Happy Thanksgiving week! We are so thankful for you, our listeners, and the time we spend growing in faith together. This podcast is a special place for us to be real, learn, and grow, and I am so grateful for every moment! This week, I am beyond thrilled to sit down with the one and only Bob Goff. We’re diving into his newest book, Chasing Whimsy.

Here’s what you’ll hear in today’s episode:

• Insights on fostering faith in your family and raising kids with a love for God and life.
• How do you cultivate a spirit of whimsy and joy in your family life, and why does it matter?
• Embracing teachable moments and living with a sense of adventure, even in the everyday.
• Tips for recognizing and celebrating the unique differences of each of your children.

Bob Goff is a New York Times bestselling author, including works like Love Does and Everybody, Always. A former lawyer, he left his practice to pursue writing and speaking full-time. Bob’s infectious energy, storytelling, and heart for adventure and faith inspire people around the globe. He is also the founder of Love Does, a nonprofit dedicated to pursuing justice and hope for those in need.

This conversation is packed with laughter, wisdom, and practical ways to infuse whimsy, adventure, and meaningful moments into your family life. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
