The 4:12 Podcast

Kids, Sports, and Church (Ep. 017)

For many families, life feels nonstop. Practices. Games. Tournaments. School schedules. Travel teams. And somewhere in the middle of it all is a question many Christian parents wrestle with: How do we balance kids’ sports and church without losing what matters most? In our latest episode of the 412 Podcast, we have an honest conversation about youth sports, Sunday gatherings, family priorities, and discipleship. This isn’t an anti-sports conversation. We believe sports can teach discipline, teamwork, perseverance, and character in powerful ways. But we also believe the way we structure our lives is shaping our children more than we realize. What sits at the center of your family’s rhythm? That’s really the question. Whether you’re navigating travel sports, packed schedules, or simply trying to lead your family faithfully, this episode is designed to encourage you—not condemn you. Watch the full episode on YouTube or listen to the full podcast today. We hope it helps you think wisely, lead intentionally, and keep Jesus at the center of your home. -- Restoration Church is a Southlake, Texas based authentic, Gospel-centered church community focused on loving God, loving others, and making disciples everywhere.

Theological Triage (Ep. 016)

We're talking about theological triage, what doctrines fit into what level of importance, and what that tells us about whether we should call that church an Orthodox church, or whether we should not be a part of that fellowship, though it is a Christian church, or whether we should just agree to disagree on the particular doctrine. We hope you find this helpful. -- About the 4:12 Podcast: Ephesians 4:12 says the Lord gave leaders "to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ."
