How To Solve The Male Leadership Crisis In Our Young Men

God is a good Father who uses holidays and festivals to disciple His children all throughout the Old Testament. But for some reason these have been lost in modern Christianity.  Now, we don't HAVE to celebrate these holidays, Christ fulfills them all, BUT we've found over the past 10+ years that they are a POWERFUL tool to disciple our kids, follow God more closely, and build deep memories that impact us, our kids, and our communities for a lifetime. Here's why we like celebrating them, and a quick reminder that our Accelerator is open to join right now for September, where we'll be giving you a full "how to" so you can celebrate your first Biblical holiday - Sukkot - this October without any stress!

I want to show you why celebrating a week outside in a handmade booth becomes the most unforgettable family tradition - without feeling like a chore. We’re joined by community coaches Brent and Katie Kruithoff, who previously helped us learn to celebrate spring holidays like Passover and Pentecost. This time, they share how the fall Biblical festival of Sukkot became a unifying, joy-filled anchor for their family’s yearly rhythm. We also unpack the beautiful theology behind Sukkot: dwelling outside reminds us that “this earth is not our home,” pointing our eyes to our true forever home with God in heaven. Ready to reimagine how your family marks time? Tune in to be inspired, equipped, and excited to build traditions that echo into eternity - and learn how to start small, stay consistent, and celebrate big.

Jeremy reacts to a viral Tweet explaining the difference between a mom's conservative and liberal child. He explains why we needed to invent some moral framework for society after Christian ethics were broadly discarded, and why our culture is suddenly anti-life after choosing "consent" as the moral framework. This new "religion" doesn't value life, and is leading to the sterilization of the next generation. Seriously consider what you can do about it as he explains at the end of the episode.

This is a question we get asked often. How do I introduce/share/read the Bible to my family? Sharing the Bible with your kids is extremely important, but in such a busy world, it's often one of the things that gets pushed to the backburner. We highly recommend putting some real time and energy into this...not many things are more important. This is part 1 (the Pryor family experience with younger and older kids). Part 2 comes next week when the Akrami family will give us their best tips.

One of the most common questions I get is, "how do we raise our kids who aren't entitled...especially if we've had success in some aspects of life?" And it makes sense. Most of us are who we are because of the struggles we've had to endure to get here. We value what we have, we aren't entitled. But...so many kids (and adults) these days are. Why? It turns out there's one very basic (but countercultural) thing you can do that will allow you to bless your kids to the moon and back without them becoming entitled. Listen in as Jeremy and April teach us how to make sure our kids turn out like the Sea of Galilee (abundant, full of life), not the Dead Sea (salty and dead!). On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 3:23 The one move that ensures your kids will not become entitled, no matter how much you bless them 11:43 Answering the biggest critique 23:49 What it's like having your daughters embrace motherhood right away 32:21 "It is as it should be."

What if you could take the most chaotic thing in your life and turn it into something that actually creates peace in your home? This month in the Family Teams Accelerator, we're talking about how to use this one unexpected tool usually found in the most boring parts of a business, to turn chaos into clarity at home. That tool? Standar Operating Procedures (SOPs). This is how you train your kids to do what you want them to do. It's how you lead them into actually rising to the level of high expectations. It's how you take the chaos and uncertainty out of teaching them how to behave and how to perform the tasks you want them to perform. And it's way simpler than you think (otherwise there's no way we'd do it!). In this episode Jeremy sits down with Blake and Chandler Smith, next month's community coaches inside the Accelerator, to give you a taste of what's to come. Make sure to sign up to join us in the Accelerator this month to get help applying this in your home: https://courses.familyteams.com/accelerator On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 3:55 SOPs are not just boring business things 7:58 Embracing work tools in the home? 14:00 Example SOP (Getting The Kids Ready To Go And In The Car) 19:22 The importance of practice and drills 24:12 Should you really introduce SOPs into your home?

It's the problem we see most often...an active, engaged mom who's trying to lead the family, and a passive dad who's abdicated his leadership. This does NOT work. Mom MUST use her gifts to complementarily help Dad lead. Dad MUST step up and start leading. This shared vision is crucial for family culture and how your kids (and marriage) turn out. Jeremy and April break this idea down by reacting to a couple of clips that show the importance of dad leading for the greater, common good. This will challenge you, but after so many years helping so many families, this is THE way to build your family, because it is GOD'S way to build your family.
