Navigating Grandparent Roles in High Conflict DivorcesThis episode of "It's All Your Fault" features Bill Eddy and Megan Hunter addressing two distinct listener questions. The first explores the challenging position grandparents face when their adult children experience contentious divorces. The second examines complex co-parenting dynamics involving an ex-spouse demonstrating high conflict behavior and a new spouse seeking involvement.Understanding Family Dynamics in High Conflict SituationsThe hosts examine how family members can effectively navigate these challenging situations while maintaining appropriate boundaries. They discuss practical strategies for managing communication, setting limits, and fostering healthy relationships during custody disputes and co-parenting arrangements.First Listener Question: Grandparent Support During DivorceHow can grandparents maintain supportive relationships with both parents?What strategies help when grandchildren show signs of alienation?How should grandparents respond to concerning statements from grandchildren?When should grandparents intervene versus step back?What approaches help maintain healthy boundaries while supporting the family?Second Listener Question: Co-Parenting with Ex-Spouse and New WifeHow to manage communication with an ex-spouse showing high conflict behavior?What boundaries make sense when dealing with military-related trauma?Should you engage with the new wife's attempts at relationship building?How to maintain BIFF communication effectively?When is parallel parenting more appropriate than attempted collaboration?Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize several key approaches for managing these complex situations. They stress the importance of setting clear, matter-of-fact limits to maintain healthy relationships and recommend using the "four big skills" framework when teaching children appropriate behaviors. The discussion highlights how parallel parenting often proves more sustainable than forced closeness, and emphasizes the value of building trust gradually rather than rushing relationships. The hosts also underscore the importance of maintaining healthy skepticism while remaining open to positive developments in these challenging family dynamics.The episode provides valuable insights for grandparents, divorced parents, and new spouses navigating complex family dynamics. While recognizing the challenges of these situations, the hosts offer practical approaches that prioritize children's wellbeing while maintaining appropriate boundaries.Additional ResourcesExpert Publications⇨ Book (pre-orders - publishing November 2025):  SLIC Solutions for Conflict: Setting Limits & Imposing Consequences in 2 1/2 Steps⇨ Book: BIFF for CoParent Communication (Appendix B mentioned in podcast)⇨ Book: Don't Alienate the KidsPersonal Transformation Solutions⇨ Conflict Influencer® 6-week class (Zoom) for everyone⇨ New Ways for Families® Co-parenting Without Court Online Class (with optional coaching - mentioned in podcast)⇨ 1:1 Coaching & Consultation (For Your Legal Case w/ Bill Eddy; For Other Situations w/ Megan Hunter)Professional Development⇨ Bill Eddy's Signature New Ways Training (for mediators; for counselors and divorce coaches; for workplace coaches; for workplace leaders)Connect With Us⇨ Visit High Conflict Institute: highconflictinstitute.com⇨ Submit questions for Bill and Megan⇨ Browse our complete collection of books and resources in our online store—available in print and e-book formats⇨ Find these show notes and all past episode notes on our websiteWatch this episode on YouTube!Important NoticeOur discussions focus on behavioral patterns rather than diagnoses.

Over the past decades, our nations and world have seen many changes. Some good, other changes not so good. It is not our grandparents' country or even our grandparents' country music anymore. Now, artists are covered in tattoos, earrings, and use language in their music that prior generations would have never permitted. The dangers of “wokeism” have worked their way into even the most (formerly) conservative institutions.Now, do you believe in this ministry?

September 28, 2025 - Sunday PM Sermon   Developing Spiritual Resilience (Matt. 13:18-23, 2 Cor. 4:8-9) - David Pahman Spiritual resilience- the continuation of religious beliefs and practices through changing events and circumstances in life.  Job 1:21-22 - “The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.” In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrong. Habakkuk 3:17-18 - “Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation.”  According to 21st Century Christian “Churches of Christ in the United States” Number of congregations fell by 1,103 or 8.5% from 2000-2018 - 13,032 to 11,929 Total members of the churches of Christ Declined by 13.12% From 1,645,545 (2000) to 1,429,699 (2018)  Congregation Size 65% of the congregations have 99 or fewer members with an average of 47 35% of the congregations have 49 or fewer members with an average of 29 Whose responsibility is it to prepare our young people for life in today's culture?  It is the primary responsibility of parents. The Israelites were to educate their children what God had done for them. Ex. 13:8 - "And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, 'This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.'” God's truths were to be passed down from generation to generation. Ps.78:5-7 - …And appointed a law in Israel, Which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children;6 That the generation to come might know them, the children who would be born, That  they may arise and declare them to their children,7 That they may set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments.  Fathers, in particular, are to teach their children. Isa 38:19 - …The father shall make known Your truth to the children. Eph 6:4 - And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. It is a non-stop process that begins at birth and continues through maturity. Deut. 6:5-7 - "You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.” Grandparents, schools and other Christians have responsibilities Grandparents have an important role Ex 10:2 - "and that you may tell in the hearing of your son and your son's son the mighty things I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have done among them, that you may know that I am the LORD." Deut 4:9 - "Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren 2 Tim 1:5 - when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also. Schools have great influence Acts 22:3 - "I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus  of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness  of our fathers' law and was zealous toward God as you all are today. The schools of the Chaldeans tried to hinder. Dan. 1:3 - Then the king instructed Ashpenaz, the master of his eunuchs, to bring some of the children of Israel …,4 young men in whom there was no blemish, but good-looking, gifted in all wisdom, possessing knowledge and quick to understand, who had ability to serve in the king's palace, and whom they might teach the language and literature of the Chaldeans. Other church members are to teach as well. Titus 2:2-6 - that the older men be sober, reverent,  temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; the older women likewise, that they be reverent in  behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things-- that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. Likewise exhort the young men to be sober-minded, Suggestions for Christians in today's world Help our young people to experience God – text, social media, home Bible studies, host teens and college students, singles and young couples, engage outside of assemblies, sing their songs along with old favorites, engage with them in worship, Help our young people to discern the culture around them to identify what is of Christ and what is not – reflect with others, engage in conversations, ask about their pressures Develop meaningful, intergenerational relationships –Singing nights, meals after services, support youth events, connect with grandchildren, connect with young adults Help young people to train for vocational ministry – all need to know how they can minister in their occupations of choice Engage in countercultural mission – help young people to thrive in a different culture, teach to be salt & light 2 Cor. 4:8-9 “We are afflicted in every way, but not crush; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed” Rom. 8:37-38 “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure  that neither death, nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor  height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ  Jesus our Lord.” 2 Tim. 4:7-8 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.”     Duration 37:29

