As you settle in this Christmas season, after a long night of wassailing, caroling, and ushering Aunt Betty to bed after having had too many slices of rum cake…We’d love for you to take a listen as the guys discuss two distinctly different Christmas topics (Hence, the bi polar Christmas designation); the importance of establishing family Christmas traditions and how to handle unruly family members.

If you look at the list of top ten teen sins, you see that the basic cause is peer pressure. But why are kids so susceptible to peer pressure? It seems that they want to be accepted by their social group so bad that they’ll do anything…including violate their own moral, ethical, and faith boundaries. That my friends is called low self-worth. But where on earth does that come from? Listen in this week as the boys discuss the origins of low self-esteem in our kids.
This week the guys talk to an old friend. And when I say “old”, I’m talking mid 1990’s old.

We are so passionate about our nation’s, church’s, and family’s lack of contentment, that we filled two shows. This week is part one. We were going to leave it just one show, but then there was all this other info that we felt had to be added. I mean, we couldn’t just leave it like that unfinished, could we? It had to be better, in fact this show on contentment could never be good enough, right? We have to keep working to get it just right. I’m not sure we can get it done in just two shows…maybe we need three shows to get the topic on contentment JUST right…
