Marriage, Mentorship, and Parenting in a Digital Age w/ Jay Holland

Parenting in a digital age and raising kids into godly men and women are the focus as Aaron Smith talks with Jay Holland, a family and student pastor in South Florida with more than 25 years in ministry, husband to Emily, dad of four, and host of the Let's Parent on Purpose and Guided by Faith podcasts. Jay explains how intentional rites of passage, built on Robert Lewis's "real man" framework, help teens step into biblical manhood and womanhood, and why dad should be the first repenter in the home. They discuss teen anxiety, identity, and social media, the advice from The Anxious Generation to limit kids' digital access while giving them more freedom to be brave in the physical world, dating your spouse in front of your kids, serving Jesus together as a family, and an encouraging rise in teens' interest in Christianity.
