Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast.

Our goal here is to help your family become a multi-generational team on mission by providing you with biblically rooted concepts, tools, and rhythms.

Your hosts are Jeremy Pryor and Jefferson Bethke, and this season is all about crafting a family-friendly day of rest.

We'll talk about the biblical idea of Sabbath, hear

testimonies from different families, and also discuss practical ways to do this with kids. Make sure

you give us a follow so you don't miss out on future episodes.

All right guys, well, we are here to talk about the progression of the prior family in this thing called our Shabbat or our Sabbath, particularly the meal, but we'll probably dip into a couple of areas of how we did our day of rest.

But this definitely evolved. And so probably

one of the biggest things that families say to us when we start talking about this is, okay,

that's great. You guys have all these grandparents over. You cook all this nice meat. You're like

have these nice dishes. And you have older kids. But what was it like when, you know, you had little

kids and they were kind of chaotic

and you were trying to get started, that would be actually a lot more helpful because that's

where we're at. And so we want to make sure that we are talking about the whole progression.

And we've been practicing this for, I don't know, maybe 17 years. And so Kelsey, my daughter and April, my wife, we're all here to

try to walk through the timeline of how this happened in our family. So Kelsey and April,

thanks for joining me today. Welcome. So as you guys look back, maybe Kelsey, I'll start with you and then we'll, what's your

earliest memory of like when we started doing Shabbat?

What's kind of, how far back does that go for you?

So I remember when we were at the brick house.

So I was in like kindergarten to second grade in that house.

And I remember going to a department store.
