We talk about how screens can shape our homes, and why technology must stay a tool instead of a master that disciples our kids. We share practical boundaries and hard truths about social media, pornography, and attention so our families can keep Jesus front and center.

• recognizing doomscrolling and short attention spans as a real problem
• spotting the “rush” of likes, notifications, and constant pings
• naming pornography as accessible, addictive, and spiritually destructive
• pursuing repentance that bears fruit and invites real accountability
• planning boundaries with our spouse and staying united as parents
• choosing content that helps our walk rather than shapes our minds

Covenant Church Houma

We talk candidly about why discipleship has to start at home and why a crowded schedule can quietly push Jesus to the margins. We lean on Deuteronomy 6 and Psalm 78 to call parents back to everyday, lived faith that kids can see all week long.

• the cost of busyness, travel sports, and the scholarship mindset
• simple ways to start spiritual talks by asking good questions
• consistency Monday through Saturday as the real test
• financial pressure and making hard, values-based choices
• practical ideas we use: one-on-one trips, ongoing talks, nightly prayer
• encouragement for singles and single parents who carry a heavy load

We talk through Chet’s path from student ministry and evangelism to leading a rural church in Virginia, and what that season taught him about trust, conflict, and growth.

We also share the spiritual markers and practical habits that shape his preaching and his family life.

• moving from evangelism dreams to weekly preaching and senior leadership
• learning the small-church realities that shape long-term health
• confronting head-on with a loving spirit instead of an angry one
• being right but not blameless and choosing repentance quickly
• leaving a legacy through leadership alignment and real renovation wins
• protecting kids from ministry pressure while staying faithful as a family
