About this episode

The episode features a discussion with Dr. John Cuddeback on the importance of intentionality in parenting and family life.

It was a delight for me to talk today with Dr. John Cuddeback, a man who greatly influenced my thinking of what it means to be a good parent. Dr. Cuddeback is a philosophy professor at Christendom College and he has written an excellent book titled, The Intentional Household. He also developed free courses for fathers and mothers at his LifeCraft website. Our discussion today centers around The Intentional Household, where we discuss such topics as why we must be purposeful in parenting our children, why working together binds a family closer, and how leisure, properly understood, prepares children for living a good life.
