  • Here are some of the main points from this episode:

    No Marriage is Perfect!

    We just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and one thing that hit us that oftentimes what people share is not the full truth or even fully close to the reality of the journey one has been on for ____ amount of years in their marriage!

    We don’t want you to ever get the wrong impression that we think we have the perfect marriage, or that we would even portray that! We do have a thriving marriage, and for that we thank the LORD because it’s what He has done in each of our hearts that has brought us to this place!

    But the reality is that relationships, particularly marriage, can be hard, people sin against and offend one another, get selfish, annoy each other at times, and so much more.

    The reality is that two sinful humans enter into holy matrimony, which means there is a huge opportunity for hurt, sinning against one another, being selfish, being “real” with one another which can often times equate to “not trying anymore.” BUT, on the bright side that means there is equally an opportunity for each individual in the marriage to grow in grace, forgive, grow in understanding, love, serve, be more selfless, and ask for forgiveness and walk in humility acknowledging when they sin!

    God deeply wants to do a powerful work in you and in your marriage. AND He has chosen marriage as the best avenue for refinement in all the godly character qualities He wants you to grow in!

    Isn’t that exciting?

  • Do you have strong biblical community? Do you know the people you go to church with? Do you or they notice when someone is not there and follow up? Is there authentic knowing of one another or do you only see each other on Sunday, maybe? You may think your church awesome! I hope you do! I hope this episode only spurs you on in more appreciate of what you already have! But when we ask people about what makes their church so special, the first thing most people will say, is the people. Is your church representative of the “Family of God” in your life? Have you ever even experienced it? What I am asking is not about how “good of a sermon” you heard on Sunday, although that is an essential element and one worthy of changing churches over. But anyone can listen to a great sermon now with everything online.

    The second greatest commandment Jesus left us with after “love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. ” in Matthew 22:37-38 was v. 39, “ And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

    Neighbor. Just think about that for a moment. Do you actually know your neighbors? People in your town? I am wondering if you have strong trusting relationships with others who live near you. People who will help when that time comes and who can trust you to help them. I hope you do! We know many amazing people in our community, but none of us fellowship together in Church!

    Isaac and Angie Tolpin talk about why they are planting a brick and mortar church in the center of their home town and some of the changes they are making to the modern church model to go beyond Sunday attendance to a culture of real connection. Get practical insights that are sure to make you reflect on church, community, and perhaps strengthen your intentionality with people locally.

  • Have you ever wondered what it would look like for your family if financial provision happened in a different way? Davy Liu was a top character designer at Disney working on many top films including The Lion King. But he saw the evil building within the organization and took a leap of faith to bring Disney quality imagery to Christian children’s books and movies. This is a powerful story of following through on the Holy Spirit’s conviction, risking financial security, to pursue his real calling that glorifies God.

    In an effort to help all families understand adoption and other adopted children they wrote a book with BRAVE books called, “Dear Valor”. A heartwarming story your children are sure to love that will likely help you prompt healthy conversations around the biblical concept of adoption.

  • In this episode Isaac and Angie discuss the very real need for parents to cultivate the kind of relationship with their children where they “tell them the necessary things” while also teaching the biblical approach to conflict resolution.

    What does the Bible teach regarding tattling and gossip, how do the two go hand in hand, and how does a parent teach children at different ages how to learn this skill of truth-telling and caring for others while also being careful not to cross the line of gossip?

    Parents must evaluate the spiritual maturity and emotional intelligence of their children, and teach biblical truth and how it applies to us as we live out our lives as Christ followers!

  • Video games, social media, smart phones, and pornography are all issues the parents today must navigate with caution, wisdom, and foresight. This is potentially one of the most relevant topics facing parents today: how to parent in a technology world?

    Not only do we as parents need to make some parenting decisions regarding how to navigate this touchy subject, we also need to equip our children and teach them WHY! There are a lot of opinions out there regarding when or if you should give a teenager a smart phone with internet, but what does the science say?

    In this very important episode our guest shares her personal testimony of parenting a teen and young adult who struggled through an addiction to video games and how those lessons learned changed her parenting with her next three children and changed the trajectory of her family culture and her career. Join Angie as she, Melanie and Evan Hempe from Screen Strong discuss the scientific evidence of effects on the brain and some suggestions on how to navigate the teen years.

    Today’s podcast episode is a lively, relevant, educational, and fun conversation between a Mom and her son and host Angie Tolpin. Screen Strong has developed curriculums for both parents and children alike to teach on “Kid’s Brains & Screens” as well as help parents navigate a detox if necessary. If you or someone you know is struggling with how to navigate parenting on these topics, please consider sharing this episode with them.

    We do not need to parent alone. There is so much information out there, but to have two older moms share their hearts, experiences, failures, and lessons learned is truly priceless and they don’t leave you anxious about the potential harms, rather, Melanie shares some tips, tools, and resources to help you as you stand strong in culture that is shifting wayward like the tides of the culture.

  • Every parent has dealt with a child interrupting. Join Angie and Ginger as they talk about the heart issue behind interrupting, how it can be a temptation for parents to sin as well, how we need to watch our own hearts, and how important it is to teach our children to have a respect for all people.

    The importance of keeping communication lines open with our kids is a major goal of every parent, but how we respond to our children can greatly impact that line of communication.

    If a parent ignores their child while talking to another adult, it can speak that their opinions or needs are not as important as the conversation they are having. We don’t want to communicate that our children are being annoying, rude, and not worth listening to with our actions. It could be a root cause for children feeling as though the parent doesn’t value their thoughts and feelings. This is very foundational in our relationships with our children– fragile ground if you will. But at the same time, we don’t want to cultivate a selfish, self-centered heart in our child by always attending to our child’s every whim at the cost of minimizing the value of others. There is a balance of teaching how to respectfully notify the parent that they need something without interrupting and also taking a moment away from adult conversations at a time that is appropriate and respectful of the other person you were speaking with.

    Go to our website for the show notes, tips for correcting your children biblically, perspective shifts necessary for parents, and scripture references.

  • Christian parents are feeling more alone than ever as they navigate equipping their children in unprecedented times, but it doesn't have to be this way! There's a growing parallel economy of Christian conservative resources. At the forefront is BRAVE books! We went to their headquarters to discuss with their CEO and founder, Trent Talbot, what's behind one of the most compelling Christian children's book publishers helping parents today.

    It's an incredible story of Trent leaving the safety of his career to obey God in starting BRAVE books. His bravery is helping to shift culture with 36 books (so far) by conservative celebrity authors, a movement to fix the library system, and an upcoming TV show with Kirk Cameron that gives parents a better option.

    There's a power in using good stories to impact the next generation. It's vital for parents to proactively address the hot-button issues that are influencing children toward waywardness. The challenge is, that it's hard for parents to know how to communicate with their kids about these complex issues that are oftentimes hidden in the media they consume. Finally, a new children's book can arrive every month that your children will love; and the bonus is that it also helps you, the parent, to equip your children in sound thinking with a conservative and biblical perspective on the issues of today.
