About this episode

This episode discusses the deeper need for belonging in family relationships beyond mere proximity.

Many parents dream about living close to their adult children and grandchildren, imagining spontaneous visits and a deep family connection. But what happens when moving closer doesn't actually create the relationships we hoped for? In this episode of Facing the Dark , Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore the deeper need beneath proximity: belonging. Together, they discuss how grandparents, their adult children, and grandchildren can build relationships rooted not in obligation but in purpose and genuine delight. If you've ever wrestled with family expectations or maintaining meaningful multi generational relationships, this conversation offers biblical wisdom and practical encouragement.
