If you believe that being a Christian means a clean house, well-behaved kids and mostly happy feelings, this week’s episode from Faithtree Resources with Dr. Philip Mamalakis may come as a relief. We’re counting down to the launch of season three by revisiting some of the most practical moments from our archives, and this conversation is one of our favorites. Dr. Mamalakis explains why peace isn’t the absence of chaos, shares why our kids need a peaceful mother more than a spotless home and reminds us that naming our guilt out loud can loosen its grip.
