Show Notes
Jesus loves you, no candy — but we have prayer. A Halloween doorbell video that went viral, and what it means for dads raising kids who aren't afraid to follow Jesus out loud.
The pour: the Fresco Paloma — tequila, lime, and Fresca. A ranch-water cousin Ryan rates an eight.
Faith: Daniel keeps praying when the law says stop. 1 Timothy 4:12 — let no one despise you for your youth; set the example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity. It's cool — and countercultural — to follow Jesus.
Family: teens in costume at a house with a prayer sign. One boy takes his mask off, says yes to prayer while his friends laugh, and pulls the group back. The comments say it: that boy's a leader. Plus Pew numbers on teen prayer, and why the home is the first school of faith.
Pull up a chair.
