Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and best-selling author Paul David Tripp connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life.

Every parent, pastor, or mentor longs to be a voice that matters.

But in today's media-saturated culture, lasting influence can feel harder to

grasp than ever. How do we cut through the noise? How do we disciple children and teens in a world

where unbiblical messages are just a tap away? In this third and final session of Voices of

Influence, Paul Tripp offers gospel hope and practical guidance for those seeking to shape

young hearts for Christ amidst cultural chaos.

If you miss the first two sessions, go back and listen to episodes 901 and 902 of the Paul Trip podcast,

or visit Paultrip.com slash voices to stream or download the full series and study guide for use in your home, small group, or church.

Each of these 25-minute sessions is designed to equip you with clarity and conviction

in your God-ordained role as a voice of truth. We pray this series strengthens your confidence

and deepens your calling to influence the next generation for Christ. Here's Paul

lest you misunderstand.

Your children need rules.

They need authority in their life.

But rules lack the power to rescue and transform their hearts.
