How can fathers protect their families without living in fear? What practical steps can you take to become more aware, avoid danger, and respond wisely when situations turn tense?

In Part 2 of this important Fatherhood Friday conversation, the panel welcomes special guest David Lashley, an experienced law enforcement officer and courtroom bailiff, to share real world insights every dad should hear. Drawing from years of professional experience, David discusses situational awareness, recognizing potential threats before they escalate, effective de-escalation techniques, and practical ways fathers can serve as calm, confident protectors of their homes.

This episode is not about paranoia. It is about preparation, wisdom, and embracing the God given responsibility to lead and defend your family with courage and discernment.

Join the Fatherhood Friday panel as they explore what it means to be present, alert, and ready to stand in the gap for those you love.

Theology Debate: Part 3 - FF S2 E7

This podcast is by about the things that are important to dads. Raising good kids. Being good husbands. Keeping up with Star Wars..... you know, the important stuff. And I have 8 kids, so I know important! 

But it is also for the people that care about what the Bible says about raising kids, being a good spouse, influencing the culture, and making a difference that will last even after we pass away.  We want to inspire and equip Christians to engage in the Culture War and impact the next generation by proclaiming Christ!

Yep, I'm a Preacher Dad. And I want my relationship with Jesus Christ to permeate every part of my life, including how I relate to my wife and children. 

He tells me about Himself in the Bible, and I believe Jesus has addressed every part of life in his Word. Let's see if we can find a current issue or family issue where the Bible does not apply. From parenting to politics to preparation...and everything in between! Join me!
