The Discipleship Defined series has helped us picture what discipleship looks like in various context within our daily lives. In this final episode, my guest Adam Griffin and I are going to focus in on the family and the home.
Adam Griffin is a pastor, husband, and dad. His book Family Discipleship is a great resource for all parents no matter your kids age. His brand new podcast, The Family Discipleship Podcast dives deeper into some of these same topics. In his book, Adam helps us see how we can use the big and the small everyday moments as open doors for discipleship and “train our kids in the way they should go.”
In today’s episode he and I talk about what discipleship looks like in the home, developing a Biblical Worldview in our children, and how we can be intentional about our time spent at home and as a family.
