When your family is walking through grief or feeling the weight of spiritual warfare, how can you hold on to faith and stick together? In this episode of Family Vision, Rob Rienow shares biblical wisdom and practical encouragement from Part 2 of his message Facing Storms Together as a Family, recorded live at Gull Lake Family Camp.
Storms not only test our circumstances—they test our relationships and our faith. Grief, loss, or even everyday stress can tempt us toward anger, division, or despair. But God calls us to extend grace, walk with one another patiently, and resist giving the Enemy a foothold. No matter what your family is facing, His Word gives us strength and hope.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- Why it’s critical to accept one another’s differences in how we process conflict and stress
- How to walk patiently with children through grief and loss
- The danger of giving the devil a foothold through anger
- Why temptation always promises “Texas de Brazil” but delivers “bowling alley pizza”
- A powerful reminder from Psalm 130: God has not brought us this far to abandon us now

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
