Parenting is one of the few God-given responsibilities that changes constantly. The way we parent a five-year-old can’t be the way we parent a fifteen-year-old, and if we do our job well, our children will eventually need no parenting at all. So how do we make that transition well?
In Episode 287, Brandon Briscoe sits down with Pastor Alan Shelby, Dean of the Living Faith Bible Institute, for a practical conversation on the purpose of biblical parenting and the stages that serve it. Pastor Shelby argues that most parents never settle on the goal of parenting, and that without a goal, principles become scattered tactics. His answer: raise children who are prepared to face “the evil day” and to establish godly homes of their own.

Who has enough access to your life to actually help form you? In this episode of the Quit You Like Men series, Jonathan Kindler explores why men were never meant to grow in isolation. Drawing from the relationships of Paul, Barnabas, and Timothy, Jonathan looks at the need for faithful men ahead of us, brothers beside us, and men coming behind us. Through scripture, personal stories, and reflections on mentorship, friendship, correction, and discipleship, this episode challenges men to move beyond simply consuming information and into relationships where their actual lives can be seen, shaped, and strengthened.
