This episode is all about exactly how to talk to your kids about sex and God's good design for the marriage bed.We believe that dads need to be the primary discipler for their kids in every aspect of their lives, but particularly so in their sexuality. The enemy has wounded so many people in their childhood in sexuality, and it's not something you can afford to leave to chance, especially in our hyper-sexualized and perverted world.This one is highly tactical, but more importantly shows you another specific way to use the broad Family Captain principle of being on OFFENSE instead of DEFENSE.---👉 Join Our Free FB Group on Family Leadership & Sex in Marriage: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thefamilycaptain ---In This Episode:0:00 Intro2:07 "The Talk" with your kids?3:44 Will I "steal their innocence"?7:02 What age to talk about things10:59 Options for conversations12:22 Talking about anatomy correctly18:03 Discomfort19:52 What's at stake (clip?)24:59 If you're "late" to the party28:57 Books and resources33:31 Go from defense to offenseMentioned:God's Design For Sex (series of 4 books): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O5DIVTU/God Made All Of Me: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1942572301/---👉 Want John Michael To Personally Help You Become The Best Man Your Wife And Kids Have Ever Known?

Last week, Charlie Kirk’s life was cut short by an act of evil. In the days since, countless stories have surfaced - not of controversy, but of a man marked by conviction, grace, and an unshakable devotion to his faith and family. His friends, colleagues, and even opponents testify to a rare combination: courage to speak truth without apology, and restraint to meet hostility with patience. In this episode, we reflect on what Charlie’s life and death reveal about legacy, the cost of truth, and the quiet strength of a husband and father who left behind more than a movement. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to live boldly, love deeply, and lead with faith in a world full of noise, this conversation will give you both challenge and hope.---👉 Join Our Free FB Group on Family Leadership & Sex in Marriage: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thefamilycaptain---In This Episode:0:00 Intro1:13 The very impressive Charlie Kirk8:13 Legacy vs. noise10:22 Family as your calling16:33 Noise that kills legacy (and grief)24:43 Can you build a "comfortable" legacy?28:50 Christians and politics and Charlie Kirk30:11 Is there such a thing as to much truth?36:55 The gift of restraint43:15 Preparation behind boldness47:55 Being a truly great man55:22 Martyrdom, conviction, and preaching the gospel daily1:00:21 God goes before us1:04:22 Closing prayer👉 Want John Michael To Personally Help You Become The Best Man Your Wife And Kids Have Ever Known?

Before the revamp, your livestreams/episodes were so much more helpful. These are still good. But I think they have less direction, more meandering, and more focus on things that interest folks at Chris's level. Granted, I am in a crisis situation, as you say, but I need much more time spent repeating the basics of how to interact in a healthy manner and how to focus on responsibility.
I feel like the revamped podcasts episodes are far less dense with hardcore, helpful, practical knowledge. They seem wandering, and less packed with the advice that makes John Michael Clark unique.
