The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Today marks the 1400th episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, and I couldn't be more excited to celebrate it with one of the most important people in my life—my 9-year-old son, Colton. In this fun, heartfelt, and candid father-son conversation, we dive into some of the powerful questions from my free resource, Questions for the Car, to model what intentional connection looks like between a dad and his kid. Colton opens up about everything from his love of dodgeball and tacos to what makes him feel proud, loved, and connected to our family. We laugh, share stories, and flip the script as Colton even asks me a question or two. This episode is a reminder that our kids are always listening—and when we ask the right questions, they start to open up in ways that shape our relationship forever.

Ask Better Questions, Get Better Connection: Our Questions for the Car tool helps dads go beyond "How was your day?" and into deeper, more meaningful conversations. Celebrate the Small Wins: Confidence grows from moments like a dodgeball victory or a hike with Dad—highlight them and talk about them. Let Them See You as Human: When Colton asked me a question, it reminded me how valuable it is to let our kids learn about us, too. Legacy Is Built One Conversation at a Time: Every car ride, bedtime chat, or dinner table question is a chance to connect, shape, and influence our kids for life.

When JJ Weeks was a teenager, someone recognized he had some serious vocal talent. It was a talent that he learned God could use to share His love and grace through song. Though he never learned to play an instrument, he still formed the JJ Weeks Band in 2001. While today he's a solo artist, God still has JJ Weeks on mission, singing Gospel truth. Most well known for his song Let Them See You, the native of Macon, Georgia who was once labeled a “powerhouse voice” is still intent on being used by God to make a difference in people's lives.

In search for a game, Pastors Wofmueller and Goeglein look at some survey questions sent out by the Northwest District of the Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod to see various ways in which some deny vocation, the holy office and the church. Finally, they crunch the praise song "Let Them See You" by JJ Weeks Band.
More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Before this week's song, "Let Them See You" by the JJ Weeks Band was a song, it was a prayer that the lead singer, JJ, would pray every day. This prayer has led me to Psalm 78 and a discussion on legacy found in God's Word. Scripture will challenge us this week to remember His promises and repeat them to others. I can't wait to see what God will do in you this week. On this week's episode I discuss: Letting our children see God working in and around us by sharing more Our responsibility to teach our children found in Deuteronomy 6:5-9 God's call to tell the next generation of His glorious deeds found in Psalm 78 The idea of repeating and remembering How can you repeat God's commands if you do not know them? How can you remember what God has done if you do not record it? Allowing God to strip away all that "defines us" This Week's Challenge Read Psalm 78. Then read or listen to it every day for an entire week. Through that repetition and the Spirit's prompting, underline any phrases or verses that jump out at you and write them on a sticky note or note card to review separately. At some point during the week or near the week's end, write a summary of the Psalm in your own words and then share it with someone. Identify your "aha" moment in the Psalm and write that down. Write down how you think that should impact your life right now and what you are supposed to DO as a result of this new insight. Finally, sow that seed into the life of someone else before the week is up.
