Adam and Chelsea sit down with counselor, author, and longtime parenting expert David Thomas to discuss his new book Capable.

What if family devotions didn’t have to be perfect to be effective? Adam and Cassie sit down with Carl Laferton to talk about what family Bible time really looks like in a normal home—and why the ordinary, imperfect moments are often where God is doing the most. If you’ve ever thought:

• “We should be doing family devotions…”
• “We tried, but it didn’t go well…”
• “I don’t feel equipped to lead my kids spiritually…”

This episode is for you. Carl offers a refreshing, honest take:
Family devotions are necessary—but they’re not everything. They’re one part of a much bigger picture: a home where the gospel shows up in everyday life. “Family Bible time is not sufficient for discipleship… but it is a necessary foundation.” Let this Mother’s Day be a reminder that she deserves care, too.

What does it actually mean to lead your family spiritually? For many parents, the pressure feels overwhelming. But in this conversation, Alistair Begg reframes success in a refreshingly simple and biblical way:

• Keep your kids alive
• Feed their bodies
• And don’t neglect feeding their souls

Through stories from his own childhood, parenting years, and now as a grandfather, Alistair encourages parents to focus less on performance and more on consistent, Christ-centered rhythms. This episode is especially helpful for parents who feel:

• Unequipped to teach the Bible
• Discouraged by inconsistency
• Unsure how to balance grace and obedience

From silly phobias to real panic, fear shows up in parenting all the time. Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie talk about crowds, kids going missing for a minute, and the dread of what could happen when we’re not there.

This one’s practical, honest, and full of grace for moms and dads who need to breathe and remember: our kids—and our hearts—are in stronger hands.Resources Mentioned:
