Summary

The everyday mundane has a knack for keeping us comfortable. Before long, we forget to take risks, do something out of our comfort zone, or prioritize activities that actually bring us life. That's why we felt it fitting for the final episode of our Words That Matter for Your Family series to end with the word "adventure." When was the last time your family did something adventurous?

In this episode, we talk about:

How thinking, feeling, and relating all at the same time influences brain growth
The reward of saying "yes" to a hobby, risk, or decision that challenges you
How "adventure" helps your kids internalize their faith and love others well
The relationship between having fun and gaining empathy and how the two go hand-in-hand
