Summary

A couple weeks ago Josh interviewed Christi about her experiences with motherhood, healing, and finding her voice. This week, roles reverse and Christi interviews Josh about his experiences with fatherhood, honor, and how he's learned to cast vision for his family. This conversation was unscripted and heartfelt, as Christi asks questions that get to the heart of how Josh sees his role as a father. Josh shares about:

The reasons it's important to honor up to previous generations and pass blessing down to the next generation
The tension between living in denial and being honest about the holes that were left from your upbringing
The sense of vision that comes from viewing everything you do through the lens of being a father and husband
