We will dive into the everyday lives of Christians to see how they handle their day-to-day; the blessings, the struggles and everything in between. We'll take a deep look at how Christians maneuver in a "not so Christian" world.

Kaden talks with Debra Stewart, a middle school principal, about life as a Christian in our school system. We’re going to dive into some of the do’s and don’ts when bringing God into our schools.
