About this listen

Through honest conversation about modern parenting challenges, Adam Griffin shares how Christian families can create a discipleship-centered home culture that nurtures genuine faith in children while freeing parents from perfectionistic anxiety.

• Anxiety in middle-class American parenting stems from making everything important and measurable
• The gospel offers freedom from perfectionism without lowering standards
• Family discipleship doesn't require theological expertise—just willingness to grow alongside your children
• Modeling faith requires being both reliable (consistent) and relatable (connected)
• Creating intentional rhythms (daily Bible reading, prayer, special monthly one-on-ones) builds discipleship culture
• Biblical patience means resilience and tenacity, not just waiting quietly
• True discipleship happens in relationship, not through programs or mere information transfer
• Raising up leaders in local churches should mirror Jesus' relational approach to developing disciples
