  • FAREWELL EPISODE: 10 YEARS of Parenting Advice in ONE Video! - The Mystery of Parenthood - 219
    Nov 7 2023

    The Mystery of Parenthood's Farewell episode! In one of their best shows ever, Trey and Stephanie Cashion distill more than a decade's worth of parenting advice and philosophy in one final episode.

    Discover a profound journey into the heart of Catholic family life with The Mystery of Parenthood — the final chapter. In this touching farewell episode, our hosts, guided by faith and love, condense a decade of wisdom into a reflective narrative. From the tender practice of family prayer to the sacramental view of marriage and parenting, this video encapsulates their transformative approach to raising children with God's grace.

    Tune in to witness a poignant reflection on the challenges and triumphs of Catholic parenting. As the hosts share their insights on the "tent poles" of their philosophy — sacramentality, reaching the heart, and the "funnel" approach to freedom and responsibility — viewers are invited to explore the profound impact of integrating faith deeply into family life.

    The episode offers a treasure trove of practical advice, heartwarming stories, and spiritual encouragement, emphasizing the joys of nurturing children to love God, value family, and lead a purpose-driven life. Whether you're a parent seeking guidance or simply interested in the Catholic perspective on family, this video promises an enriching experience filled with faith, hope, and love. As the hosts bid farewell, they leave behind a legacy of wisdom, a call to prayerful parenting, and an open invitation to partake in the mystery of parenthood — where every challenge is an opportunity to witness God's miraculous work in the family.

    This episode features a special surprise for Trey and Stephanie that can be best viewed on our YouTube page!

  • 218 - Storytelling Generates Teachable Moments
    Jun 6 2023

    "'I woke up . . . in the middle of the night to a burning cross in our front yard'... (my Grandfather) was telling his story as a little kid.  He said 'I can remember them banging on the door saying Mr. King, we're not after you, we just want your wife and kids' and he remembers (his father) saying get behind me, he put a chair down, loaded a gun, and he said 'you can't come in here and get 'em but if you do try to come in here the first six of y'all are going to get killed'"

    Trey Cashion, host, and Caleb Brawner, guest co-host, discuss the importance of storytelling in parenting as a means of generating teachable moments, examples of virtue, and showing how God actually works in our lives.

  • 217 - Marriage as the Foundational Center of the Family - Parenting in the Funnel Part 2
    May 23 2023

    "We have to make sure that our marriage, which is the source (obviously with God's help) . . . of this family as a whole is foundational—it is the center of this family—and if that's not strong, everything else falls apart."

     

    Trey and Stephanie Cashion continue their discussion about parenting in the "funnel" from last week. They discuss the necessity of making your marriage the foundational principle of your family, using sports and extracurriculars as teachable moments (including time management and prioritization), and the importance remembering that each of your children is unique and unrepeatable (and should be parented as such).
