Today’s Bible Verse: “For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” — Matthew 8:9

Matthew 8:9 highlights a powerful moment of faith from an unexpected source. A Roman centurion recognized something many others missed — Jesus’ authority didn’t depend on physical presence. He understood that if Jesus gave the word, it was as good as done.

Today we’re sharing a special episode from the "Gracebased Podcast", a show designed to help parents raise kids who are fully alive in God. Each episode answers real parenting questions with biblical wisdom and practical encouragement for the everyday challenges of family life.

In this episode, a mom of four asks how to keep the “big picture” of parenting in focus when life feels nonstop. The conversation explores God’s blueprint for families, the importance of playing the long game, and how to see daily parenting moments as opportunities for spiritual formation—not just survival.

If you’re a parent (or supporting one), this episode offers hope-filled perspective and tools you can apply right away.

Key Takeaways:

- Parenting is consequential: Our influence shapes who our kids become.
- Kids want us to succeed: They desire a relationship and support in their spiritual growth.
- Parenting amidst busyness: Embrace opportunities in everyday moments to connect and guide spiritually.
