In this episode, Wes and I dig into something we all wrestle with: how to make decisions when you’re stuck, overwhelmed, or overthinking every option. We talk about the ways we’re wired differently—he’s the “slow down, think it through” brake pedal, and I’m the “let’s move and figure it out on the way” gas pedal—and how God speaks to each of us uniquely.

You’ll hear us unpack:

• What to do when your mind feels crowded
• Why obedience matters more than outcomes
• How to trust God with steps that don’t make sense yet
• How to bring your wiring (not someone else’s) into your faith

Plus, a special announcement:

Parenting is wild. One minute you’re praying sweet bedtime prayers, the next minute you’re saying, “No more questions. Go to sleep.” And somehow, this whole exhausting, beautiful thing is one of the clearest ways we see the heart of God.

In this episode of the Everyday Truths Podcast, Sherri is joined by her husband Wesley for a real, unpolished conversation on parenting with purpose. Using the same framework they apply to strong relationships—eat together, play together, talk about life & God together, work together—they share how those rhythms shape the way they raise their kids.

They talk about:

• Why it’s normal to feel unqualified (and why dependence on God is part of the design)
• Setting shared parenting goals so your day-to-day decisions aren’t random or reactive
• Teaching kids kindness, boundaries, and ownership of their choices
• Parenting different personalities with the same core values
• Praying over your kids, seeing who God made them to be (not who you wish they were), and playing the long game: grown kids who still want to come home

Whether you’re parenting littles, leading teens, co-parenting, single parenting, or investing in nieces, nephews, or students—this episode will help you think about parenting with more clarity, grace, and intentionality.

Prompt to Take With You:
What vision or “true north” do you want to guide the way you show up for the kids in your life?

How do you actually work together with your spouse without constantly tripping over each other’s expectations, personalities, and plans?

In this episode of the Everyday Truths Podcast, Sherri is joined by her husband, Wesley, to answer a listener question: “How do you guys work together?” From playful conspiracy theories to practical frameworks, they unpack how they’ve learned to live as teammates—not rivals—in marriage, family life, and calling.

Together they talk about:

• Seeing marriage as a shared mission instead of separate agendas
• The power of “same team” language and why it’s anchored in Genesis
• The four markers of providential relationships: eating, playing, talking about life & God, and working together
• How they decide who leads and who supports on projects (without ego… most days 😉)
• Why unspoken goals create tension—and how naming a clear, shared goal can shift the whole tone of a day, a move, or even the holidays

This conversation is for couples, friends, teammates, and anyone who wants their relationships to feel more united and intentional.

What’s one shared goal you can clearly communicate this week so you can stop guessing and start pulling in the same direction?
