About this episode

Two grandfathers share their parenting journeys and insights on balancing authority and influence in their children's lives.

How do you balance authority and influence in your kid’s life? Should we always protect our kids from disappointment? Parenting is all about asking these tough questions. In this podcast two grandfathers share their stories and the lessons they’ve learned about life and faith from their own parenting journeys. We talk about what it’s like to raise kids through every stage and then how everything changes when your kids start having kids. They share their greatest joys and deepest struggles from the first time you hold your child to becoming friends with your kids and every moment in between. In every stage, dads can learn and grow with their kids, building healthy relationships with their family and with God. Whether you’re deep in the parenting trenches, you’re trying to build a relationship with your adult children, or you just want to love and support the dads in your life - there’s something for everyone in this episode.
