Is your family in the middle of a storm? In this episode of Family Vision, Rob Rienow shares powerful biblical encouragement to help families face life's storms together. Recorded live at Gull Lake Family Camp (with a broken rib!), Rob brings practical, hope-filled principles straight from God's Word.
Storms in life are unavoidable, but how we face them makes all the difference. Jesus reminds us that the wise build their house on the rock—hearing His words and putting them into practice. Whether your storm is illness, financial struggle, or relational conflict, God has a plan to strengthen your family and draw you closer together.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- Four biblical action steps for families in the midst of storms
- Why prayer is more than just saying "we should pray"
- How messy, needy, childlike prayers are powerful to God
- The importance of choosing to "stick together" and not turn on each other
- How to extend grace when family members respond differently to stress

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
