Josh recently spoke at the Focus on the Family chapel service about navigating today’s cultural moment as a family. Since so much of what Josh has been trying to live out in his own life was presented in this talk, we wanted to share it with you here on the podcast.

In this episode, Josh talks about:

  • How to live and lead well in a world plagued by fear.
  • The ripple effect of showing up as the best version of yourself.
  • Figuring out and maintaining healthy rhythms in your household.
  • Why being an effective parent has more to do with the person you are becoming than a direct relationship with your child.
  • How the decisions you make today influence more than you realize.

John wrote, “We love because He first loved us” (1 John 4:19, CSB). Our capacity to love and “see” our kids is a reflection of how well we have received love and felt “seen” by others. 
 
When we feel seen, we feel loved. 
When we feel loved, we see others. 
When others feel seen, they feel loved. 
When others feel loved, they see others. 
And the cycle continues. 
 
This is how we build the Kingdom of God—by experiencing the love of a Father who is closer to us than our clothes. 
 
A Father who is compassionate. 
A Father who is gracious. 
A Father who is slow to anger. 
A Father who is abounding in steadfast love.

None of us can live fully alive and “see” others without that security. And your Heavenly Father knows that. Which is why He’s always available.
