009. COURAGE - "We are brave and stand up for what is true"

Courage and fortitude might sound like the same thing. They are not. And in this episode I am telling you exactly why.Courage is about truth. Standing up for it. Teaching your children to know it, love it, and defend it in a world that is actively lying to them. We are brave and we stand up for what is true. That is our family saying. And in this episode I get very real about what that actually means to raise children who will stand firm in the faith when the world tells them not to.I talk about how courage does not come naturally, why loving someone and telling them the truth are not opposites, and how the hard work you are doing right now in the toddler years is forming the child who will one day sit across from a college professor and know exactly what they believe and why.This episode is real, unfiltered, and a little chaotic. The baby woke up halfway through.
