Are We Raising Rebels? Biblical Parenting vs. Gentle Parenting Part 2
<p><strong>Biblical parenting vs. gentle parenting is one of the biggest conversations Christian parents are facing today. In Part 2, we’re talking about obedience, discipline, homeschooling, worldview, sleep training, and how to raise children to obey God in a confused culture.</strong></p><p>What happens when we raise children to question every authority, but still expect them to obey the Lord?</p><p>In this episode of Walking Defined, we continue our conversation on <strong>biblical parenting vs. gentle parenting</strong> and unpack what it means to <strong>train up a child in the way they should go</strong>. We talk about why obedience matters, why children need firm and loving boundaries, and how Christian parents can disciple their children instead of letting culture shape their worldview.</p><p>We talk about:</p><p>• Biblical parenting and why obedience matters</p><p>• Gentle parenting, discipline, and the danger of raising rebels</p><p>• What it means to train up a child biblically</p><p>• The difference between harsh parenting and loving correction</p><p>• Why consistency and boundaries help children feel secure</p><p>• Homeschooling, public school, and worldview formation</p><p>• How parents can teach children truth before culture gets there first</p><p>• Sleep training, resilience, and fear-based parenting</p><p>• Grandparent boundaries and respecting the parents’ authority</p><p>• Adult children, marriage, and biblical family order</p><p>This conversation is honest, direct, and deeply countercultural. We are not claiming to parent perfectly. We are learning, repenting, growing, and asking the Lord to teach us how to steward children well.</p><p>If you are a <strong>Christian mom</strong>, future mom, grandmother, spiritual auntie, or woman trying to understand parenting through the lens of Scripture, this episode will challenge you to think long-term, reject fear-based parenting, and trust God’s design for the family.</p><p>Listen to Part 1 of <strong>Biblical Parenting vs. Gentle Parenting</strong> (Episode 27) before this episode for the full conversation on discipline, obedience, and raising children according to Scripture.Subscribe for honest conversations about taking Scripture seriously in a confused culture.</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://youtu.be/SB25fLSsCy0?si=8e63SarVPtRFUJD_">Watch this Episode on YOUTUBE</a></p><p></p><p>Connect With Us: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:walkingdefined@gmail.com">walkingdefined@gmail.com</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Walking Defined:</p><p>YouTube | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@WalkingDefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Instagram | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Facebook | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>TikTok | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>X | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p></p><p>🎧 Listen & Subscribe:</p><p>Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.</p><p>New episodes every Tuesday.</p>

Leaving Legalism, Finding Jesus | Rebekah Eckhardt’s Testimony of Faith, Fear, and Israel
<p>What happens when your faith has been shaped by legalism, religious confusion, suffering, and a deep love for Israel?</p><p>In this episode of Walking Defined, Baylee sits down with special guest Rebekah Eckhardt to hear her powerful testimony of growing up in a Christian family, walking through legalistic patterns, living and serving in Israel, and learning to keep Jesus at the center of her faith.</p><p>Rebekah shares about a season of serious illness that brought her face-to-face with the fragility of life and the faithfulness of God. Through that suffering, she learned what it means to rest in Him instead of striving to prove herself.</p><p>We also talk about:</p><p>Legalism and religious confusion Why Jesus has to remain the cornerstone of our faith How suffering can deepen our trust in God Rebekah’s experience living and serving in Israel Fear, spiritual warfare, and trusting God with our lives Marriage, sanctification, and letting God shape us Why Christians should be careful not to drift from the gospel Israel, antisemitism, prophecy, and the return of Jesus The power of testimony and speaking truth out loud</p><p>This conversation is honest, weighty, and full of wisdom for anyone who has wrestled through confusion, fear, legalism, or trying to understand where they stand with God.</p><p>If you’ve ever felt like you needed to have every answer, earn God’s love, or figure out your faith perfectly, this episode is a reminder that Jesus is enough.</p><p></p><p>Connect With Us: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:walkingdefined@gmail.com">walkingdefined@gmail.com</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Walking Defined:</p><p>YouTube | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@WalkingDefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Instagram | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Facebook | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>TikTok | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>X | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p></p><p>🎧 Listen & Subscribe:</p><p>Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.</p><p>New episodes every Tuesday.</p>

Biblical Parenting vs. Gentle Parenting | Are We Raising Kids to Obey God?
<p>Are we raising children to follow their feelings, or training them to obey the Lord?</p><p>In this episode of Walking Defined, we’re unpacking one of the most controversial conversations in Christian culture today: parenting.</p><p>The world tells parents that discipline is harmful, obedience is outdated, and children should be led by their emotions. But what does the Bible actually say?</p><p>We talk about:</p><ul><li>Biblical discipline and why obedience matters</li><li>The difference between loving correction and harsh parenting</li><li>Why gentle parenting can become a feelings-first approach</li><li>How parents can prepare children to obey God later in life</li><li>Why doing the hard work now matters for who your children become</li><li>The importance of a unified marriage in parenting</li><li>Why your job is not to make your child happy, but to raise them well</li><li>How culture is shaping children before parents realize it</li></ul><p>This conversation is direct, countercultural, and rooted in the belief that Scripture is still true, still applicable, and still the standard for how we live.</p><p>If you’re a Christian mom feeling confused, convicted, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, this episode is for you.</p><p>We are not claiming to parent perfectly. We are learning, wrestling, repenting, and growing too. But we believe parents have been entrusted with a sacred responsibility, and culture cannot be the loudest voice shaping our children.</p><p>Subscribe for honest conversations about taking Scripture seriously in a confused culture.</p><p></p><p>Connect With Us: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:walkingdefined@gmail.com">walkingdefined@gmail.com</a></p><p></p><p>Follow Walking Defined:</p><p>YouTube | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/@WalkingDefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Instagram | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>Facebook | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/walkingdefined/">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>TikTok | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p>X | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/walkingdefined">@WalkingDefined</a></p><p></p><p>🎧 Listen & Subscribe:</p><p>Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.</p><p>New episodes every Tuesday.</p>
