Conversations with the Poster Child – An Interview with My Son, Duke
In this heartfelt and candid episode, I sit down with my oldest son, Duke—the one I proudly call the ”poster child” for They Come with Instructions. Though his journey hasn’t been without challenges and mistakes, Duke’s story is a powerful testament to resilience, redemption, and the fruit of biblical parenting.
With thoughtful pauses, brutal honesty, and a witty sense of humor, Duke shares his experiences with refreshing transparency. His life reflects the strength and dignity that can emerge when biblical principles are planted early and nurtured with love, discipline, and grace. Even in the face of setbacks, the seeds of godly instruction took root—and now they bear witness to the truth that parenting God’s way works.
This episode will remind and encourage parents that God's Word never returns void. It's a conversation every family should hear—filled with truth, hope, and a few good laughs along the way.
