Being a dad doesn’t stop when your kids grow up. As Reverend Elmo Winters shares in this episode, your kids constantly watch what you do, so the example you set will shape their future. Tune in to hear an important conversation about intentionality, racial reconciliation, and kingdom-focused living.

Key Takeaways

  • Set a good example for your kids by walking out what you talk about.
  • Everyone needs someone in their life to call out and draw out what they can’t see in themselves.
  • Be open-minded, quick to listen, and slow to speak—regardless of another person’s race or culture.
  • Most fathers around the world want the same thing: to provide, to give advice, to be respected, and to be a good leader.
  • Never put ministry or the church above your family.

Key Quotes

  • 17:44 - "I've learned to be quick, quick, quick to listen and slow to speak. Regardless of who you are encountering, regardless of what culture they're from, I believe we can learn from others. We can learn a lot from other people. I love cultures. I love different people. It's important that when we speak that we need to understand that our words have power. The Word of God says that we have in our tongue the power of life and death. So when we speak before young men, ladies in our families, your daughters, you ought to be speaking life, speaking positively. Let them see that."
