Hope for the Parent With a Prodigal

One of the deepest pains a parent can experience is watching their child walk away — from wisdom, from relationship, or even from faith. In this episode of Date Night With The Woods, Tony and Bre talk honestly about the heartbreak many parents quietly carry: the son or daughter who has rejected truth, made destructive choices, or walked away from the faith they were raised in. But this conversation isn’t just about pain — it’s about hope.Register now for the ONE CONFERENCE:https://www.datenightfam.org/oneChat with Bre on Instagram@datenightwiththewoodsFollow Pastor Tony Wood on [email protected] videos, old episodes, blog posts, events, and morewww.datenightfam.org

How do Christian couples handle conflict without damaging their marriage? In this episode, we share a real story from our early years of marriage and discuss what we've learned about conflict, forgiveness, communication, and fighting God's way. Many couples believe conflict is the enemy, but Scripture teaches that unresolved conflict—not conflict itself—is what creates division. When handled biblically, disagreements can actually deepen intimacy, strengthen trust, and bring couples closer together.Register now for the ONE CONFERENCE:https://www.datenightfam.org/oneChat with Bre on Instagram@datenightwiththewoodsFollow Pastor Tony Wood on [email protected] videos, old episodes, blog posts, events, and morewww.datenightfam.org

So many Christians live with an orphan mindset — constantly trying to earn God’s approval — even though Christ already secured it at the cross. This episode is an encouragement to stop striving, return to the cross daily, and rest in the love of the Father. Register now for the ONE CONFERENCE:https://www.datenightfam.org/oneChat with Bre on Instagram@datenightwiththewoodsFollow Pastor Tony Wood on [email protected] videos, old episodes, blog posts, events, and morewww.datenightfam.org
