Summary

Following Jesus has never been the cool option—and that’s something our kids need to be ready for. In this One Question episode, Adam and Chelsea talk about how to disciple kids who aren’t ruled by popularity, approval, or the fear of man. They unpack how to make being “different” normal and why closeness to God matters more than being liked. Let this Mother’s Day be a reminder that she deserves care, too.
