Hey friends. Today’s episode is one I believe every parent, mentor, and believer needs to hear. Because we are living in a world that is discipling our children—faster, louder, and often more convincingly than we are.
Our kids are being shaped by social media, school agendas, political noise, and cultural confusion. And the Church? Too often, we’ve either retreated in fear or reacted in pride. But what if there’s a better way?
In this episode, I’m getting honest about the culture wars, the deep divisions within the Church, and how we as families can rise above the chaos. I’ll walk you through how to raise children who think critically, love deeply, and follow Jesus—not with fear or arrogance, but with discernment, humility, and grace.
We’ll unpack practical tools from the Happy Kid Toolkit, role-play real-life scenarios using the Unhappy Kid Triangle and Happy Kid Triangle, and reflect on how Jesus responded to cultural tension—with truth and tenderness.
This one’s not just for parents—it’s for anyone who wants to be part of healing, not more harm.
So grab your journal. This episode might shake you a little—but I believe it will also strengthen you.
xoxo,
Danielle
