The Crowned Intent’s Podcast

Episode 8: Raising Kids Who Love Jesus and Thrive in Sports

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a big topic that so many families are facing right now: youth sports. With fall sports kicking off, we’re tackling the question, “Can you raise kids who love Jesus and still excel in their activities?” As parents who love sports and have coached and played for years, we get it—sports are important! They teach so much—discipline, teamwork, resilience—but how do we keep our kids grounded in their faith when the world says sports should come first?
Join us as we share our journey of balancing faith and athletics in our family. We talk about the value we see in sports, but we’re also laying out the boundaries we’ve set to make sure that God remains at the center. We’re not raising athletes; we’re raising kids who love Jesus!
What You'll Learn:
How to Keep Faith First: Learn the practical ways we keep Jesus at the forefront, even with busy sports schedules.
The Power of Intentional Decisions: From family dinners to managing multiple sports, hear how we’ve set boundaries that work for our family.
Understanding the Real Benefits of Sports: Sports build character, teach discipline, and foster teamwork, but we discuss how these should complement, not compete with, your child’s faith journey.
Why Church is a Non-Negotiable for Us: We share why missing church for a game can send the wrong message and how we handle those scheduling challenges.
Building a Family Motto: Discover our family’s guiding principle for raising well-rounded, Jesus-loving adults.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to keep up with the sports world but wondered how to keep your family’s faith intact, this episode is for you. We’re all about living intentionally, and that means making decisions that align with our values. Remember, when we honor God first, everything else falls into place.
Come along with us, friends. Let’s learn, grow, and encourage each other as we navigate this wild ride called parenting!

Episode 6 | Navigating Love and Respect | Crowned Intent

we dive deep into the dynamics of teaching love and respect to teenagers. As we transition from summer to fall, we're back into the rhythm of school, sports, and all the routines that come with this season. This week, we’re reflecting on how our intentional approach to love and respect in marriage has equipped us to guide our teens through similar principles in their relationships.
We explore how vital it is to teach our teenagers to recognize and express their needs for love and respect. From navigating sibling relationships to preparing them for their future marriages, we share practical ways we’re instilling these values at home. We discuss how to help them identify when they feel unloved or disrespected and how to handle those feelings constructively.
As Proverbs 22:6 reminds us, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." We believe this applies not just to their faith but also to their understanding of healthy relationships.
What You'll Learn:
Strategies for teaching love and respect to teenagers, in line with the biblical command to "Honor your father and mother" (Exodus 20:12), which extends to how we honor and respect all family members.
The significance of intentional communication in family dynamics, echoing Colossians 3:21: "Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged."
How to prepare your children for future relationships by modeling respect and love, fulfilling the call in Deuteronomy 6:7 to diligently teach our children.
Join us as we share our experiences and offer insights that might just help you navigate this challenging yet rewarding season of parenting.
