Countercultural Parenting with Lee Nienhuis: Episode #46

Countercultural Parenting with Lee Nienhuis Martha Mary Show Jenn Hand Katie Reid podcast

The failure of personal and collective character in our culture is gravely obvious, especially now. How did we get here? How do we experience lasting change? Today’s podcast guest, Lee Nienhuis (the original Mary), shares real hope for our world’s current problems.

In our current culture it’s tempting to get lax and it’s easy to feel disheartened when it comes to matters of character. Thankfully, Lee Nienhuis has diligently and boldly laid out a guidebook to reorient parents with their God-given responsibility to raise children who live under His authority and do some earthly good. I stand with Lee in believing that revival is possible in this generation and the next, beginning with a sub-group who is willing to go against the status quo and train their kids in the countercultural ways of Christ.

Listen to the latest episode over here, on our podcast webpage, or access Episode #46 on your favorite podcast app.

The path of the righteous is level; you clear a straight path for the righteous.

We are ripe for revival in a way that we've never been before. @comingalivejenn #marthamaryshow Click To Tweet

What if Martha had taken offense at Jesus’ correction? What if she wouldn’t have let Jesus transform her? Martha positioned herself to receive His discipline and a miracle happened. And we’re still talking about it, today. -Lee Nienhuis

A countercultural movement happens when a subculture (a group within the larger culture) reaches critical mass and there is a tipping point that happens and culture actually swings the other direction. -Lee Nienhuis

Prayer and repentance are integral components of revival. @leenienhuis #counterculturalparenting #revival Click To Tweet

Revival changes the world, shapes a nation, and start in our homes. -Lee Nienhuis
