Creating a Multi-Generational Family Team

For many in Western civilization, our idea of “family” seems like a failed experiment. We’ve been sold the line that the family exists primarily as a springboard for the individual. But what if our families functioned more like a team–a team on a mission?

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, Caesar talks with Jeremy Pryor, who has created a multi-generational household that lives together on mission making disciples of Jesus. Their story is powerful!

Gospel Fluency: A Relational Game-changer!

There’s this crazy thing that most of us Christians live with (I know I did…) where we have a hard time sharing our faith or even speaking to other Christians about their sin without feeling like a jerk or fearing their rejection.

A relational killer!

Have you ever wished you could share your Christian faith with others… in a more natural way, without feeling awkward or preachy? (more…)

Becoming a Family on Mission Pt.2

You’re never going to lead anyone further, faster, or deeper into the gospel and discipleship than you’re leading your own family. Never. But people are waiting for a place at your table and a taste of life in the Kingdom of God! Let’s go deeper…

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, Caesar and his wife, Tina, continue the story of how their family rhythms grew to include many others as they make disciples in community. They’ll share some of the things that God had to change in their hearts and home in order for this Kingdom lifestyle to become a reality.

Becoming a Family on Mission Pt.1

I’ve come to see discipleship, in many ways, as a re-parenting of people, a re-parenting of their culture. People need to understand and experience life in our perfect Father’s family and life in the Kingdom before they fully understand the love of God. Can others find that when they hang out with your family?

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, you get a BONUS training done this week for folks in the Everyday Disciple Challenge. Caesar and his wife, Tina, share exactly how their family (Team K) rhythms grew to include many others as they make disciples in community. When living as a family on mission, discipleship naturally flows out of your normal family rhythms to include and draw more and more people to God’s family!

Treating Everyone Like Part of the Family

Guests never do any work or preparation; family members always pitch in. We try and impress guests with our hospitality; family members expect to be “part of the flow” and help themselves to whatever they need. Are you treating people like guests or like family?

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we ask the question: do the people coming to your church service each week, and the folks coming to your home, feel more like guests or like part of the family? Caesar is joined by his wife Tina to share how and why we can help everyone feel like true brothers and sisters.

Is Your Parenting Style Transactional or Grace-based?

Many of us find our parenting style too often mirrors the ways we were raised by our own parents. And this is not always a good thing.

My wife, Tina, and I were raised in pretty similar ways. If we had to name the style of parenting our parents often used we would call it “transactional”. Every desire or action–even our emotions–was connected to a certain requirement or response based on the “value” of what it was we desired. Or avoided.  (more…)
