Use This Unfair Advantage for Stress-Free Christian Finances ft. Bob Lotich
The Family Teams Podcast
Money is such a contentious issue. In the world at large, but specifically within the Christian community. The love of money is the root of all evil...but does that mean making money is wrong? Do I really need to tithe 10%? Is budgeting a lack of trust in God? There's a million questions that end up becoming quite theological, and it can be tough to find God's peace in the whole conversation. That's why we brought on Bob Lotich, from Seed Time, to give us an overview from his experience and perspective as a Christian financial expert, on how families can think about money from a Christian...

The Destruction of The Multigenerational Family

Viral Youtuber "Dad, How Do I?" On Being A Dad and Sharing The Gospel After Negative Backlash ft. Rob Kenney
The Family Teams Podcast
Rob Kenney is best known as the man behind the viral Youtube account, "Dad, How Do I?" He shares videos explaining things that dads ought to have taught their kids... How to tie a tie, how to change a tire, how to make good food, etc. And he hit a nerve when he burst onto the scene in 2020, tapping into the father-hunger unconsciously felt by many young people today.

In this conversation, we go into how he intentionally stepped into the identity of FATHER, and the backlash he endured from sharing...

He Escaped Iran in 1979. Now He's Equipping The Underground Church (How To Help Christians in Iran) ft. David Nasser
The Family Teams Podcast
David Nasser narrowly escaped Iran in 1979 after the revolution. He saw "religion gone wrong" and decided that he hated God.

We discuss his story, what's happening in Iran with the church, how we can help, and the biggest lessons on family that he took from the Middle East (compared to our western obsession with hyper-individualism).

Should Women Have Kids or Get PhDs? (Reddit Reaction)
The Family Teams Podcast
FREE 5 Day Email Series to Turn Your Family Into a Team: --- Is it better to get a PhD, or have a child? I found this wild interaction on the "child-free" subreddit, and had to comment on it from our pro-family point of view here at Family Teams. There's a huge lie in the undercurrent of our society that has convinced so many young women to become hyper-individualistic and focused on self at the expense of children and family, and it's so tragic. This is a good way to showcase that lie and remind everyone to start celebrating kids and family. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro...

Build Family Assets, NOT Careers with Jeremy and Kristin Netting
The Family Teams Podcast
One of the things we talk a lot about here at Family Teams is the idea of ASSETS over CAREERS.

While it's not right for everyone, we think it's right for way more people than are currently doing it! Jeremy and Kristin Netting join us today to talk about how they've started building family assets, and it goes WAY beyond just "start a business". We're talking things like how to actually work with your family as a team, how to start training your kids young...
