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)!

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.
