COURAGEOUS PARENTING

Isaac & Angie Tolpin - becourageousministry.org

Biblical parenting doesn't happen by accident — and in today's culture, raising confident, courageous Christian children demands more intentionality than ever. Each week, Isaac & Angie Tolpin bring raw, unfiltered truth on the parenting topics most podcasts won't touch: self-control, obedience, discipleship, purity, pornography, technology, boundaries, relationships, and marriage teamwork. Whether you're navigating motherhood, fatherhood, or homeschooling, this is Scripture-grounded guidance for parents who refuse to raise passive faith. No compromise. No watered-down advice.

    How to Lead Family Devotions (Without Overcomplicating It)

    Your kids are growing up in an unbelief epidemic, and you can't save them, but you can disciple them. In this first episode of a new series inside the Resolute Man Podcast, I lay out why fatherhood today is unprecedented (juggling multiple income sources, an accelerating pace of change, a culture that's beating down masculinity) and why home discipleship matters more than ever. I introduce the plan: a daily, Monday through Thursday walk through Proverbs, giving you practical tips and clear teaching on small sections of Scripture your family can actually use, plus a father in unprecedented times tip at the end of each episode. You'll also get the simple formula for teaching your family: Promote, Read, Ask, Yearn. It's built to be practical, not just inspirational, so you can actually do it with your kids this week. Scripture referenced: Deuteronomy 6:7 through 9 If this episode helps you, subscribe and leave a review, it genuinely helps other dads find the show.

    "When Parenting Feels Hopeless: 3 Mistakes Discouraging Christian Parents"

    Do you ever feel like your parenting just isn't working — no matter how hard you try? For Christian parents today, conviction erodes quietly. Consistency breaks down across the areas that matter most: discipline, discipleship, screen time, peer and family influences, reaching your kids' hearts, and handling bad attitudes. And the pressure of an increasingly hostile culture only makes it harder. In this episode, Isaac and Angie Tolpin identify the 3 core mistakes fueling discouragement in Christian parents right now — and give practical wisdom and personal stories on how to overcome them. They also share content from their new book Courageous Parenting, releasing June 2nd, 2026. If you're a Christian mom or dad who's tired of feeling like you're failing, or want to sharpen your focus, marriage alignment and follow through, this episode is for you.

    Prevent Division in Family, Age-Integrated Church, & Culture Wars

    Humility about your parenting is the beginning of a catalyst to new growth and fruitfulness in your mission at home. When you model humility, long term you will see it help your family stay united despite conflict or disagreements. They must see it while they are young to be it in their own relationship when they get older. Isaac and Angie just returned from giving 12 messages at two conferences to parents over the last couple of weeks and while none of those messages were about Church, they made small comments within some of them about the importance of biblical community. Surprisingly, the questions they received the most were about the age-integrated Church they planted in Idaho. People are starving for real authentic community with people running the race in the same direction. Join the Tolpins as they recorded this the morning after the last conference from their hotel room with so many fresh perspectives to share.
