Vacations with kids are rarely picture-perfect—but they’re almost always unforgettable. In this episode, we share hilarious and heartfelt stories from our own family getaways, from lost children and jellyfish stings to broken bones and rainstorms. We talk about why these trips matter, how they shape our relationships, and how to protect time to simply be present together.

In this episode, we share the story of when Eric felt led to attend seminary (with 5 kids and a full time job!)-- a step taken in faith, full of questions and uncertainty about what would come next. We talk about the fear that often comes with big decisions and how, over time, we learn to trust God in the unknown. For anyone sensing a quiet prompt to take a leap of faith, even without all the answers, we hope this conversation encourages you to say "yes." When we follow the Lord's lead, the outcome is often more meaningful than anything we could plan for ourselves.

What does it mean to be a "successful" parent? In this episode, we wrestle with that question, share how we're learning to love our kids through the hard moments, and talk about why grace and perspective matter more than perfection. Parenting is messy and beautiful- and we weren't meant to do it in isolation. We'll talk about the power of community and why having people who encourage and support you on the journey is absolutely essential.
