Broadcasting live from Cleveland, Ohio, Danny and Brittney Serpell tackle some of the most urgent and complex issues facing the Church today—from fallen leaders and disconnected marriages to the everyday challenge of offering correction without losing connection. With real audience questions and vulnerable stories, this episode unpacks how a lack of accountability and self-awareness is tearing apart families, marriages, and ministries—and what we can do to build cultures of truth, trust, and transformation.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why so many churches and leaders are breaking down—and how to prevent it
• The dangers of “king-style” leadership and how it isolates pastors from correction
• How to offer correction in marriage without punishing or controlling
• The difference between healthy shame and toxic shame—and how to tell which one you’re using
• How to build a marriage culture where truth is welcome, not weaponized
• What repentance actually looks like (it’s not just saying “I’m sorry”)

Key Takeaways:

• Unaccountable leaders aren’t just at risk—they’re already isolated. Culture breakdown starts at the top when connection is replaced by control.
• Marriage correction without self-awareness leads to resentment and disconnection. You can’t disciple your spouse into being like you.
• Healthy shame leads to change and reconnection. Toxic shame leads to punishment and hiding.
• If you’re spending more than 5 minutes explaining how hurt you are, you're probably doing it wrong. Tell the truth about you—not them.
• Repentance isn’t confession. It’s change. And it only works when both parties stay connected and do the work.

In this heartfelt and unfiltered episode from their stop in North Tonawanda, Danny and Brittney Serpell dive deep into some of the hardest relational dynamics—what to do when connection seems impossible. From family members who resist correction to church leaders who reject feedback, this episode explores how to keep your love on when everything in you wants to shut down.

Through honest audience questions and raw discussion, Danny and Brittney model what it means to stay powerful, protect your peace, and lead with love in your family, church, and community.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• How to communicate needs without demanding behavior change

• Why your goal in conflict must be connection—not being right

• What to do when your parent (or child) values control over relationship

• How to maintain boundaries without turning your love off

• Why accountability in leadership is essential for a healthy church

• The difference between harmony and true connection in marriage and parenting

Key Takeaways:

• Love doesn’t require agreement—it requires ownership. You can tell someone what you need without trying to control them.
• Correction that flows through connection brings change—anything else feels like punishment.
• When someone chooses being “right” over being in relationship, you still get to choose love and protect your peace.
• Healthy leadership starts with accountability. If no one can give you feedback, you're not leading—you're ruling.
• Raising whole and healthy kids is about consistent love, not perfection. Connection, not control, is your greatest legacy.

Live from Talent, Oregon (just outside Ashland), Danny and Brittney share insights on cultivating spiritual connection and growth in everyday family life. From hosting the presence of God with your kids in creative and playful ways to managing triggers in marriage with mature, loving responses—the conversation is rich with practical wisdom, heartfelt encouragement, and replay-worthy truths.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• How to invite God into your home in fresh, age-appropriate ways.

• Why holding space for creativity and play shapes spiritual growth in kids.

• How to identify—and lovingly address—when someone lacks awareness of deeper issues.

• The “Kylo Five” model for regulating yourself with intention in relationships: Power, Love over Fear, Connection, Respectful Communication, and Healthy Boundaries.

• How to respond to triggers with love, humility, and spiritual fuel instead of defensiveness or shame.

Key Takeaways:

• Spiritual connection doesn't require perfect formats; it thrives where there's playfulness, honesty, and openness to God’s work.

• Ease off “doing church everywhere.” God shows up most powerfully in everyday life when you're paying attention to your kids and how they're connecting.

• Don't try to fix someone who hasn’t acknowledged a problem—scaffolding help only works when it’s invited.

• Choose to respond from strength, not from pain: “My God has called me. I am prepared. I may not feel prepared—but I am.”

• In conflict, say, “My goal with you is connection,” and communicate your experience first—then extend grace and set boundaries.
