the nuclear family actually work? 27:31 The traditional family was a business enterprise 31:17 Multiple generations in DAILY contact 33:11 Traditional family as part of a broader congregation 43:09 Do you believe family is a vehicle? 51:04 Take courage and be hopeful!

In this episode of the Family Teams Podcast (Motherhood Edition!), Jeremy and April are joined by Annalisa Barraza and Miranda Foust to discuss the countercultural idea of women actually enjoying motherhood. Then, the group reacts to a short clip from The Spillover podcast and discuss whether we should be sending our kids to preschool. We hope you notice that, yes, our ideas are often counterintuitive, but it's because something is desperately wrong with the way our culture is doing family. Our goal is to have honest and challenging conversations so that you as a listener can consider things from a new, and hopefully Biblical and multigenerational light. It's not always easy to have these conversations, but it's so worth it if we're going to raise up families that glorify God.

Jeremy and April Pryor wade into the sensitive topic of what happens in marriages when a wife earns more money than a husband, and eventually becomes the "alpha". This conversation is a reaction to a recent video by Patrick Bet-David. Is it guaranteed to cause problems? What are the effects on family in a world where this is becoming increasingly common? This deeply impacts how we raise our daughters and how we work together as family teams, so at risk of offending everybody, we're diving in to explore relationship dynamics and what this means for modern families.

Jeremy is joined by his wife April and their friends Jess and Brittany to react to a couple of recent Youtube videos about family and daughters in particular. First they tackle the question, how do we raise daughters differently from sons, particularly from the Family Teams perspective? Then they dive into the trad wife movement and ask what sort of contingency plans women should have in case the men in her life all let her down. This is a highly nuanced and important conversation to have from a Christian perspective to compare it to the modern, anti-God cultural story we're being told.

Jeremy and April Pryor are joined by Annalisa Barraza, Holly Worley, and Jess Gonyea to discuss two topics surrounding motherhood and femininity, all through the Family Teams lens. First they react to whether there's a place for women to "be" in the family, when compared to working outside the home. Our culture has put "self-expression" as the highest virtue, but can we as Christians really buy into that? Next, they comment on the reality of a woman's biological clock (in reaction to a Brett Cooper video). Even in Christian circles, nobody is talking to young women about the reality of fertility, aging, and the process leading up to having kids, and it's creating a tragic epidemic of "unplanned childlessness". These are the conversations we need to be having to point people back to Truth, Reality, and Christ in a world that's absolutely bent on distorting it all in order to do violence to the family as a vehicle for God's will. On this episode, we talk about: 1:34 Does the "Christian right" need more of a vision for women than being a wife and mother? 5:34 Moms react...is there a place for women to "be" in a family setting? 20:23 The cultural lie that "self-expression" is the ultimate goal 22:48 The Proverbs 31 woman as a vision for mothers and wives 30:35 Brett Cooper on The Reality of a Woman's Biological Clock 40:54 The pill, society's view of children, and "babymoons" 47:40 Integrating your entire life Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Brett Cooper Video --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

Jeremy Pryor is joined by Chris Cirullo and Reilly Pilgrim to talk about inheritance. Inheritance is one of those issues that has been dealt with intentionally and maturely in many cultures for millennia...but Christians are generally really bad at understanding this. However, we can see by looking at the broader cultural narrative in which we live that it's actually liberalism as a worldview that is destroying our idea of inheritance and causing so much confusion for fathers and resentment for adult children. We'll dive into what responsible inheritance looks like in Family Teams, and how to navigate the question around stewarding resources over multiple generations. On this episode, we talk about: 1:24 Is inheritance a blessing or curse? 3:48 Set your kids up for multigenerational success with business and opportunity (reaction to Myron Golden) 17:49 Jeff Goldlum is not planning to give his kids any money...is he right?

Listen to Jeremy Pryor's Father's Day sermon to the Linked UP Church in Atlanta, where he explains how our modern idea of family is broken, while giving hope for the future by diving into God's original, ancient design for family.

Jeremy Pryor is joined by his children Jackson, Sydney, and Elisa to talk about debt, and how young people today are getting so easily sucked into making horrible financial decisions that often lead to LITERALLY giving up their first born child as payment. They do all this by dissecting the fairy tale Rumpelstiltskin, which is absolutely packed with symbolism that we can use to glean wisdom from for today. Learn the sad reality of why most young people get into debt, the various forces out there looking to "get" us (and our future earning years...and even our sense of meaning), and what we can do about it. On this episode, we talk about: 1:56 How to get the most out of fairy tales (and why they're not irrelevant today) 5:34 The story of Rumpelstiltskin 6:48 The point of the story...how and why debt starts 17:00 The vulnerability of young people entering into adulthood 20:06 The most brilliant symbol in the story...what happens when you run out of things to give? 33:31 The happy ending that requires you knowing the name 42:57 The gratitude your children will have if you train them and teach them about the traps of the world Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Family Revision by Jeremy Pryor --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!
