Teaching your kids about Jesus isn’t just about Sunday school answers—it’s about walking hand-in-hand with them toward a real relationship with God. In this episode, the On the Table crew talks about how to guide your children from curiosity to confidence: answering their “whys” before doubts take root, showing them that God is their loving Creator, and modeling authentic grace, faith, and love every day. You’ll hear why living your faith openly (not hypocritically) matters more than ever, how to share your testimonies with impact, and why skepticism isn’t a badge of honor—it’s a roadblock. This is about being “all in” with Jesus so your kids know He’s real, trustworthy, and present in their lives so they, too, may enter adulthood “all in” with Jesus.

In this heartfelt episode of On the Table, the team dives into the messy, beautiful, and sometimes overwhelming world of parenting. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough for your kids… you’re not alone. But the truth is, parenting was never meant to be about perfection. It’s about grace. We talk about what it looks like to parent with authenticity, to repair relationships instead of pretending their flawless, and to explain the “why” behind decisions so our kids grow in wisdom and compassion. We explore how grace invites conversation, builds trust, and helps you see the heart behind your child’s behavior. You’re not just raising kids – you’re helping launch people into their God-given missions. Tune in and be encouraged: there’s grace for you here, and your kids too.

Long before Moses came down the mountain with the law, God had already promised a better covenant – one rooted in faith, not rules. In this episode of On the Table, the crew unpacks the timeline and purpose of the law, and how it was never meant to make anyone righteous. From the shame-inducing pressure of vague obedience to the subtle grip of legalism in today’s Christian culture, we challenge the false comfort of self-righteousness and point to the true commands of the New Covenant: love God and love others. If you’ve ever felt burdened by religion, confused about the law, or unsure where grace fits in, this conversation is for you.
