This week on Parent Talk, Jill Hart and Neta Jackson
Getting us started on Parent Talk this week is Jill Hart of CWAHM.com!
Here’s the Podcast!
Is it really possible to work from home? Does God care about things like business and success? I’ve worked from home for more than 10 years now and I look forward to sharing my experiences, successes, failures (yes – there are many of these!) and lessons learned.
We’ll look at some practical topics like:
What are some of the options available to work from home?
How can we succeed at home?
And some Biblical topics like:
What does God say about success?
Does God have anything to say about women working from home?
Jill Hart’s entrepreneurial career began in her teens when she spent a summer working with her father who ran his own business. When he put her in charge of a Coke machine and allowed her to keep the profits, she saw the benefits of being her own boss.… continue reading

On Teen Talk, we’re opening with Bethany Jett!
Bethany Jett, Choose NOW Ministries columnist for the On Dating and a On Friendships columns, has just released her new book, The Cinderella Rule! If you’re of dating age (or you’re parenting someone who is) you need this book!!
Discover the rewards in store for those who patiently wait on the Lord for His purpose and plan.
Our world glorifies teen pregnancy, premarital sex and the role of domineering females. Girls are sexting, experimenting and initiating relationships. For young women this world is not only perilous, but deeply frustrating and disappointing.
The Cinderella Rule encourages young women to understand that God created them to be His crowning achievement and teaches them to insist that the guys in their life treat them as such. While it is fun to be pursued, readers will take an in-depth look at how young women should act when the guy worth pursuing them shows up.
When young women understand who God created them to be, they understand more fully the confidence they need to set higher standards for themselves as well as the wonderful rewards in store for those who patiently wait on the Lord for His purpose and plan.

This week on Parent Talk, Cara Putman and Nicole O’Dell on Being Supermom
(This Week’s Parent Talk Podcast)
Cara Putman is the Choose NOW Ministries columnist on the issue of Doing it All. Why do we do this to ourselves as parents? Whose standards are we trying to live up to? Will we ever feel like we’ve met the expectations society has for us? Is there a better way?
Hear from the Do-It-All Mom herself, Cara Putman. Cara is an attorney, author, professor, work-at-home-mom, homeschooler, laundress, cook, shopper, etc. She definitely does…it…all!
Cara and I will look at those things and more as we dive into this issue headfirst. You ready? I know I am! (Spoken like a true supermom!)
And, Nicole O’Dell on dealing with Tragedy
In the second segment of Parent Talk this week, I’ll be looking at what we need to do as parents to help our teens and tweens deal with tragedy and the fear it can cause. Events like the Newtown shootings, the Boston Marathon bombings, the attacks on the World Trade Center…they are real, and increasingly common events, and without the right context, they can elicit feelings of fear and unrest.… continue reading

This week on Parent Talk, John Robinson, the last days
John Robinson is going to tell us when Jesus is coming back for the church! Okay, not quite. But maybe he’ll get close. Tune in to find out.
This would be a great opportunity to get ready for the tough questions your kids are going to ask you about this subject! It may just change the way you look at the world, and the final seconds we’re in.
The Bible makes it clear no one knows the day or the hour of Christ’s return. But it doesn’t say we won’t know the month. Or the week. When every Christian simultaneously receives a message that Christ will return sometime in the next seven days, the world is thrown into stark panic. Two old friends, hardened combat veterans from the closing days of the Vietnam War, set out on a suspenseful quest to redeem that time. What they can’t know is they and their entire church have been targeted for satanic annihilation.… continue reading

First up on Teen Talk:
Along with the release of her book Glass Girl, Laura Kurk, our On Hollywood Columnist has written an amazing and through-provoking post called: Is Hollywood paying attention to domestic and dating violence against women? Here’s an excerpt:
Four women are killed every day by their partners. Two in ten teen girls admit to being physically or sexually abused in relationships. One in ten teen boys admits to being abusive. Smart girls, girls like you, can get caught up in unhealthy relationships and they’re not sure how it happened. A combination of low self-esteem, the “I can handle it” attitude, and the belief that their relationship is special, triggers the storm of abuse.
Is Hollywood paying attention?
I’m not talking about Hollywood’s poor decisions about what kinds of movies to produce. Many of them glorify violence against women.… continue reading

First on Teen Talk, Heather Burch:
Halflings scribe Heather Burch pits her 17-year-old heroine Nikki Youngblood up against her most ominous opponents to date, a demonic seeker and a fully powered Damon Vessler, in the eagerly awaited third book in the supernatural series, AVENGER (Zondervan; $14.99; April 2013).
In the exciting new sequel, fans (aka “Fanlings”) will reunite with the tomboy who, after wounding Damon in last year’s Guardian, must find the courage to defeat him once and for all.
Nikki is adjusting to life as a Halfling when she finds herself on the run from the deadly seeker Damon sent after her. With her life and those of the other Halflings (including boyfriend, Mace, and admirer, Raven) threatened, she is forced to become the hero they all know her to be. Put to the test, Nikki determines quickly that her karate sword is not the answer to conquering her adversaries, but it is her faith that is her best weapon.… continue reading

Friday at 10am EST on Parent Talk: Cameron Mathison
Friday at 11am EST on Teen Talk: Cameron Mathison
Miss the live show? No worries! You can come back for the podcast or subscribe on iTunes for FREE!
This week, I’m traveling to speak at the Ascension Convention so I have a special treat for you. Most of both shows will be a special re-airing of some past interviews you’ll want to make sure to catch. But, the first segment of both shows is an interview I pre-recorded a few days ago with CAMERON MATHISON! Eeek!
Cameron Mathison, The Carpenter’s Miracle
The Carpenter’s Miracle tells the tale of a humble small-town handyman, Josh Carey (Mathison), who finds himself at the center of media attention after attempting to resuscitate 12-year-old Luke Quinn (Grantham), the victim of a drowning accident. When the boy shows no signs of life for an hour, Josh consoles Luke’s mother, Sarah (Harrison), in the emergency room. But when he lightly touches the boy with his hand while offering a heavenward wish, the boy is suddenly revived.
Many in the town consider it a miraculous act. But Josh is not religious and doesn’t believe he had anything to do with Luke’s recovery, even after he seems to heal several others in the following days.… continue reading

First up on Teen Talk, Erin Bishop, founder of The Whatever Girls
The Whatever Girls are intentional moms and intentional daughters. We exist to empower girls to choose God’s best for their lives by exemplifying the pillars of Philippians 4:8: “whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
As one who stumbled through middle and high school making a series of poor decisions, my hearts desire is for teen girls to know their true value and identity comes from Jesus. Stability, acceptance and unconditional love are critical for shaping our daughters character.
Kids are engaging in sexual activities and experimenting with drugs and alcohol at an astounding rate and age. From bullying to girl drama to dating and pressures to perform and fit in, today’s kids have it rougher than ever. I knew if I didn’t do something radical and intentional to prepare my daughter for middle school and beyond, she could easily become another statistic.
