Podcast Overview

How to protect your family's attention in a world designed to steal it. What biblical manhood and womanhood look like when you strip away the cultural noise. How to build something together as a family — a business, a homestead, a legacy — without handing your life over to debt or a schedule someone else controls. What it means to disciple your children not just in faith, but in work, in character, and in calling. How to find — and be — the kind of community that actually sharpens you. What courtship, marriage, and family culture look like when you refuse to let the world define them for you.<br /></p><p>Screens and devices. College alternatives. Vocational discipleship.

But they've made a decision: they will not drift. They will not outsource the most important work they'll ever do.

Who Decides How Many Children You Have? (Ep 17)
<p>Are these all yours? Do you know what causes that?<br /></p><p>Daniel and Allison Hartman have heard every comment a family with 11 children collects. This episode answers the question underneath all of them, and it is bigger than any headcount: who actually gets to decide?</p><p>They told their premarital counselor they were planning on four children. Daniel quietly hoped for twelve. Then Scripture rewrote the plan, and what followed was never a numbers game. It was a trust game.<br /></p><p>In this episode:</p><p>- The moment early in marriage that shifted how they thought about planning a family</p><p>- Psalm 127 and the Hebrew word behind "heritage," an entrusted portion, not a burden</p><p>- The movement people accuse them of, and why building identity on a headcount is idolatry</p><p>- Money, time, and patience: the three objections every large family hears, and how each one collapsed in the Hartman home</p><p>- The friend who lost a baby, and what trusting God with your womb actually promises</p><p>- What Daniel and Allison say to the couple who is outnumbered, tired, and hearing it from everyone<br /></p><p>"Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one's youth." Psalm 127:4 NKJV<br /></p><p>Subscribe at <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://ArrowsAndAcres.com" target="_blank">ArrowsAndAcres.com</a> and never miss an episode.</p><p>Ready to go deeper than the podcast?

The Chore for Life: Ditch the Chart, Raise an Adult (Ep 16)
<p>Only about 1 in 4 children today have regular chores. Prior generations would not recognize that number, and neither does the research. One of the longest running studies on adult success ever conducted found two predictors that outrank GPA, income, and talent: loving relationships and doing chores as a child.<br /></p><p>In this episode, Daniel and Allison open up how their home of 13 actually runs. No sticker charts, no rotating lists. Every child owns a chore for life, from the three-year-old gathering eggs to the fourteen-year-old planning groceries and managing the family schedule.<br /></p><p>Inside this episode:</p><p>- The chore for life system, and why every chart they tried failed</p><p>- Age-by-age ownership: what a three-year-old, a nine-year-old, and a fourteen-year-old should be running</p><p>- Why "it's not my chore" is a heart problem, not a scheduling problem</p><p>- How older children train younger ones to take over, and why that's how their daughters could get married without the house missing a step</p><p>- The buy-in principle: children who are part of the work don't walk away from the family at 18</p><p>"Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6 NKJV<br /></p><p>Chores are not a punishment. They are a training ground for stewardship, diligence, and adulthood. This is how you raise adults, not children.<br /></p><p>Subscribe on your favorite podcast channel, and join the newsletter at <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://ArrowsAndAcres.com" target="_blank">ArrowsAndAcres.com</a> to be alerted when the next episode drops.</p>

The No Contact Movement: Why a Generation Is Cutting Off Their Parents (Ep 15)
<p>Somewhere between 30 and 40 percent of American adults are estranged from a family member right now. That is not a fringe statistic. That may be someone at your table.</p><p></p><p>In this episode, Daniel and Allison Hartman sit down with Randy Schrum to name the no contact movement for what it is: an ideology moving through therapy offices, social media, and college campuses that teaches a generation that cutting off your family is self-care. They separate the rare cases where distance is truly warranted from the millions of estrangements built on nothing more than differing values, and they follow the money to an industry that profits every time a family stays broken.<br /></p><p>You will hear Daniel's story of cousins in the same town who did not speak for 20 years over an offense no one could remember, why online groups now celebrate how long someone has stayed no contact, and what scripture actually commands when there is conflict in a family: go to the person, make it right, and do not let the sun go down on your wrath.<br /></p><p>Obedience is for a season. Honor is for life. And if you are a parent with an estranged child, stay to the end. The last two minutes are for you.</p><p>Scripture in this episode: Ephesians 4:26, Ephesians 6:1-3, Proverbs 13:20 (NKJV)</p>
