In this episode, Dave and Dante discuss how God uses us in the phases of our life - whether they are positive or negative - and will always turn them into something better...especially when we say "yes" to God. Dante is closing up his tenure as an Elder at his church and discusses some of the lessons-learned, and Dave talks about the importance of not just "going through the motions" at church. Highlighting a book by R.C. Sproul, the guys talk about five spiritual disciplines, and not shying away from being the "Jesus freak" when it comes the the spiritual discipline you enjoy the most. Bottom line...wait until you see what God is able to do after you say yes!

One of the greatest movies from the 90's included these four words: "Pop quiz, hot shot." In this episode, Dante quizzes Dave on an important Legacy Dad topic: how do you stoke the fire in the kitchen? Tune in to hear Dave's analogy to what you actually need to have a successful fire, and take the lessons and apply them to your lives!

If you could hit the "re-do" button on being a dad, what would that look like? If you've got the experience of being a dad, what would you tell a new dad? What are the keys? Dante leads the conversation, speaking of loving your wife, respecting her and the kids, being the spiritual leader, and more. Additionally, Dante provides an update to the Legacy Dads ministry and podcast. The legacy continues!

Parents are we being more Christ-like with a balance of truth and grace or pharisaical with threats, rules, and demanding obedience? Too many mental health problems in children today come from poor parenting styles or worse, emotional abuse left unchecked. Learn the signs of bad parenting and how to turn away and become more balanced and Christ like.

The Holy Spirit derails our podcast into a talk on our current state of economics, God's word on stewardship, and what our role should be in helping others versus empowering others to help themselves.

Easter 2021, What Is Our Identity? Can identity change? Who and what defines our identity and being. Do we listen to popular culture or the media for our identity or does our identity come from God? This Easter Sunday 2021, strive to Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.

Christian Living in a Cancel Culture. How do Christians live faithfully according to Biblical truth in a culture that embraces radical relativism? What happens when people are suppressed, censored and not allowed to express their beliefs in this culture? How do we adhere to the moral and constitutional high ground without reacting in fear, anger, or by attacking others?

Research suggest that the current divisive nature in the United States or "cancel Culture" may have been caused by parenting practices. Cancel culture is forcing censorship of free speech and free thought and some believe has gone too far.  

Men's ministry ideas and an action plan to implement effective strategies.

What is true in the Bible? What is relativism? Are moral questions true or false or only relative to some particular standpoint. Is there no absolute truth and only different perspectives with no standpoint that is uniquely privileged over all others?

Vinnie Adams Special Needs Ministry Director at Faith Church Indiana talks about parenting and ministry to special needs children and teens. The Reflectors ministry facilitates the discipleship and belonging of people with special needs and is a true testament and example of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that we could all learn from.

Do you remember the last time God showed up unannounced in your life? Even though the Lord is everywhere always, occasionally He’ll show up in a unique way. Will you be ready? Will You be afraid?

Jeff McDaniel joins Legacy Dads to discuss how lies have made us think faith is about fear, guilt, and shame but the truth of the gospel is far from that.
