How to Stay Close When Your Family is Divided on Religion — Glenn’s Story

from How’d You Do It? - Stories of Raising Children in the Faith · host Jessie and Chris Koerner

Welcome to Episode 009 of How'd You Do It?Today, we’re sitting down with a dear family friend, Glenn Davis, calling in from Huntsville, Alabama. Glenn has such a unique perspective, he spent 11 years away from the church before finding his way back through a promise he made while reading the Book of Mormon. In this episode, he opens up about the "long game" of parenting, sharing how he navigated a 60-hour work week and a mixed-faith marriage while trying to keep his daughters close to the Spirit. From volunteering at Girls Camp to supporting his children through heavy struggles with addiction and faith "sabbaticals," Glenn’s story is a beautiful masterclass in leading with unconditional love. He reminds us that while we can’t control our children’s agency, we can always provide a safe harbor, trusting that God’s timeline for our kids is much bigger than our own.Enjoy!
