  Better Ways to Read the Bible: (Engaging with Scripture in a Healthy, Accurate Way to Help You Raise Kids in a Faith They Don’t Have to Heal From) with Pastor Zach Lambert

  Aug 19, 20261h 7m

  In this powerful episode, Wendy welcomes Pastor Zach Lambert, author of Better Ways to Read the Bible, for a hopeful and honest conversation about engaging with scripture in ways that bring life, not fear. Zach shares how many people have experienced harm through rigid or fear-based interpretations of the Bible, and how a healthier, more Christ-centered approach can help families rebuild trust, deepen faith, and raise kids in a faith they don’t have to heal from later. Together, Wendy and Zach explore why questions and doubts aren’t threats to faith, how harmful biblical interpretations often reveal themselves through bad fruit, and why parents can feel empowered to read scripture with humility, courage, and compassion. This conversation is a beautiful invitation for parents who want their homes, churches, and faith communities to reflect the way of Jesus, rooted in love, justice, gentleness, and flourishing for all people. ➡️ Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/335 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more info and links.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Grab your copy of ⁠⁠⁠Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home⁠⁠⁠ today!

  How to Help Teens Delay Sexual Activity—Without Shame or Fear with Kimberly Wolf

  Aug 12, 20261h 6m

  What if the key to helping your teen make safer, more thoughtful choices around sex… wasn’t control, silence, or fear? But connection, honesty, and real education? In this powerful and refreshingly honest conversation, Wendy's joined by sex educator Kimberly Wolf to talk about how we can guide our kids through one of the most misunderstood (and often avoided) topics in parenting, without shame, awkwardness, or panic. They dive into what kids are actually being exposed to these days (it’s a lot), why avoiding the conversation can backfire in big ways, and how simple, everyday moments can become opportunities to build trust, safety, and confidence in your child. You’ll learn why kids who receive clear, respectful, fact-based education are actually more likely to delay sexual activity, and how to become the safe place your child turns to when it matters most. This episode is honest, eye-opening, and incredibly empowering, no matter what your background or belief system is. ➡️ Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/334 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more info and links.⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Grab your copy of ⁠⁠Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home⁠⁠ today!

  Why We Keep Repeating the Pain: Healing Repetition Compulsion with Lauren Dollie Duke

  Jul 22, 20261h 13m

  Why do we keep repeating the same painful patterns… even when we know better? In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Wendy sits down with somatic practitioner and author Lauren Duke to unpack the truth behind repetition compulsion, the unconscious pull that keeps us stuck in familiar cycles of pain, conflict, and disconnection. Lauren shares the extraordinary story of walking across Spain on the Camino de Santiago with her family, a bold, healing journey that helped her finally interrupt lifelong patterns of avoidance, reactivity, and emotional pain. Together, they explore how our nervous systems are wired to repeat what hasn’t been resolved, how awareness creates the opportunity for change, and why real healing often begins when we’re willing to look in the mirror and take responsibility for our part. This episode will challenge you, empower you, and remind you that even the deepest family wounds can be transformed. ➡️ Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/332 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more info and links.⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Grab your copy of ⁠⁠Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home⁠⁠ today!
