How To Run An Annual Family Summit That'll Change Your Life
We think having an annual family summit is one of the most important rhythms families can add to help them start to become a family team. In this episode, we're joined by Blake and Chandler Smith, who will be our coaches inside the Family Teams Accelerator in December. They are EXPERTS when it comes to meetings (which means they're fun and connective, NOT boring and horrible like you'd think). They break down why they do a family summit every year, how they do it (the 3 main sections), lessons learned over the past decade-plus of doing this, AND the extremely vulnerable exercise they do every year. Listen to this, get excited about how this could change your family's life, and then join us inside the Accelerator! --- FREE SUMMIT REFLECTION APP: https://familyteams.com/summit JOIN THE ACCELERATOR: https://familyteams.com/accelerator --- On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:43 How to reflect on the previous year 6:48 Why do a family summit? 13:59 The elements of a successful structure 15:35 The most meaningful activity for moms 19:50 State of the family 22:12 Encouraging the mothers 24:50 Encouraging the fathers 27:26 Accelerator --- Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com --- Resources Mentioned: FREE SUMMIT REFLECTION APP: https://familyteams.com/summit JOIN THE ACCELERATOR: https://familyteams.com/accelerator Principles by Ray Dalio: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074B2CZJG/ --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

Has Technology CONQUERED The American Family?
Do you know why you're living the style of life you're living? Do you know just how new it is, and what the modern western society has done to family? It's been a long march to get here, but the results have been devastating. Rory Groves joins us today to talk about the book their ministry is re-publishing, Henry and the Great Society, and why this is an important cultural message that we need to get into as many people's hands as possible. This podcast cuts to the very root of what's broken about modern, western society, and yet gives hope as Rory and Jeremy discuss how to return to a more normal, family- and community-centered approach to life.

3 Ideas To Build Your Family Team This Christmas
Christmas is one of the most approachable ways to start building your family team. It's one of the few things that still has SOME semblance of meaning to us here in the west, as long as you look a little past the commercialization of it. That's why we think it's an amazing opportunity to start to build lifelong family traditions, to start to coalesce as a true family team, and to bless one another as you all share in the excitement and blessing of Christ's birth. In this episode, Jeff talks about some of the plays he's included in this month's Accelerator Playbook, which you can get right now by signing up for The Family Teams Accelerator (link below)! On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:14 Why Jeff loves Christmas so much 4:01 Create a Family Tradition That Lasts 7:06 Church calendar and light 10:12 Scripture to find Advent meaning 13:01 Family teams gift giving 17:20 Roles for kids Follow Family Teams: Facebook: https://facebook.com/famteams Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familyteams Website: https://www.familyteams.com Resources Mentioned: Free Advent Reading Plan: https://familyteams.com/christmas/ Accelerator: https://familyteams.com/accelerator/ --- Hi, welcome to the Family Teams podcast!

How to Design a Christmas That ACTUALLY Centers on Jesus (12 Days Framework)
Your family's Christmas traditions might be coasting on autopilot - some things you do because you've always done them, some events that just happen to you instead of being chosen intentionally. What if this year you flipped the script and designed a December that actually centers on Jesus while creating memories your kids will carry into their own marriages? Jeremy and April Prior break down their 12 Days of Christmas framework, from scripture-paired events to a family arts show that turns your living room into a gallery. This isn't about adding more chaos to an already packed season...it's about saying yes to the right things and building annual traditions that your multi-generational family team will actually look forward to.
