Episode 93-Trusting God as Our Young Adults Step Into Adulthood with Dr. Jim Burns

Sending your young adult into the real world can feel both heartbreaking and heart-warming. In this episode, Dr. Jim Burns—author, speaker, and president of HomeWord—joins Paige Clingenpeel to share practical, faith-based wisdom for parents navigating this season. Together, they unpack the essential life skills kids need before leaving home, how to raise children toward greater responsibility without enabling, and the shift parents must make from being in control to becoming a coach. They also explore how to help your child build a lasting faith in God, ways to keep a marriage strong as family dynamics change, and the importance of spiritual intimacy and intentionality in marriage. Dr. Burns leaves parents with hope, reminding them that even in the hard moments of letting go, God is at work shaping both us and our children for what’s ahead.HomeWord: https://homeword.com/ Doing Life With Your Adult Children by Dr. Jim Burns: https://homeword.com/product/dlwac-book/ A Student’s Guide to Sexual Integrity: God’s Plan for Sex and Your Body by Dr. Jim Burns: https://homeword.com/product/students-guide-to-sexual-integrity-gods-plan-for-sex-and-your-body/  Paige Clingenpeel: PaigeClingenpeel.comQuestions About the Podcast?
