You're listening to the Family Discipleship podcast, a podcast of training the church.

Hey, this is Adam Griffin. I'm here with my co-hosts, first, the lady who always does what she's

supposed to, Mrs. Cassie Bryant. How you doing today, Cassie?

I wish that was true. I wish I did what I always did what I was supposed to. But I

find myself more like Paul. It's like, I do what I shouldn't do. And then I don't know why I do.

Yeah. Same. Yeah. Same. Of course, my lovely wife is also here, the Regent of Righteousness, Mrs. Chelsea Griffin. How are you doing today, Chelsea? Super righteous. Super righteous. Hyper-righteous. Yeah. Is you stand in Christ? I was going to say, yeah, by the blood of Christ. Amen. Only. Amen. Well, you guys are wonderful. Let me kick us off with a little review. we have a couple recent reviews we um i would love to get to all of them but we're not going to

here's one, though, from a dad, guys. This is from a dad. It says, thank you from a dad. He says, I just want to say thank you last year. Our pastor told us about your podcast during a sermon. Guys, we made it into a sermon somewhere. He says, my wife and I have been hooked ever since. Your words encourage us and help us to better disciple our kids. Your blessing to us and our family and have definitely helped my family grow closer to God. Thank you again for what you do. Huh? He's hooked. Yeah, I like that. I mean, I'm hooked. I was from a dad. almost all of our, you know, reviews are from the lady folk. Do you think that you're his pastor? That's awesome. Do you talk about it? Adam has never said it. I know. He almost hides it. I don't really talk about it at churchy here. No, it's not that I hide it. I just don't want. He's a shame.

I feel self-promo-y. It would feel kind of icky. Yeah. To be like, hey, I have a podcast. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I like, I like to keep these things separate. This is a great hobby. And then I have a calling from the Lord to pastor the people of Eastside Community Church. Well, I'm glad somebody mentioned it.

And I'm not embarrassed of it.

And a lot of people at East Side do listen.

Shout out East Side.

Yeah, I think it is part of the way you minister to your people. But yes, you don't ever mention it. I just thought it was funny if you read a review about a guy talking about a sermon and it was your sermon. My pastor Adam Griffin mentioned this. Doing an awesome sermon, like wildly amazing sermon. I'm talking life-changing.

Also mentioned a podcast. Yeah. The only thing worse than that is if you had written that and been like, hey, from a dad. Oh, and then just, oh, no. This got weird. Okay. Well, I'm just glad the pastor mentioned it. That's so great. That's encouraging. Yeah, I hope it is a resource to a lot of churches.

Okay, guys, let's get to the topic of the day.

Let's talk about obedience. The pastor mentioned it. That's so great. That's encouraging. Yeah, I hope it is a resource to a lot of churches.

Okay, guys, let's get to the topic of the day. Let's talk about obedience. This is something I get

asked about a lot. Really, I don't know about you guys. People ask me typically about discipline.

And I want to talk about obedience. People want to talk about spanking. I want to talk about

obedience. People want to talk about timeouts. I want to talk about obedience. People

want to talk about timeouts. I want to talk about obedience. So we can, you know, people,

even whenever we do a Q&A episode, there's always a handful of questions that are about

discipline decisions. But tonight, let's talk about obedience. We're not going to decide how to punish your children, which I know is, I know it.
