Artificial intelligence isn’t just changing how our kids learn—it’s changing how they think.In this powerful conversation, Meeke Addison interviews Dr. Renton Rathbun about how Christian parents should respond to AI and prepare their children to use technology without surrendering their God-given ability to think, discern, and bear His image.Dr. Rathbun explains why AI isn’t merely a research tool, but a system that increasingly does the thinking for us—and why this shift poses serious risks for children who are still forming habits of concentration, reasoning, and wisdom.You’ll learn:Why AI is fundamentally different from earlier technologies like GoogleHow algorithms shape what information our children see—and don’t seeWhy knowledge is not the same as dataThe core thinking skills Christian parents must intentionally cultivateHow raising good thinkers is essential to raising faithful image-bearers🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.⁠⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Many churches know how to attract children and teens—but are we truly discipling them?In this powerful excerpt from the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, host Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to discuss one of the most pressing issues facing the church today: the rise of the attraction-entertainment model in children’s and youth ministry.Dr. Mulvihill explains why fun and games, paired with “Bible-lite” teaching, fail to prepare kids for the real spiritual challenges they face—and why parents, not pastors, are ultimately responsible for their children’s discipleship. Together, they explore the critical difference between the roles of parent as steward and pastor as shepherd, and why core doctrines and apologetics must be taught from the youngest ages.If you’re a Christian parent, homeschool family, pastor, or church leader, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what faithful discipleship truly looks like.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.⁠⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

What does artificial intelligence mean for Christian parenting—and for our children’s spiritual formation?In this powerful conversation, Meeke Addison sits down with Dr. Renton Rathbun to explore a theology of AI and how emerging technologies like ChatGPT may be quietly reshaping the way our children think, reason, and make moral decisions.Dr. Rathbun explains why AI doesn’t just assist us—it can replace essential image-bearing work that God designed humans to do. Drawing from Colossians 3:10 and Ephesians 4:24, he unpacks how knowledge, righteousness, and holiness are central to what it means to be made in the image of God—and why outsourcing those functions to AI is spiritually dangerous.Christian parents and homeschool families will learn:Why thinking is not neutralHow AI can subtly shape moral reasoningWhat it means to guard our children’s image-bearing workHow to prepare kids to engage AI wisely without surrendering discernmentThis is a must-watch discussion for Christian parents navigating technology, education, and discipleship in the age of artificial intelligence.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.⁠⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

What does the Bible actually say about children’s and youth ministry—and how did the modern, age-segmented church model come to be?In this clip from the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, host Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to explore the history of children’s and youth ministry in the church, tracing its roots from the early church through the Reformation, the Industrial Revolution, and into today’s professionalized, age-based programs.Together, they discuss:When and why children were separated from corporate worshipHow catechism and family discipleship shaped early faith formationThe rise of youth culture and parachurch ministriesWhy the church invests more resources than ever in kids’ programsWhat could change if churches focused more on equipping parentsThis conversation challenges modern assumptions and invites parents, pastors, and church leaders to reconsider how faith is formed—first and foremost—in the home.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Artificial intelligence is changing our world faster than most parents realize—and our children are already being shaped by it.In this powerful conversation, Meeke Addison interviews Dr. Renton Rathbun on how Christian parents should respond to AI and prepare their children to engage with technology without losing critical thinking, biblical discernment, or their identity as image-bearers of God.Dr. Rathbun explains why AI is not neutral, how it subtly carries a worldview, and why Christians must develop a theology of technology instead of reacting too late—just as many families did with smartphones and the internet.This episode challenges parents to think deeply about:How AI affects critical thought and decision-makingWhy technology always carries a worldviewWhat it means to protect our children’s image-bearing workHow Christian families can respond biblically instead of fearfullyIf you are a Christian parent, homeschooler, or educator, this is a conversation you cannot afford to ignore.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Christian parents often assume their church’s children and youth ministries are solid—but what if that assumption is wrong?In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella talks with Dr. Josh Mulvihill, executive director of Church and Family Ministry at Renew a Nation, about why parents must be actively discerning about what their kids are being taught at church. They discuss troubling research on biblical worldview among children’s pastors, the dangers of outsourcing discipleship, and why curriculum alone is not enough.Dr. Mulvihill challenges parents to know:What curriculum their church usesWhether leaders actually hold a biblical worldviewIf teachers are living out their faith beyond Sunday morningThis conversation is not about fear—it’s about responsibility. Parents are called to shepherd their children’s hearts and minds, even (and especially) within the church.👉 Key takeaway: If you’re sending your kids to children’s or youth ministry, you need to be involved, informed, and discerning.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Homeschool moms often feel an unspoken pressure to do everything—every class, every sport, every opportunity—just to prove they’re not failing their children.In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella and Kristi Clover talk candidly about the lies moms believe about busyness, enrichment, and success—and how those lies quietly steal peace, family time, and spiritual focus.They remind us of a freeing truth: God never called parents to provide everything—only a firm foundation rooted in Him.If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying no…If you’ve wondered whether you’re “doing enough”…If your family calendar feels fuller than your heart…This conversation will encourage you to step back, pray for discernment, and replace pressure with peace.👉 Key topics discussed:The pressure homeschool moms feel to “prove themselves”Why busyness is one of Satan’s most effective toolsThe lie that parents must provide every opportunityDiscerning why we say yes—or noReclaiming family time, faith, and peace⁠⁠👉 Watch this full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast.⁠⁠Ready to join the homeschool revolution?⁠⁠⁠Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your FREE Homeschool Survival Kit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
