For all of us with children, the instinct to protect them probably started the moment they took their first breath. It’s easy to know how to protect them physically, but what about protecting their spirit? In this episode, we talk about some specific steps to take to protect the spirit of your children based on our 20 years of being parents. We also talk about the differences from a Father and a Mother’s perspective and walk through some very real scenarios when we have failed, what we have learned and when we have succeeded with our protecting our children’s spirits.
Scenarios we cover:
- When other adults with authority in your children’s lives (coaches, teachers, family members) speak life or destruction into your children.
- How to know when to let them fail as a learning tool vs protect them to prevent failure
- How to protect them when friends betray or hurt them.
- How to teach them to guard their heart and spirit when they start dating
- As parents - when to let one parent lead and when to back off
This topic is very near and dear to Jackie’s heart. As her husband, I am in awe of her ability to be in tune with our children’s spirits and we are so excited to share our thoughts today.

This is the first episode in our Destination Growth series. In this series, we will each be applying lessons from a book, an article or another medium. We will approach it from a his and hers perspective and then offer advice for one another and for our marriage based on the topic. We won’t know what each other will say until we record, so there might be some fireworks! The first book we review today is “The Obstacle is the Way” by Ryan Holiday.
