When culture seeps into parenting decisions, discernment becomes vital. In this episode, Israel and Brooke address how to handle relatives privately messaging teens, whether martial arts carry hidden religious influence, and if secular textbooks can be redeemed for homeschool use. Blending biblical wisdom with real-world experience, they call parents to guard their homes, guide their children’s hearts, and pursue education rooted in Christ.

Biblical parenting is hard—but you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Each week, Raising Them Up tackles real-life parenting questions with biblical wisdom, practical help, and gospel hope. From screen time and sibling conflict to discipleship, marriage, and homeschooling, hosts Israel and Brook Wayne bring decades of parenting experience and a deep love for God’s Word to your everyday challenges.
Short, honest, and full of grace—this is Christian parenting help you can trust.
