“We become our habits, and our kids become us. This is why habits of the household are the most spiritually formative thing parents do.”

Today, Jim welcomes writer, speaker, and lawyer Justin Whitmel Earley to speak about, what Jim has called, one of the best parenting books he has ever read: Habits of The Household. Throughout this revelatory conversation, Jim and Justin discuss the beauty of daily rhythms and how each choice helps shape our children’s understanding of discipleship to Jesus. With grace and practical encouragement, Justin urges us to be active in forming our habits rather than letting the chaos of everyday life form them for us. This is a profound and deeply encouraging discussion we’ll be returning to again and again.
