The Family Discipleship Podcast

Adam sits down with Dr. Esau McCauley—New Testament professor at Wheaton College and pastor of All Saints Anglican Church in Naperville—to talk about discipling kids in a divided world. They discuss Esau’s new children’s book God’s Colorful Kingdom, why kids need more than “Bible greatest hits,” and how parents can shape the way their children learn to value every person as made in God’s image.

Following Jesus has never been the cool option—and that’s something our kids need to be ready for. In this One Question episode, Adam and Chelsea talk about how to disciple kids who aren’t ruled by popularity, approval, or the fear of man. They unpack how to make being “different” normal and why closeness to God matters more than being liked.

Parenting teenagers can feel overwhelming—especially in a noisy, over-scheduled, screen-filled world. Cameron Cole and Anna Meade Harris from Rooted Ministry join us to talk about discipling adolescents with grace, clarity, and patience, and why parents still matter more than any algorithm or trend.
