For us, the message of truly what it means to be famous at home is recognizing, like, this is the one place that I am irreplaceable.

My role in this family, you can't just sub me out, whereas all of the things, all of the accolades that the world puts out there.

And for mom and dad, too, like we're talking about kids and,

you know, activities and such. What about mom and dad? Like, all of us are chasing something.

Some good insights from Christy Straub about making your marriage and family a priority,

especially today when the culture calls us away from the home. Spend more time and money and attention away from

our family. Christy and her husband, Dr. Josh Straub, are back with us today on Focus on the Family with

Jim Daly, and I'm John Fuller. Last time we shared a brilliant conversation with Josh and Christi

about what it means to be famous at home. I love it, but you kind of can scratch your head going, okay, what does that mean?

Being famous at home.

And we don't often think that way because in this modern era, we believe fame and accolades come from

everywhere else, not from home.

Maybe your career or friends or social media, all of that.

But spending time at home with your family is the bright spot of the day.

I remember coming home from focus.

I'd meet with presidents and senators and all that.

And I'd get home and, man, I love the boys running out, grabbing each of my legs and me kind of

doing the monster walk into the house and then we have a tickle fest and all that good

stuff. I felt the best being in our living room playing with the boys. And, you know, hopefully

you feel that way too. And if you're not in that spot, we've got resources to help you. Josh

and Christy have great advice and encouragement in their book, Famous at Home,

seven decisions to put your family center stage in a world competing for your time, attention, and identity.
