Culture Is Teaching Our Kids About Marriage—Are We? Dr. Josh Mulvihill
Our culture is already teaching our children what to believe about marriage—often at a very young age. So the question isn’t if they’re being discipled on this topic, but who is doing the discipling.In this powerful excerpt from the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, host Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to discuss why Christian parents—especially homeschool families—must be intentional about preparing their children for marriage long before adulthood.Dr. Mulvihill explains how cultural messages are reshaping marriage into a “capstone” rather than a God-designed cornerstone, why confusion about marriage leads to broken relationships later in life, and how even young children can begin understanding God’s good design for family.This conversation will encourage parents to:Teach a biblical definition of marriageStart these conversations early and oftenEquip children to make wise decisions in dating and relationshipsView marriage through God’s purpose—not personal fulfillment📌 Marriage doesn’t happen by accident—and neither does preparation.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!Get your FREE Homeschool Survival KitSupport the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked.

Are we preparing our children for marriage—or unintentionally delaying it?In this powerful excerpt from the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, host Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill, Executive Director of Church & Family Ministry at Renewanation, to talk about what it truly means to prepare our children for marriage in a culture that discourages it.Dr. Mulvihill challenges modern assumptions about dating, marriage, and family, urging Christian parents to think biblically—not culturally—about relationships.

AI Isn’t Neutral: How Christian Parents Must Prepare Their Kids to Think - Dr. Renton Rathbun
Artificial intelligence isn’t just changing how our kids learn—it’s changing how they think.In this powerful conversation, Meeke Addison interviews Dr. Renton Rathbun about how Christian parents should respond to AI and prepare their children to use technology without surrendering their God-given ability to think, discern, and bear His image.Dr. Rathbun explains why AI isn’t merely a research tool, but a system that increasingly does the thinking for us—and why this shift poses serious risks for children who are still forming habits of concentration, reasoning, and wisdom.You’ll learn:Why AI is fundamentally different from earlier technologies like GoogleHow algorithms shape what information our children see—and don’t seeWhy knowledge is not the same as dataThe core thinking skills Christian parents must intentionally cultivateHow raising good thinkers is essential to raising faithful image-bearers🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!Get your FREE Homeschool Survival KitSupport the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked.

Are We Discipling Kids—or Just Entertaining Them? Dr. Josh Mulvihill
Many churches know how to attract children and teens—but are we truly discipling them?In this powerful excerpt from the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast, host Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to discuss one of the most pressing issues facing the church today: the rise of the attraction-entertainment model in children’s and youth ministry.Dr. Mulvihill explains why fun and games, paired with “Bible-lite” teaching, fail to prepare kids for the real spiritual challenges they face—and why parents, not pastors, are ultimately responsible for their children’s discipleship. Together, they explore the critical difference between the roles of parent as steward and pastor as shepherd, and why core doctrines and apologetics must be taught from the youngest ages.If you’re a Christian parent, homeschool family, pastor, or church leader, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what faithful discipleship truly looks like.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!Get your FREE Homeschool Survival KitSupport the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked.

How AI Is Reshaping Our Children’s Thinking—and Why Christian Parents Should Care - Dr. Renton Rathbun
What does artificial intelligence mean for Christian parenting—and for our children’s spiritual formation?In this powerful conversation, Meeke Addison sits down with Dr. Renton Rathbun to explore a theology of AI and how emerging technologies like ChatGPT may be quietly reshaping the way our children think, reason, and make moral decisions.Dr. Rathbun explains why AI doesn’t just assist us—it can replace essential image-bearing work that God designed humans to do. Drawing from Colossians 3:10 and Ephesians 4:24, he unpacks how knowledge, righteousness, and holiness are central to what it means to be made in the image of God—and why outsourcing those functions to AI is spiritually dangerous.Christian parents and homeschool families will learn:Why thinking is not neutralHow AI can subtly shape moral reasoningWhat it means to guard our children’s image-bearing workHow to prepare kids to engage AI wisely without surrendering discernmentThis is a must-watch discussion for Christian parents navigating technology, education, and discipleship in the age of artificial intelligence.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast for more encouragement and biblical insight.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!Get your FREE Homeschool Survival KitSupport the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked.

The Big Mistake Churches Make with Children’s Ministry - Dr. Josh Mulvihill
What is the proper role of children’s and youth ministry in the church—and where does family discipleship fit in?In this powerful excerpt, Aby Rinella sits down with Dr. Josh Mulvihill to unpack a critical issue facing churches and families today: the growing tendency to outsource discipleship to the church rather than equipping parents to lead spiritually in the home.Dr. Mulvihill explains why even well-intentioned children’s and youth ministries can unintentionally step outside God’s design when they replace—rather than support—parents. He introduces what he calls the “Superman Syndrome,” where pastors feel compelled to fill the discipleship gap when parents disengage, and why that model ultimately falls short.Together, Aby and Dr. Josh explore:Why children’s ministry was never meant to replace parentsThe return on investment of discipling parents instead of only childrenHow outsourcing education and discipleship has shaped modern church cultureWhy one hour a week at church is never enoughWhat a healthy church–family partnership actually looks likeWhether you’re a homeschool parent, a pastor, or someone involved in children’s or youth ministry, this conversation will encourage you to anchor your efforts in God’s Word—and remain faithful, even when things get hard.👉 Watch this full conversation on the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast.Ready to join the homeschool revolution?Stream Schoolhouse Rocked: The Homeschool Revolution for free!Get your FREE Homeschool Survival KitSupport the Schoolhouse Rocked Ministry!Please consider making a donation to support the ongoing ministry of Schoolhouse Rocked.
