E0016: Does God Command Us to Have Kids?

In this episode of On The Way, I talk about a question that many people wrestle with: does God actually command Christians to have children? This conversation led me to spend time in Scripture, looking at what God really says about it. While the Bible shows that humanity is called to be fruitful and multiply, it also makes clear that this is not necessarily an individual command for every person. At the same time, children are consistently described as a blessing, something to be valued and welcomed. As the New Testament is considered, there is also a strong focus on spiritual fruitfulness, reminding us that life is meant to reflect God and build His kingdom in different ways. I also take time to speak to those who are single or walking through seasons of childlessness, because this is not about pressure or comparison, but about understanding God’s design for each life. Ultimately, I share why this may not be a direct command, but is still something deeply encouraged, especially when thinking about the impact of passing faith on to the next generation. My hope with this episode is to encourage you to think about this from a biblical perspective, to pray about it, and to trust God with whatever calling He has placed on your life.

E0015: Raising Digitally Wise Kids (Not Digitally Fearful Parents)

On this week’s episode of On The Way, I’m joined by Melvin from Parent ProTech for a conversation about parenting, technology, and the role our faith plays in how we lead our families today. In a world that is constantly influencing our kids, we talk about what it looks like to stay grounded and intentional as parents We get into the importance of being proactive, setting clear boundaries, and creating space for honest, ongoing conversations with our kids. But more than that, this episode is about remembering that we are called to disciple our children, not just protect them. We also talk about trusting God through the process, especially when we feel uncertain or behind. Parenting is not about perfection, it is about being faithful with what God has entrusted to us. I hope this episode encourages you to lead with confidence, to stay rooted in your faith, and to continue showing up for your family with purpose.

E0014: A Conversation With My Dad, Fatherhood, Faithfulness & Legacy

On this episode of On the Way, I had the privilege of sitting down with my dad to talk about intentional parenting, spiritual leadership, and the responsibility we have to guide our families in a culture that is constantly shaping the next generation. We discuss what it means to lead rather than react, to build our homes on biblical truth, and to approach difficult conversations with clarity and courage. We talk about the importance of being present, consistent, and rooted in Christ as we disciple our children. This conversation is about preparation, conviction, and faithfulness. It is about choosing to step up as parents and leaders, trusting that God equips us with the wisdom we need. My hope is that this episode challenges you, strengthens you, and encourages you to lead your home with purpose and confidence.

E0013: Talking to your kids about porn, sex, and holiness in a digital world

In this episode of On the Way, I talk about how parents can approach difficult conversations with their children in a thoughtful and faith filled way. Rather than reacting out of fear or shame, this episode is about preparation, discipleship, and leading with wisdom. We explore why waiting too long to have important conversations can leave children unprepared, and why parents are called to lead with clarity, curiosity, and grace. I also share a biblical vision for sexuality that is rooted in covenant, dignity, and love, reminding us that God’s design is redemptive and life giving. This conversation offers practical encouragement for ongoing, age appropriate discipleship at home, along with the reminder that boundaries are meant to protect, not punish. Most importantly, this episode points to the hope of the gospel. God’s grace is greater than any mistake, and redemption is always possible through Christ.

E0012: Idolizing your phone

In this episode of On The Way, I’m starting the year with an important conversation that affects every parent and every home. Our phones and the role technology plays in our daily lives. We talk about why phone use is not just a discipline or habit issue, but a spiritual one, and how technology and social media can slowly take the place of God in our hearts if we are not careful. Through Scripture, I share how idolatry is about replacing the Creator with created things and why our attention, worship, and devotion matter. I hope this episode challenges you and encourages you as you start this year with clarity and intention. My desire is that this conversation helps you reflect on what holds your attention, how you are leading in your home, and how to be more present with the people God has entrusted to you. May it serve as a reminder to keep Jesus at the center and continue walking faithfully on the way.
