"Honestly, dad, whenever you explain the Bible to me, you move me one step closer to God."
What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this heartwarming episode of 'Sober on Purpose,' Tanya Gioia chats with Dan Nichols, Lead Pastor and author of 'Making Scripture Simple.' Together, they explore the art of intentional parenting, overcoming shame, and fostering an authentic Christian community. Dan shares his son Landon's remarkable spiritual journey, a boy who faced three open-heart surgeries yet found a deep connection to faith.
The episode is peppered with personal anecdotes, like Dan's candid conversations with Landon during a hike, where father and son exchanged feedback on how to be better for each other. This episode is not just about parenting; it's a guide for anyone wanting to build a healthy community and make scripture accessible to kids. Dan and Tanya tackle the challenges of managing technology and staying present in our children's lives, offering practical wisdom with a sprinkle of humour.
This episode is a treasure trove of hope and encouragement for parents, caregivers, and anyone navigating faith in a chaotic world. So grab your favourite drink (non-alcoholic, of course) and prepare to be inspired by the power of presence and grace.
