Upside-Down Parenting
Podcast Description
Do you feel overwhelmed by the responsibility of helping your kids see the world the way God does? Does parenting sometimes leave you feeling disoriented—like you're spinning upside-down?
You're not alone. We love our kids and want more than anything for them to grow up with flourishing faith. Each episode of this podcast will give you practical insight, biblical wisdom, and encouragement for the journey. We're here to walk through both the hard stuff and the everyday stuff with you. By connecting truth with relationships, we can create a powerful, lasting influence in a child's life. When our kids experience both—the clarity of biblical truth and the security of God’s love, and yours—it creates a space for real transformation.
If parenting feels upside-down sometimes, that’s okay—following God’s design often is upside-down compared to everything around us, and that’s exactly what makes it powerful.
Welcome to Upside-Down Parenting from Summit Ministries. Let’s journey together.

Parenting kids is challenging—especially when you want them to stand firm in their faith in a world full of confusion and pressure. But guiding them doesn’t mean controlling every decision or striving for “perfect parenting.” In this episode, part two of our discussion with Alicia Bennett from Mobilizer Mom, we walk you through practical ways to guide your teen’s faith, create space for honest questions, and nurture resilient, Christ-centered young people who truly own their beliefs. She shares her own journey from feeling overwhelmed and stuck to discovering joy and freedom in parenting through Christ.
