#332: Parenting from Overflow: Finding Time with God in Real Life
Hot Take - Burned out parents don’t build spiritually thriving families.
In this episode of the Crazy Cool Family Podcast, Don and Suzanne talk about how parents can learn to lead from overflow instead of exhaustion. They share honestly about what their own relationship with God looked like in different seasons of marriage and parenting — from babies and busyness to work stress, spiritual dry seasons, and building rhythms that last.
This episode is a practical and encouraging conversation for parents who want to stay connected to God, but feel like they don’t have enough time, energy, or margin.
In this episode, families will hear:
- why parents need overflow to lead well
- how to pursue Jesus in busy parenting seasons
- practical ways to spend time with God when life feels full
- what to do in spiritual dry seasons
- how worship, Scripture, prayer, and simple habits can help parents stay spiritually filled
Don and Suzanne also share personal stories, spiritual practices that have stood the test of time, and encouragement for overwhelmed parents who want to raise kids who love Jesus.
If parenting has felt draining lately, this episode is a reminder that God wants to fill parents up first — so they can lead their families from a place of hope, peace, and overflow.
