Summary



Why do your kids believe what they believe about the world and the purpose of life? Are you equipping them to make good decisions now and in the future when you're no longer there to protect them? Will their knowledge of truth, logic, and God's Word ultimately prevail against the conflicting (and sometimes hidden) messages they might hear from friends, teachers, and TikTok?

If you're a Christian parent, these are the questions that keep you up at night, but have no fear--the great Shanda Fulbright is here! As a mom, former California public school teacher, and certified apologist, Shanda is no stranger to the challenges Christian parents face during these crazy cultural times. In this week's podcast episode, Shanda and Frank discuss the subtle ways that secular society is indoctrinating or "discipling" today's youth with destructive and even anti-Christian ideologies. During their discussion, Frank and Shanda will answer questions like:

What made Shanda question her faith as a 17-year old raised in the Church and what helped her overcome her doubts?
What are the 3 key characteristics of "discipleship" and how is it more than just a religious term?
What are 3 ways that the public school system is strategically discipling K-12 students?
How did Shanda react when a teacher shared a book about transgender ideology with her son's class?
What do the statistics show about faith in God among America's youth and their parents and what does that mean for the Church?
What are Shanda's top 3 tips for parents who want to be more intentional about discipling their kids?

Parents and other caregivers--consider this your wake-up call! The reality is that your kids are being discipled by someone or some thing. If you don't disciple them with THE truth, who will? We know you'll benefit from this week's podcast episode, and as a follow-up, consider enrolling your middle-school student in one of Shanda's self-paced courses this summer, or join Shanda LIVE in her 'Train Your Brain: An Introduction to Logic' PREMIUM course this fall!
