What does it mean to be transformed, changed, and reshaped as an antidote to being conformed to the world? In this episode, Sally ponders these ideas as she discusses chapters four and five of the Life-giving Table and teaches us about how family culture has the distinct and grace-giving power to both change and protect us. She inspires listeners to instill a sense of "this is who we are" and "this is what we believe" into the hearts of her children as they gather at the table, and gives tools to not only create a vision to define our own family culture, but to practically cultivate a legacy.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:Discipleship Principle: Practicing the Rhythms of life regularly with your loved ones creates a secure feeling of belonging- of being welcomed and able to share convictions and faith in a community where one belongs.
-That your family culture needs to be a stronger pull than the culture of the world--you have to define it in such a way that your children will love it, flourish in it, grow in it and feel they belong
-That a unique family culture does not happen by chance and that you must fight to keep it going
- Why creating a family culture is particularly important in our too busy, fast paced and demanding worldly culture
-How to cultivate daily rhythms that keep us anchored in the storms of life
-Creating a cultural battle plan
-How a Kingdom culture means we are stewards of God's messages
-How to create a culture of honor, where our children recognize the significance and worth of human beings created in God's image
-How to create a culture of hospitality, where it becomes a pattern to serve others
-Defining a family culture for YOUR family and determining what characteristics you want it to reflect
-How to cultivate a culture of conversation
-Navigating squabbles at the table and teaching our children how to consider one another wisely.
"THAT'S SOMETHING I'VE NOTICED ABOUT FOOD; WHENEVER THERE'S A CRISES IF WE CAN GET PEOPLE TO EATING NORMALLY THINGS GET BETTER." -MADELEINE L'ENGLEActs 2:42 NASB"They were continually devoting themselves to the apostle's teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer."
Luke 24:14-15- "They were talking with each other about all these things which had taken place. While they were talking and discussing, Jesus Himself approached and began traveling with them."
Table-Discipleship Principle:
SHAPING THE MIND AND HEART THROUGH REPEATED DISCUSSIONS ABOUT TRUTH, BEAUTY, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND ENGAGING IN THESE IDEAS REGULARLY SHAPES CONVICTIONS THAT LAST A LIFETIME."The most influential of all education factors is the conversation in a child's home." William Temple
