Pastor Dave Carl sets the tone for the 2024 Parenting Conference and explains the conference schedule.
Imagine you and I are sitting on the shore of a quiet lake fishing, or around a campfire dodging the smoke, or sitting on the front porch rocking in a couple of wooden chairs that squeak just a bit when you rock. Can you imagine that? Good. Now join me for a small sampling of “Stuff My Dad Said.”

In part two of our Parenting Pathway Podcast series on mentoring, Pastors Dave Carl and Steve Fischer talk about what it looks like to be a mentor and a mentee. We at Stonebriar strongly believe that spiritual growth is best achieved through the guidance and encouragement of fellow believers. The intimacy that develops in a mentor/mentee relationship is the best path to promoting spiritual development.

The more time we spend with kids and their parents, the more we have become convinced that all of our kids are desperate for mentors in their lives. The ability for our kids to talk to someone they trust and that you trust, but is not you, is so important and life-giving to them. You can say something to your kids 1,000 times, but it usually takes someone else saying the same thing for them to hear it. Here at Parenting Pathway, we always end each podcast episode with the phrase, “Don’t do life and don’t do parenting alone.” The power of someone beside you, pointing your kids to Christ, is overwhelming. This week on our Parenting Pathway Podcast, Family Ministries Pastor Dave Carl and Care Ministries Pastor Steve Fischer discuss the importance of mentorship in our lives and the lives of our children.

In Part 2 of our conversation with our resident thirty-something Sarah McFarland and our mom raising a teenage daughter Julie MacManus, Pastors Dave Carl and Nathan Kocurek, break down what this new generation hungers for on a deeper level. Through our discussion, we gain an understanding of how this generation desires a purpose more than anything else. Unfortunately, because God has been removed from society, they seek meaning by supporting various social causes. Young adults will donate time, money, and energy, giving them a superficial sense of purpose, and then ultimately, the cause becomes their idol.
