Kari and Cody Carnes join Levi and Jennie for a heartwarming and joy-filled conversation about faith, family, and the unexpected moments that shape their journey. From their son Kingston’s incredible story of stepping onto the worship stage at just six years old to Canyon’s thoughtful spiritual depth, this episode paints a beautiful picture of raising kids in ministry while keeping family at the center.
The couples also share hilarious and awe-inspiring adventures—from Glacier National Park hikes without snacks or water (thank God for angelic cliff bar encounters!) to bear sightings and summer nights in Montana. Along the way, they dive into songwriting, the upcoming Passion tour, what God is teaching them through Scripture and prayer, and why pure worship matters more than ever.
