Summary

In celebration of my first children’s book, Any Day Emotions, we’re focusing on Family and Parenting over the next few weeks! Today I have an on-air session with Gabe and Rebekah, who’ve been really intentional about creating an environment where no conversation or topic is off limits for their kids.

And that's really been part of where we've seen so much unity, especially with our older kids, as they were moving through those middle school, high school years to feel this security and safety and belonging in our home to where whatever they were walking through,

what is God's view of that versus what my friend's telling me, you know?
