| 1/12/26 |  #134 – When Home is Chaos with Scarlet Hiltibidal | Adam and Cassie sit down with author Scarlet Hiltibidal to talk about Hopefulish, why sadness is a normal part of the Christian life, and how the gospel meets parents right in the middle of disorder. | — | ||||||
| 1/5/26 |  OQ - How Do You Help Your Kids Be Ready to Be Uncool or Rejected? | Following Jesus has never been the cool option—and that’s something our kids need to be ready for. In this One Question episode, Adam and Chelsea talk about how to disciple kids who aren’t ruled by popularity, approval, or the fear of man. They unpack how to make being “different” normal and why closeness to God matters more than being liked. | — | ||||||
| 12/29/25 |  #133 — Gospel Centered Youth Ministry with Cameron Cole and Anna Meade Harris | Parenting teenagers can feel overwhelming—especially in a noisy, over-scheduled, screen-filled world. Cameron Cole and Anna Meade Harris from Rooted Ministry join us to talk about discipling adolescents with grace, clarity, and patience, and why parents still matter more than any algorithm or trend. They also dig into loneliness, technology, late-night conversations, and how churches can better support families (especially single parents). | — | ||||||
| 12/22/25 |  OQ - What If Our Kids Resent Us For Our Family Discipleship? | Many parents worry their kids will resent them for being intentional about faith. In this one-question episode, Adam and Chelsea challenge that fear and invite parents to trust God with the results of faithful discipleship. | — | ||||||
| 12/15/25 |  #132 — Navigating Sports with Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski | Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie sit down with Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski to talk honestly about winning, idolatry, sideline behavior, and how sports can become one of the most powerful discipleship tools in your family if you let it. | — | ||||||
| 12/8/25 |  OQ - How Do You Balance Work and Home? | Adam and Chelsea talk candidly about “work-life balance” and how easy it is to give our best at work while giving our families what’s left over. They discuss why family discipleship can feel less urgent but is infinitely more important, and how to reorder our loves so that our best energy goes to the people God has entrusted to us. | — | ||||||
| 12/1/25 |  #131 — Parenting in a Generation of Gender Confusion with Kathy Koch | Dr. Kathy Koch joins us to help parents disciple kids with confidence in God’s good design. We talk about why identity confusion is rising, how to start age-appropriate conversations at home, and practical ways churches can equip families—anchored in Scripture like Genesis 1, Psalm 139, and Ephesians 2. You’ll leave with hopeful, doable steps for shaping character and pointing your kids to Christ in a confusing culture. | — | ||||||
| 11/17/25 |  #130 — In the Linne Home with Shai Linne | Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie sit down with Shai Linne to talk family worship—how simple, steady rhythms (read, sing, pray) form kids for life, and how music and stories can plant gospel truth deep in young hearts. Shai shares the heart behind his album Jesus Kids, the allegory Penelope Judd, and why he and Blair take a family-worship micro-conference on the road to equip churches and parents.Resources Mentioned:Shai Linne – Jesus Kids (album)Penelope Judd (children’s book by Shai Linne)God Made Me AND You (children’s book by Shai Linne)The Family Worships (micro-conference info)The Jesus Storybook Bible (Sally Lloyd-Jones)Slugs & Bugs (kids’ music) Let this Mother’s Day be a reminder that she deserves care, too.

| 11/3/25 |  #129 - Paul and Titus for Parents with Courtney Doctor and Hunter Beless | Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie welcome Courtney Doctor (TGC) and Hunter Beless (Journeywomen) to talk discipleship vs. mentorship, their new Titus study, and how “life-on-life” relationships shape homes and churches. They hit family-level application (parents as primary disciple-makers), theological triage, and practical rhythms like Bible study in community and gospel-centered conversations. | — | ||||||
| 10/20/25 |  #128 - How to Lead Your Home with Dr. Joel Beeke | Adam interviews Dr. Joel Beeke on biblical headship and his new book How to Lead Your Family, unpacking a father’s roles as prophet, priest, and king in the home. | — | ||||||
| 10/13/25 |  OQ: How Does Your Family Handle Technology? | Adam shares the Griffin family’s simple playbook: no phones for the kids, no social media, tight filters on computers/TV, Kindles with internet off, and zero YouTube on the TV. Tools help, but the bigger goal is discipling hearts to love what’s good—and adding real accountability in community. | — | ||||||
| 10/6/25 |  #127 - When Families Fight | Family conflict is normal, but harshness only “wins” in the moment and wounds in the long run. Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie show how Christlike gentleness—firm, kind, and restorative—can cool tempers, set wise boundaries, and actually heal relationships. From triage metaphors to Jesus restoring Peter, this is a simple path to fighting less and loving more.Resources Mentioned:Good News for Parents by Adam GriffinMatthew 18:15–20Proverbs 15:1John 21:1–192 Timothy 3:1–5Hebrews 12:11 Let this Mother’s Day be a reminder that she deserves care, too.

| 9/22/25 |  #126 - What Could Possibly Go Wrong? (Everything!) | From silly phobias to real panic, fear shows up in parenting all the time. Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie talk about crowds, kids going missing for a minute, and the dread of what could happen when we’re not there. Then they walk us into Scripture—Isaiah’s “fear not,” Jesus lifting Peter out of the waves, the father begging, “help my unbelief,” and a God who literally carries His people. This one’s practical, honest, and full of grace for moms and dads who need to breathe and remember: our kids—and our hearts—are in stronger hands. | — | ||||||
| 9/8/25 |  #125 - Getting Bitter | Life as a parent (and just as a human) can hand you plenty of reasons to grow bitter — disappointments, unanswered prayers, hurt from others. In this conversation, Adam, Chelsea, and Cassie talk honestly about how bitterness creeps in and why it’s so dangerous for our hearts, families, and churches. They share personal stories, unpack what the Bible says about forgiving like Jesus, and offer practical ways to choose joy over resentment. If you’ve been carrying around some spiritual “junk mail” marked bitterness, this episode is an invitation to throw it out for good. | — | ||||||
