The first episode of my new podcast, Stand Firm Parents, dropped today. I’m stoked about taking what I’ve learned through Stand Firm and applying it to parenting. I’m amazed every time I record an interview for, they never go as I plan. They’re better. I invite guests on for them to make specific points and it never fails I’m thrown for a loop—a good loop. This happens in every episode—even the first.
My first guests are my friends Daphne Kirk and Andrew Kirk. Through their ministry Generation 2 Generation they’re working to reconnect the generations and prepare them ‘for such a time as this.’ You can see why I have connected with them.
I particularly decided to kick off the podcast with the Kirks because I knew they would clearly communicate our mandate as parents to disciple and raise up our children in the Lord. They did just that, but then quickly took it further.
You can check out this first episode here.
They said not only do we have a mandate, but we have an opportunity—an opportunity to raise up the generation that will fulfill the Great Commission.
Let me say that again.
We have the opportunity to raise up the generation that will fulfill the Great Commission!

I imagine you’re like me and desire to see the nations reached and a mighty move of God. Beyond dreaming of such a thing—we can directly disciple the heroes who will fulfill this mission that’s spanned 2,000 years. Our children can be the mighty heroes of faith that do what all generation of believers have dreamed of doing.

I hope you’ll listen to the whole conversation I had with the Kirks.
Better yet I hope you’ll subscribe so you can hear all the great conversations aimed at helping your family have a faith that lasts. Apple users subscribe here. Android users here.
Even better I hope you’ll embrace your opportunity!
My wife and I are trying to do so—please join us.
