Pt 2 | Three Words Every Mom Needs to Hear - Let It Count. (feat. Tori Benham)

Pt 1 | Fatherhood Built on Belief (feat. Jeff Zaugg & Ben Cooley)

What if the most important thing you can do as a dad has nothing to do with how much you provide — and everything to do with how present you are?  Father's Day is right around the corner, and we're doing something a little different. Today Dan sits down with two men who are thinking deeply about what it means to be a great dad — Jeff Zaugg, founder of Dad Awesome and father to four girls, and Ben Cooley, co-founder of an anti-slavery organization and father to a blended family of ten kids.  This conversation is honest, funny, and surprisingly profound. Jeff shares what happened when he opened a feedback loop with his daughters and one of them told him something that broke his heart wide open. Ben shares what it looks like to parent out of his own healing — and why the greatest fathering shift he ever made was stopping trying to be the big brother in the parable and starting to be the father on the porch, ready to run.  We talk about the questions that actually get your kids past a simple "fine," why sitting in the hard stuff with your children might be the most powerful thing you ever do, and what it looks like to build rhythms in your home that point your family toward Jesus — even when you're only hitting them 70% of the time.  Heart toward heaven. Heart toward home. That's where it starts.  Join us online! 🧡 askaboutmyfaith.com [https://www.askaboutmyfaith.com/]  💙 facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith]  💜 instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith/] Wherever you are in your faith journey, you’re welcome here!

Pt 2 | You Cannot Embrace Your Mission Without Humility (feat. Thann Bennett)

What if the mission God gave you was never meant to build your reputation — but to reflect His? In part two with Thann Bennett, we pick right back up where we left off — and the conversation just keeps getting better. Thann is the author of My Fame, His Fame, co-founder of A Fearless Life ministry, and a man God asked to turn around and face the people instead of the systems.  We talk about humility and why it's not the opposite of strength — it actually requires it. We get into The Equipped, Thann's weekly podcast built around truth and beauty, and why bracketing hard news stories with those two things is one of the most practical ways to stay grounded as a Jesus follower in a noisy world.  Thann also shares the story behind A Fearless Life — a nonprofit he and his wife founded to find and fund a family for every adoption-eligible foster child in America. And he walks us through a moment in a secular foster care training where a neuroscience study about neglected children became one of the clearest pictures he's ever seen of why connection to a Creator isn't optional — it's everything.  And he reminds every listener what their kids and their calling and their corner of the world all have in common: they need someone who knows whose they are, who's willing to be strong and courageous, and who's ready to do the work.

Pt 1 | Your Identity Is Not About You — It's About Him (feat. Thann Bennett)

Your identity in Christ was never meant to be about you. And that's actually the most freeing thing you'll ever hear.  That's the message Thann Bennett has been carrying for years — and in this conversation, he unpacks it in a way that is both deeply rooted in Scripture and completely practical for everyday life. Thann is the author of My Fame, His Fame, a speaker, former public policy leader, and co-founder of ministries serving foster and adoptive families. He grew up in a family shaped by a father who broke a generational curse — a man who lost both parents at age eight and chose a different legacy. And Thann has spent his life paying that forward. Today in part one, we dig into identity — what it means to be a child of the King, why the pressure lifts the moment you stop trying to build your own name, and why the mission God calls you to can never be fully walked out without the foundation of belief underneath it. We also talk about obedience — the decade-long argument Thann had with God about writing, the April morning he finally said yes, and the nine weeks that changed everything.  It's not about you. It's about the One who formed you for Himself. And when that truth finally settles in — everything else starts to fall into place.  Join us online! 🧡 askaboutmyfaith.com [https://www.askaboutmyfaith.com/]  💙 facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith]  💜 instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith/] Wherever you are in your faith journey, you’re welcome here!

Pt 2 | Prayer Changes Everything – Here’s How to Actually Do It (feat. Rheanna Arfsten)

What if prayer wasn't something you did at set times throughout the day — but something you carried with you into every moment of it? Rheanna Arfsten is back for part two, and this conversation goes somewhere really good. Rheanna co-leads Freedom Culture and the Occupy Freedom Ministry with her husband Justin, and today she's opening up about something deeply practical and deeply personal — the power of prayer. Not prayer as a religious duty or a last resort when things fall apart. Prayer as a living, breathing connection to the Holy Spirit that runs underneath everything else you do.  We talk about what it actually looks like to pray continuously — and why it's less about finding the right words and more about inclining your heart toward God throughout your entire day. Rheanna shares practical ways to start building that muscle. And she tells two stories — one involving a lost action figure in a Super Target and one involving cookies and a neighbor — that will make you want to start listening for the Holy Spirit in the smallest moments of your life.  She also closes with an encouragement that is equal parts honest and convicting: do it when it's hard. Do it anyway. Even when you have nothing to say. Especially then.  Join us online! 🧡 askaboutmyfaith.com [https://www.askaboutmyfaith.com/]  💙 facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith]  💜 instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith/] Wherever you are in your faith journey, you’re welcome here!

Pt 1 | The More You Look at Him the Less Everything Else Controls You (feat. Rheanna Arfsten)

What does it look like to raise your kids with eternity in view — when most days feel anything but eternal? That's the question Rheanna Arfsten has been sitting with for years of motherhood. And the answer she's found is both simpler and deeper than most of us expect. It starts with where your eyes are looking.  Rheanna is the co-founder of Freedom Culture and the Occupy Freedom Ministry, a two-time bestselling author, and a homeschooling mom of four who came to faith at 22 with no church background and a painful childhood behind her. God has used every single part of it.  In part one of this conversation, Rheanna shares what inspired her book Raising Nations — and why it's not really a parenting book at all. It's about the eternal substance being built in you as you raise your kids. The transformation that happens not when everything goes right, but when you fix your gaze on God in the middle of everything that doesn't.  We talk about the ski instructor analogy from Colossians 3 that reframed how she thinks about daily life, the morning practice that carried her through her heaviest seasons, and why she believes the greatest gift you can give your kids isn't a perfect mom — it's a mom who keeps pointing them toward a perfect God.  This one ends with a prayer that is worth every minute of the conversation that led up to it.  Join us online! 🧡 askaboutmyfaith.com [https://www.askaboutmyfaith.com/]  💙 facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.facebook.com/askaboutmyfaith]  💜 instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith [https://www.instagram.com/askaboutmyfaith/] Wherever you are in your faith journey, you’re welcome here!
