The Family Teams Podcast
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. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:23 Raising Kids Who Want to Become Parents 3:05...

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...

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...

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! On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:39 Hormozi Says Future...

Birth rates are declining rapidly across the Western and developed world. Yet...there are still families out there having 5+ children, completely defying modern trends. What encourages someone to have a large family? How do we promote the benefits and joys of having a lot of kids? What does it mean for the future of our country and our world? In today's episode, Jeremy dives into this topic with economist and author, Dr. Catherine Pakaluk of the Catholic University of America, to discuss her work on the subject, specifically her book Hannah's Children: The Women Quietly Defying The Birth...

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? Should we force our kids to create their own version of good and evil? We answer these questions and more on today's podcast. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:45 How does authority interact with children? 1:41 Dr. Becky Talks Authority 11:55 Gabor Mate on 3 Modes of Parenting 20:10 The Issue With...
