Safety: Words That Matter For Your Family

November 17, 2022 By Joshua Straub Leave a Comment

Listen to “Safety: Words that Matter for Your Family” on Spreaker.

This week, we kick off a brand new series called Words that Matter for Your Family. For the next few weeks we’ll be talking about words that better help us show up for our spouse and kids. To begin, we start by talking about the word “safety,” what it is and how we cultivate it.

In this episode Josh and Christi talk about:

  • How to pursue your spouse’s heart using emotional vocabulary
  • The way relational warmth wires your child’s brain for relationships
  • Why posture is more important than technique in parenting
  • How to calm your child’s brain when they are in the midst of fight, flight, or freeze
  • Ways to focus on who you are becoming as an adult

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.
