The KEY To Building A Family That Lasts: 3 Generations, 1 Table, Every Week (And How To Make It FUN!)
The Family Teams Podcast
FREE PDF: How To Start A Weekly, Multigenerational Family Meal Rhythm: --- If you decide to craft a weekly, multi-generational family meal, and stick with it every week, we're convinced that this is THE thing that will unlock a close, cohesive, loving family that lasts for generations. BUT... And it's a big but... If it's not fun, nobody's going to want to do it. You can only force little kids to join you at the table for so long until they're big enough to decide for themselves. Ideally we want our kids to come back to the weekly family dinner table when they're 10, 20, 30, 40, 50...you get...

Why Feminism Is The Deadliest Cultural Revolution Ever (And Is NOT Christian)

Jeremy is joined by Dr. Carrie Gress today to talk about feminism, gender, abortion, and why all of this is a slow but steady under-the-radar revolution in...

Why The DINK Movement Is Destroying Society
The Family Teams Podcast
You've probably heard about this phrase, "DINK Lifestyle"...it stands for "Dual Income, No Kids". This is a lifestyle that some couples are choosing to live, whereby they prioritize work and income and doing whatever they want, without the "burden" of kids. This is a selfish, anti-family, and very sad way to live, and it's vital that we put forward a more compelling vision for the future so that we save as many people as possible from going down this path of regret. Jeremy is joined by Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations, to talk about the SILK lifestyle..."Single Income, Lots of...
