Families usually share things in common–the Thompsons are all Atlanta Braves fans, for instance (and all but one of our kids are South Carolina Gamecock fans, but that is another bitter story). There really is joy to be found in shared experiences and commitments within the family. When members of the family are not on the same page–like having a Clemson fan in a Carolina household–the family can experience tension.
When the tension surrounds a college football team, it can be overcome. But, there are tensions that are fare greater. If you are a follower of Jesus who lives in a family that does not share your faith, you know what it is like to live with tension. You experience the tension of having close relationships in your church that the rest of your family does not share. You probably even wrestle with the existential angst that your family members are no Christians whose eternal destiny hangs in the balance. If you are one of those people, you are not alone and this podcast is for you.