Various Texts | JD Summers It's common in our world today to dread getting old. We often fear death and idolize youthfulness. But God sees age as a sign of blessing, of a life well enjoyed. God has a high calling for senior saints, both in ministering to their spiritual families and their natural families. In God's economy, elder saints are invaluable to their younger brothers and sisters in the church. Older believers can pass on a legacy of wisdom and faithfulness to the next generation of believers in their church and in their own families. Physically, we may wither as we grow older, but in his grace God bears fruit from the righteous in their old age.

  Guest: Karol Ladd, author, speaker, and involved grandparent - check out Karol's latest blog articles on the power of positive grandparenting   If you'd like to watch this podcast, check out the PCA YouTube page.   The world tells grandparents one of two untruths…first, that because they are older, they are insignificant; and second, now is their time to retire and take care of their own needs and desires. The Bible paints a much different picture for grandparents. Proverbs 16:31 says, “Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.” That “crown of glory” is to be respected and honored and the wisdom that comes with age should be considered valuable. This proper perspective or grandparenting is shared in Dr. Josh Mulvihill's outstanding book titled Grand Parenting: Strengthening Your Family and Passing on Your Faith, which is one of the eight books in the Grandparenting Matters series.   Last week was Grandparents Day for the PCA North campus, and this Friday, September 19th is Grandparents Day for the Plano campus. We hope that all grandparents are able to attend and we want to get connected with each grandparent who wants to be equipped to be a strong spiritual influence in their family and the community!

Episode 542 - Kevin Shanks, Troubled Waters Brewing Happy Monday, Thieves! Troubled Waters Brewing was founded by a father and son duo, Steve and Kevin Shanks. While both grew up in Chicago, they have strong family roots in Safety Harbor, FL. Kevin's Great Aunt moved to Safety Harbor in the 60s when she built a house. She was involved in the local community and even sold the Chamber of Commerce building to the Chamber. Kevin's Grandparents often visited her, and when they retired, they purchased a house down the street from her. Steve and Kevin have personally been visiting Safety Harbor for more than 30 years. Around 2009 Steve moved to Safety Harbor after retiring and Kevin made the jump in 2016. After some time working in the Cigar City tasting room, Kevin and Steve decided to set out on their own and open up Troubled Waters Brewing Company. They are now five years into the project. Kevin joins the show this week as we once again record from the swanky bar inside the Hotel Karol and he brings some real gems for the black glass.

Grandparents are a gift from God—keepers of wisdom, love, and family history. Proverbs 17:6 reminds us that “Children’s children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.” Whether we grew up enjoying time with grandparents or carry the ache of being separated from them, God calls us to honor, treasure, and bless the generations before us. In your daily prayer and devotion, Lynette Kittle shares encouragement for grandparents who may feel overlooked or left out, and she reminds us of God’s faithfulness across every generation. Even when family relationships are strained, prayer, blessing, and forgiveness create space for healing and hope. Main Takeaways God designed grandparents to hold a place of honor within families. Grandparents pass on wisdom and faith that impact future generations. Even when relationships feel fractured, prayer is powerful in bringing restoration. Blessing others, even when it’s hard, reflects Christ’s love and keeps our hearts tender. Bible Verse References Proverbs 17:6 – Grandchildren are a crown to the aged. Psalm 119:90 – God’s faithfulness continues through all generations. 2 Timothy 1:5 – Faith passed down through generations. James 5:16 – The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. Luke 6:28 – Bless those who mistreat you. Calls to Action (CTAs) Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for encouragement rooted in God’s Word.

In this week's episode, Tamara tells Anna about the ups and downs of her childhood, which was spent in both Argentina and the U.S., and what she wishes her parents had done differently.   This episode was produced by Cameron Drews.

In this episode, I'm joined by Aaron Larsen, founder of The Grandparents Academy, to talk about how adult parents can better communicate with their own parents about baby-led weaning and other modern parenting choices.. If you want to honor the important role your baby's grandparents play while sticking to your feeding philosophy, this episode will show you how. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. How to navigate tough conversations with your baby's grandparents about parenting choices like baby-led weaning without creating conflict 2. Practical ways to include and honor grandparents even when your feeding approach looks different from how they raised you. 3. Scripts and language for inviting grandparents into the conversation through events like the Grandparents Week Summit, so they feel empowered, not excluded.
