In a culture that increasingly rejects biblical truth, how do you intentionally raise children who truly value family, God's design, and unwavering faith?

This week on the Known Legacy Podcast, the guys sit down with Matt and Andrea Crum, founders of Genuine Family Ministries. As parents of two boys navigating the same real-world pressures we all face, Matt and Andrea share their powerful story: why they left the familiar to step full-time into ministry, equipping families to stand firm with truth and love in confusing times.

They open up about the ongoing battle to disciple kids biblically—addressing tough topics like trans ideology and identity confusion—while offering practical tools, encouragement, and strategies for parents. They also tackle the current challenges churches face in upholding a biblical worldview amid cultural pushback, and how we can reaffirm God's unchanging truth in our homes.

If you're a dad wanting to lead your family with courage, protect your kids' hearts, and build a legacy that honors Christ over culture, this conversation is packed with hope, wisdom, and actionable steps. As Andrea says in her book Christ Over Culture, we don't have to fear the world our kids are growing up in—we just need to be intentional in equipping them to thrive in it.

Life is full of obstacles and echoes of our past brokenness—especially when we're stepping into something new. But are we going to let those doubts and fears rob us of everything God has planned for us?

This week on the Known Legacy Podcast, the guys sit down with Mike Elkins, a missionary with His Voice Global. Mike shares his powerful story: from running a successful company to hearing God's clear call to leave it all behind and pursue full-time ministry in Africa. He opens up about wrestling with past wounds and self-doubt, yet ultimately taking that bold leap of faith—moving his entire family to South Sudan to serve orphans and vulnerable communities.

Tune in as Mike inspires us all to step out courageously, trusting God to pour out His grace, bring healing, and empower us to do extraordinary things for His Kingdom.

Life moves fast. One minute you’re in the front seat of your child’s life… and before you know it, you’re on the sidelines watching them take the wheel. Between work, bills, pressure, and pace, it’s easy to drift instead of lead.

Ferris Bueller said it best: “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
That’s especially true when it comes to family.

Wherever you are on the journey—diapers or diplomas—the guys unpack three things every dad must never back down from if he wants to lead well and leave a lasting legacy.

As you look toward 2026, make these three commitments part of who you are as a father.

The headlines have been filled with stories of Christian leaders facing serious accusations of wrongdoing and abuse. So how do we respond when the people we admire—and trust—let us down?

This week on the podcast, we’re joined by Matt Hammitt, who brings honest insight into the state of the Christian music industry. From the recent controversy surrounding Michael Tait of the Newsboys to the broader issue of leadership failures in the church, Matt helps us navigate these tough but important conversations.

If you’ve been hurt by a leader in the church, or you’re wrestling with how to respond when a hero falls, this episode is for you. God wants to lead us from bitterness toward healing and restoration—and this conversation points the way.

2026 is sneaking up on us—but hold up, 2025 isn’t clocking out just yet.And if you’re anything like the rest of us “responsible adults,” you’re currently juggling holiday shopping, family schedules, and trying to remember where you hid the presents… or if you even bought them. That’s why Known Legacy has dropped a free, super-simple resource to help you turn the chaos into actual memories—on purpose! Each day gives your family a moment to breathe, reset, and refocus on the hope only Jesus can offer… instead of refocusing on the smoke alarm from that “experimental holiday recipe.” So before the new year crashes the party, take the moments you’ve got and add a little intentionality. Your family (and your sanity) will thank you. Here is the link to sign up for the free Known Legacy Intentional Christmas Advent
