  Jul 9, 202635 minS9

  A major new study just dropped on faith transmission across generations — and Josh breaks it down. Drawing from Passing the Torch (Institute for Family Studies), decades of research by Vern Bengston on relational warmth, and John Gottman's data on repair, this episode answers the question we’re all asking as Christian parents: Will my kids keep the faith when they leave home?

  Why Honor Still Matters in a Culture of Relational Cutoff

  Jul 1, 202633 minS9

  If you've ever wrestled with complicated family dynamics or wondered how to honor your parents or in-laws while protecting your own family, this episode will encourage and challenge you with a deeply biblical perspective. What does it really mean to honor your father and mother in a culture that often encourages us to walk away from difficult relationships? In this episode, Josh explores why honoring your parents doesn't mean denying your pain—but it does require a biblical perspective on love, boundaries, forgiveness, and generational legacy. In this episode, Josh discusses: How your children are learning from the way you treat your parents Why we've inflated words like toxic , trauma , and boundaries The difference between honoring someone and enabling unhealthy behavior Why healing doesn't always require cutting people off The power of reframing your family story Practical ways to navigate difficult relationships with parents and in-laws How to discern between characterological versus circumstantial expectations of your parents / in-laws *Thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode!

  Why Good Parents are Raising Less Capable Kids with David Thomas

  Jun 24, 202646 minS9

  Parents today have more resources, information, and support than ever before—yet anxiety, fragility, and emotional struggles among children continue to rise. In this conversation, bestselling author and counselor David Thomas joins Josh to explore a difficult question: Have our good intentions as parents unintentionally gotten in the way of raising capable, resilient kids? Together they discuss: Why confidence grows from competence—not constant praise How over-helping can undermine a child's resilience The surprising connection between failure and emotional health Why happiness should never be the primary goal of parenting The dangers of "rescuing" kids from every struggle How healthy boundaries create security What today's anxiety epidemic reveals about modern parenting Why children need opportunities to struggle, fail, and recover Practical ways to build capability at every age David also shares one simple challenge every parent can implement this week to begin raising children who are resourceful, resilient, and prepared for life. If you've ever wondered whether you're helping your child too much—or how to raise kids who can thrive in an increasingly fragile culture—this episode is for you. *Thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode!
