Pairadocs is a podcast with a Christian take on life, family, and culture. Jimmy and Josh will provide marriage and parenting insight, to be sure.  However, don't be suprised if other topics emerge,  such as sports, entertainment, politics, or the latest episode of Pioneer Woman - we have way too many women in our lives!

What if there was one thing that would make most, if not all, family conflicts lessen, of not end.   What would pay for get ahold of the “magic bullet” of relational harmony?  Well get out your credit cards my friends, because this week, the guys discuss the all-important issue of empathy.  This one little touchy-feely word can go a long way toward reducing marital, occupational, and parental conflict.  How do I know?  Because I can feel your pain…

The tragedy of a mass shooting.  It’s all over the news.  Everybody is talking about it, political blame is flying back and forth, and there sits our kids.  Scared, confused, and in some cases, completely ignorant of the events swirling around them.  So how do we best discuss unimaginable evil with our kids and keep their innocents intact?  Not sure that's possible, but listen in as Jimmy and Josh tackle talking tragedy with our children.

If kids are old enough to ask, they're old enough to hear.

You don't have to know an unknowable act of God. There's nothing wrong with saying 'I don't know.'

Talk about the solution more than you talk about the problem. 

 

Solution: Pray, love others

If you are as sick of politics as I am, raise your hand, right there where you are…yes, God bless you…yes, I see that hand.  Are there any others?  With the current political climate and ever-present social media bombarding our every waking moment, we can’t get away from politics, even if we wanted to.  Every song, TV show, movie, sporting event, etc. has comments, demonstrations, or snide political comments.  IT JUST NEVER ENDS!!  Join the fellas this week, as they examine, how we as believers, couples, and parents can navigate the political ocean that we’re all seemingly drowning in.

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?  What does your child see?  How does our body image impact the way we perceive ourselves and how we perceive others perceive us…I may have used the word, “perceive” one too many times?  Our self-image has an enormous influence on the quality of our lives and the lives of our children, yet how we determine that self-image can make us fickle at best and be damaging at it’s worst.  Join the guys this week as they look at how we view our physical selves, where it comes from, and how it can negatively effect our entire lives.

You’ve heart it said that it is not good for man to be alone.  Well, this week, the guys explore exactly why that is.  This is not about being single, or the benefits of “alone time.”  It’s about the pervasive, negative impact of toxic isolation in both individuals, couples, and families.  So, in keeping with the theme, listen to this episode in a large group of your closest friends!

A lot of great things come in threes.  The number of outs in an inning or baseball, how many branches of government the USA has, not to mention the number of personalities that make up the holy Trinity.  But don’t forget to add to that list the number of episodes in the current Pairadocs series on the adverse effects that pornography has on the mind, relationships…and this week the world.  Please view the third video in the series found at www.mindheartworld.org and join in the discussion of the gruesome impact that porn has on society via sex trafficking, child trafficking, and the mind numbing influence that the porn industry has on those who participate in it.  Not a ton of humor in this one…

This week the guys are halfway through their three-part series on one of our favorite topics…pornography.  Hopefully, by now you’ve all gone to www.mindheartworld.org and watched the first two episodes of this groundbreaking documentary about the colossally negative impact that porn has on all that view it.  This week, we will thoroughly examine part two; how viewing pornography all but prevents a person from establishing or maintaining close personal relationships.  One may say, “So what?!  So, I’m watching some pornography.  What harm can there be?”  If you are married, in a long-term relationship, or ever hope to be…listen and learn my friend.  Listen and learn.

Welcome to a new three-part series of Pairadocs.  We don’t do this very often, but in leu of the most recent research establishing the fact that over 8 in 10 of young men between the ages of 20 and 29 are viewing hardcore pornography weekly…I did say, weekly!  We felt compelled to address this issue once again.  We need you to go to www.brainheartworld.org.  This is an amazing three-part video series produced by an amazing organization called Fight The New Drug.  Follow them on every platform that you have available to you.  We want you to log in; view the videos and then engage with us as we discuss the contents.  Part One deals with how pornography impacts…no, changes the brain.  Incredible videos, intriguing discussion.  We’ll tackle the second video next week that focuses on how porn all but short circuits our ability to have intimate relationships…Let’s do this!!

