Episode Synopsis

Israel and Brooke Wayne answer three big questions: how to confront a teen’s secret social browsing without breaking trust, when video-based learning helps (and when it harms the parent-child bond), and how a grandparent can wisely respond to an 11-year-old’s sudden goth style and isolation. Keeping the gospel central—training hearts as well as habits—they offer practical steps: tech timelines, family-room devices, time-boxed access, honest conversation with consequences, and a gentle, persistent presence that cultivates self-control and discernment. Biblical parenting is hard—but you don’t have to figure it out alone.Each week, Raising Them Up tackles real-life parenting questions with biblical wisdom, practical help, and gospel hope. From screen time and sibling conflict to discipleship, marriage, and homeschooling, hosts Israel and Brook Wayne bring decades of parenting experience and a deep love for God’s Word to your everyday challenges.Short, honest, and full of grace—this is Christian parenting help you can trust.Submit your question at [Raising Them Up](generations.org/raisingthemup) or call 1-800-223-6567.Find more from the Waynes at [Family Renewal](familyrenewal.org) and [Generations](https://store.generations.org/collections/israel-waynes-books)This has been a production of the Generations Media Network.

For the church to be healthy, it must be led by men of integrity, humble men, men of love, and men who lay down their lives for the sheep. Additionally, for churches to be strong, they need to be made up of healthy, growing families led by faithful husbands and fathers who direct their family to believe in the Lord Jesus, and to walk in God’s ways.[Shepherd's Conference](generations.org/shepherds)A Hive of Busy Bees
