Summary

We first heard about Justin Whitmel Earley’s work years ago. A friend of ours said it had changed the life and practices of her family. We have heard the same countless times from parents since.  We are so excited to have Justin and his wife Lauren on the podcast this week. They talk about Justin’s newest book, Habits of the Household—Practicing the Story of God in Everyday Family Rhythms. And they talk about their own life as a family, what they’ve learned and who they’re becoming both individually and together. We’re so honored to have had time with them and know you’ll love this insightful and inspiring conversation.  . . . . .
