FMP 254: How Parental Hypocrisy Undermines Your Influence
Description
Your kids are watching, and they see more than you think they do!
In episode 254 of the Family Meeting Podcast, Thomas and Lysandra confront a hard but necessary truth: parental hypocrisy destroys credibility. When our actions don't line up with our words, we teach our children that appearances matter more than authenticity, and that faith is something we perform, not live.
Rooted in Luke 12:1-3, Jesus warns that nothing hidden will stay hidden. In a culture of image and performance, your home must be a place of honest, Christ-centered integrity.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- 5 subtle signs of hypocrisy in Christian parenting.
- How children internalize the gap between what we say and what we do.
- Why humility and repentance are more powerful than pretending.
- What it means to model faith that's real, not just visible.
- How to rebuild trust if your past actions have hurt your witness.
Whether you're a new parent or raising teens, this episode will help you lead with conviction, not contradiction.
