The modern culture offers no wisdom when it comes to running a family.
In fact, it's designed to burden and disrupt God's good design for family.

- Implementing a weekly Sabbath

- Seeing birth order as an intentional gift from God

| 0:23.3 | So part of the reality is there's a natural nature, there's a naturalness to this birth order, |

| 1:28.0 | to introduce to you guys to. But Justin is, he's created. I want to maybe start by just, |