So, what’s more fun than talking about a VERY heart wrenching topic in a way that will alienate half the listening audience?  It’s a sad subject and is even sadder that the subject has to be talked about.  Take a listen this week as Jimmy and Josh honestly discuss the tragic topic of abortion.

I remember once watching John Wayne in an old movie (As every red-blooded American male should do, at least once a month) as he was waiting on top of the wall at the cavalry outpost for an attack from the marauding Indians.  He said to a much less experienced soldier, “It’s quiet…too quiet.”  In other words, when it gets too quiet, it’s all about the hit the proverbial fan!  Freeze and Flee, the last of Sue Johnson’s Demon Dialogues, has to do when couples reach the point of giving up.  When it gets quiet…too quiet.  If you find yourself or someone you love in this desperate state, listen in as the guys help you not get scalped.  Or, or you know what I mean.

If you are stuck in the 'freeze and flee' dialogue:

- Share with your spouse a cue that begins the distancing process

- Recognize what you are telling yourself that keeps you separated

 

Problem solve, discuss with spouse:

When you do _____ I don't feel safely connected to you. Then I tend to _______. I do it in the hopes that ________. And as this pattern keeps going, I feel _________. The more I __________, the more you _______. Maybe we can warn each other when this starts.

What is the best way to approach the topic of sex with your teenager?

When is a cellphone a good idea and is there an appropriate age to start?

Dumb phone - when you need to communicate with your child

Smart phone - high school/sophomore

 

How do you apologize to your kid without them using it against you later?

Apologize for your part and punish them for theirs.

They can't leverage it against you unless you let them.

 

What are the red flags that tells you your child needs counseling?

Look at their lowered level of functioning, see if anything has changed.

Would you like to dance?  Well, if you’re a good Baptist (and Josh most certainly is not!), the answer would an unequivocal “no.”  And that would be the correct answer for all of us when it comes to the Protest Polka.  This deadly relationship dance is one of the main indicators of marriages that don’t make it past the 5-year mark.  Listen in as the guys, two step their way through this issue and tango their way to a solution…ok, I’m completely done with dancing puns.

How we build self-esteem in our children:

- Make sure we allow for failure

- Work. Allow them to struggle

- Random expressions of love and pride

So, a Sequoia Redwood and a nanoparticle of dust walk into a bar…  What do they have in common?  It’s no joke, it’s your marriage, of course!  The Bible is stuffed full of powerful and famous verses that relate to our marriage relationships.  And this week, the guys dig into Matthew 7:3-5, one of the least known and most powerful of those snippets from God’ Word concerning marital bliss.  Just to give you a heads up.  Jesus doesn’t call folks hypocrites very often…

So what do we do with the pain and suffering that we experience in life?  Especially, when it happens to good people, that trying hard to life their lives according to the Word of God?  We want life, and what happens to us in life to make sense, right?  But what do we tell ourselves and our children when it doesn’t?  When life isn’t fair.  When God doesn’t make sense?  Listen in, this might be just for you…

When God Doesn't Make Sense by James Dobson

 

Pain is OK, God doesn't want us to run from pain. Pain is not punishment.

 

We don't trust God because we don't take the time to get to know Him.

This week, the guys sit down for a lively discussion with Jeff Huxford.  He had a great career as a physician, a great family, what could possibly go wrong?  How about a car accident that caused a traumatic brain injury?  His life, their life, changed in that instant.  You’ll love his story told in his new book, Finding Normal: An Uninvited Change; An Unexpected Outcome.

When we say “mindfulness” many of you, especially guys, tend to nod off.  Mindfulness, you assume, is about meditation, yoga, and saying, “Namaste” while struggling to get off the floor.  But that is NOT what we mean by being mindful.  We mean, living your life intentionally, and with purpose.  If you want a better marriage, a better family, a better walk with God, then you have to make a choice to make that happen.  Listen in as the boys do their best impersonation of personal fitness trainers, by instructing you on how you can be your best you!!  Come on!! And two and three…

Josh's made up change quote:

for change to happen there has to be vision, a plan and an act of will

 

A Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster

 

Change requires 3 things:

We need to realize the need for change

We know what to do to change

Motivation to change

 

If you're not mindful, you're mindless

 

Be present

 

Solutions:

Time with your family (schedule it!)

Talking face to face

Play - do something fun

Say No

Accountability
