You Don’t Need Their Approval: How to Lead Your Family with Godly Confidence

Are you feeling resistance from your children—or even your spouse—as you step into leadership or obedience to God’s call on your life?

In today’s episode, I’m talking to every Christian mom who’s trying to lead her family with love and conviction—but keeps bumping into disapproval, distance, or doubt from the very people she loves most.

Here’s the truth: You don’t need their approval to follow God. And leading your home doesn’t mean staying silent. It means going first—with gentleness, wisdom, and peace.

We’re covering:

• What to do when your children don’t like the direction you’re heading

• How to lead without fighting

• The surprising gift of being “unavailable” to your family sometimes

• Why obedience to God often brings growth to those around you

You can lead your home with confidence and stay rooted in grace—even when it’s hard. Let's talk about how.

“Am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” – Galatians 1:10
