GrandCamp: A Wonderfully Exhausting Privilege
GrandCamp does not necessarily mean "camping" away from home. Sometimes grandchildren are happy to spend a day or weekend "camping out" for fun with grandparents who plan some good, godly time together.
Grandparents: It Is What It Isn’t
"It is what it is!" Usually, these words are spoken reluctantly when a situation is far from ideal. When we say it, we are often resigning ourselves to the inevitability of our present circumstances. As followers of Christ, our response should be: "It is what it isn’t!"
The Nurturing Qualities of God
The concept of God’s care and compassion is a central theme throughout the Bible. Although the Scriptures - and Jesus as well - refer to God as “Father”, there are numerous examples of God demonstrating nurturing, caring attributes similar to those of a mother.
Bridging the Scriptural Gap for Your Grandchildren
Bridging the scriptural gap does not mean preaching at grandchildren or forcing faith into every conversation. It means standing in the space between biblical truth and everyday life, helping children connect God’s Word to their questions, fears, hopes, and daily experiences.
Join Dr. Josh and Jen Mulvihill for conversations about faith and family and learn how to navigate cultural challenges with insight from God’s Word.

Join the Mulvihills as they explore how to shape hearts, homes, and churches around the gospel—one conversation at a time.
It is a heartbreaking reality that a large percentage of young people walk away from the church when they reach adulthood. As parents, this outcome can feel inevitable, but it does not have to be. You can take proactive, intentional steps today to help your children see their need for the church, value its community, and joyfully participate in corporate worship from an early age.
In this episode, we share practical, non-negotiable principles to help your family prioritize the local church. We discuss the importance of consistent attendance, being mindful of how you speak about the church in front of your children, and the value of committing to one church community for long-term stability. You will also learn how to transition your children into corporate worship and help them build meaningful relationships with church leaders.
