Summary

Adam Griffin, Cassie Bryant, and Chelsea Griffin kick off Season 3 talking about how we are called to countercultural parenting and what that looks like.Questions Covered in This Episode:
  • What did you do with your summer?
  • What is our theme this season?
  • Are you seeing families struggling with being different from the culture in your church?
  • Is being countercultural different now than it used to be?
  • What are the topics and subjects that come to mind when you think about being different than the culture?
  • Are you seeing anything in youth culture that is concerning?
  • There are a lot of aspects of Christianity that are not culturally normal. How do those things affect our parenting?
  • One of the verses that come to mind for me on this is Romans 12:2. How does that apply to us as parents?
  • Why do you think people are so tempted to be ashamed of the gospel we believe?
  • Who comes to mind for y’all when you think about someone who showed you how to be countercultural well?
  • How can parents know when and how to say “no”?
  • How do we parent counterculturally without kids or parents villainizing people that believe differently than us? How do we keep our commitment to loving?
  • How is the sifting of the church good for the church?
Helpful Definitions:
  • Countercultural: There is a course to this world, a wide path to destruction; that we are called to walk differently than. Then scriptures would call us to walk a narrow path that leads to life. A path that follows Christ as the way, truth, and the life, and that will make us different.

Of course, the woman who dances to her own beat, my wife, Mrs. Chelsea Griffin. How are you doing today, Chelsea? Well, see, that feels like an attack on on my sense of rhythm. And you're clapping? Yes, but I can't tap on B unless someone is clapping above their head at a concert, but that person is so clutch for me. This is great.
