In this conversation, they cover: - The difference between being a "parent" and being a true father or mother, and why it matters more than we think - How grandfathers carry a unique, God-designed power to speak identity into teenagers that even parents can't replicate - The seven blessings every grandfather can give, and why it's never too late to start - What cultural patriarchy got wrong, and what biblical fatherhood actually looks like - Why the men in our prisons almost universally share one thing in common - Nick's daughter Ligon, her journals, and how her words have traveled the globe since her death - The moment something shifts in a man's soul when he holds his grandchild for the first time Subscribe, share this episode with a father or grandfather in your life, and leave a rating or review wherever you listen.

#38 - Panning for Gold with Sandy Barker

What do you do when God doesn't answer the prayer you've been praying with everything you have? Sandy Barker knows that place. When her firstborn son Christian was diagnosed with one of the rarest and most aggressive forms of pediatric leukemia at 13 years old, she went to war alongside him for 20 months. She researched, she advocated, she prayed, she fought. And she also wrestled, doubted, and fell apart. This episode doesn't shy away from any of that.

In this conversation they cover: - What it was like the day Christian was diagnosed and how Sandy trusted God to equip her in real time - The brutal reality of pediatric cancer treatment and why the funding and research are dangerously behind - How siblings are the forgotten ones in a cancer journey and what families and friends can actually do - Why Sandy's pastor's words after Christian died completely changed how she understood God's compassion - The God winks, hugs, and silver linings that kept showing up even in the darkest moments - How the Gold Rush Cure Foundation was born and what the Pot of Gold program does for kids and siblings across the country - What Sandy would say to anyone angry at God right now 📌 Connect with Sandy: Personal IG: @sandybarker1 Personal Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sandy.g.barker 📌 Gold Rush Cure Foundation: Website: https://goldrushcure.org/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/goldrushcurefoundation/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/goldrushcure 📌 Connect with Kimberly: Roomatthetableforyou@gmail.com If this episode moved you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

#37 - Bread of Life with Alex Cefalu

What happens when a mom of five hits her breaking point and the Lord meets her right there in the mess? Alex Cefalu grew up in a home with no faith, no church, and a front-row seat to divorce. But God planted a believing best friend four houses down, and that quiet, persistent witness was just the beginning. Years later, after five pregnancies, a brutal bout of postpartum anxiety, sleepless nights she couldn't escape, and a season where everything she'd built came to a complete halt, Alex found herself on her knees and finally surrendered. What came out of that wilderness? A thriving sourdough bakery in San Clemente rooted entirely in ministry, a family Bible time that's now been going four years strong, and a faith she'd trade nothing for. In this conversation they cover: - Growing up without faith and what finally started cracking that open - Postpartum anxiety and the sleep obsession cycle that nearly broke her - Why her season of "no" after years of performing for everyone's approval was actually healing - How making communion bread every Sunday quietly became Her Daily Bread Co. - Running a bakery where relationships matter more than selling bread - What it looks like to raise five kids with no phones, no iPads, and nightly Bible time - The Old Testament theme of the promised land that carried her through the hardest year of her life 📌 Find Alex & Her Daily Bread Co.: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/herdailybreadco/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571151740254 Website: https://www.herdailybreadco.com/ Email: herdailybreadco@gmail.com 📌 Connect with Kimberly: Roomatthetableforyou@gmail.com If this episode encouraged you, share it with a friend, leave a review, and follow along so you never miss a conversation. #christianpodcast #faithandfamily #HerDailyBreadCo #postpartumanxiety #sourdoughbread #christianwomen #roomatthetable #KimberlyMilo #breadoflife #faithjourney #SanClemente #christianmom
