In this episode of the Connected Mom podcast, host Becky engages in a heartfelt conversation with Paul Gutacker about the journey of parenting, the importance of community, and the Brazos Fellows program. They discuss the challenges and joys of parenting, the significance of inviting others into family life, and how shared experiences can foster spiritual growth and connection. Paul emphasizes the need for grace in navigating different parenting styles within community and the value of commitment in relationships, especially in today’s culture of opting out. In this conversation, Paul Gutacker discusses the importance of community life as exemplified by St. Benedict, the significance of stability in relationships, and how to engage children with the church calendar. He emphasizes the need for cultivating curiosity and wonder in kids, as well as the spiritual discipline of listening in parenting. The discussion highlights practical ways to incorporate these themes into family life and the importance of doing life together in a community.
