Summary

I am so happy to be back with another monthly podcast episode covering highlights from my book, Raising Amazing: Bringing up Kids Who Love God, Like Their Family, and Do the Dishes Without Being Asked! Today we get to cover Chapter Seven: How we can make our homes the hub -- a welcoming place for our kids…and their friends. Many of us have always imagined having a home that our kids love to be in, and a place their friends might want to gather in as well. Yet, making the idea become a reality can feel elusive…How do we practically create an environment that is welcoming and attractive to our kids and their friends? Do we need the best house with the coolest games and gadgets? How can we compete with technology and get kids to want to hang out with their family?In today’s episode I’m answering all these questions and more. I think you’ll be encouraged and feel equipped to make your home the hub for your kids as well! Also fun bonus: Luke comes on to share his "thoughts" from Chapter 7 of Raising Amazing as well!
