Family Discipleship Milestones

On the nineteenth episode of the Family Discipleship Podcast the hosts (Adam Griffin, Chelsea Griffin, and Cassie Bryant) talk about Family Discipleship Milestones. 

Questions we asked in this episode: 

  • What are some examples of family discipleship milestones? 
  • How do you think our culture is thinking about manhood and womanhood and adulthood and how is it different from what we want for our kids?  
  • What are some of the harder and tougher things that can be milestones? 
  • What are some scriptural examples of God giving his people physical reminders of his faithfulness? 
  • Can you think of physical things or places that remind you of God’s faithfulness?
  • Do y’all have any milestones you’ve already marked or any you are looking forward to? 
  • How can churches help make and mark milestones?  
  • Can you think of family traditions, adventures, or heirlooms that could help parents remind their kids about Christ? 

Some of our favorite quotes from this episode:

  • “For our good we create reminders of God’s faithfulness. We don’t want to fall out of love with Jesus and we don’t want to fall into sin. We have to stay reminded all the time. God knows that and that’s why the scriptures repeat again and again “Don’t forget, don’t forget, don’t forget!”” - Chelsea Griffin
  • “The opposite of manhood is not womanhood, it’s boyhood. The bible says that when I became a man I put childish ways away. As our boys go from boyhood to manhood I want them to learn to serve others, I want them to have the courage to protect others, and I want them to put others first as they put themselves last. I want them to have the courage to follow God in a culture that does not respect that.” - Chelsea Griffin   
  • “Not all milestones are celebratory. It can be the loss of a family pet. Their first funeral. It can be failing a class or making a huge mistake at school. It is taking anything that your kid will likely look back on and remember, and wanting to make sure that in their memory of that time they remember you walking with them and they remember you pointing them to truth and how to think about that difficult thing in light of the gospel.” - Cassie Bryant  
  • “God seems keenly aware that we are a forgetful people and so he gives his people a lot of reminders. Our eyes need to see things to remind us that God seeks to dwell with his people.” - Chelsea Griffin
  • “There’s something so special about going on a pilgrimage, going on a trip that has a spiritual meaning behind it.” - Adam Griffin
  • “If you do not plan family discipleship milestones, they will not happen. There are really sweet things that come from a family sitting down and planning out how we are going to point out the goodness of God.” - Adam Griffin
