Ep#99: What Does it Mean to "Be a Family of Character"?
May 07, 2024 Season 1 Episode 99
Jordan Langdon

Stepping into the arena of parenting can often feel like navigating without a map. What if you had a playbook that promised not just good behavior but a legacy of strong moral fiber in your children?  Did you know that's what we're all about at Families of Character?

Belonging to a community is KEY when navigating marriage and family life. Have you ever wondered what it means to be a "FAMILY OF CHARACTER"?

In this episode, I share with you some simple, but intentional ways that families in our community are living the FOC WAY...& it's open to your family, too! No matter your family dynamics!

Imagine holding weekly family huddles (a practice that might seem more suited to a sports team than a household). Yet, these gatherings are about more than just coordinating busy schedules—they're about reinforcing a shared vision, celebrating progress, and nurturing virtues like honesty, respect, and self-control. These moments are the building blocks of a resilient family culture, providing the courage to stand firm on your values in a world that's constantly shifting.

Join me as I share heartwarming stories and practical advice that illustrate the profound impact of this proactive approach on families. You'll hear how a personalized Family Mission Statement, a simple Weekly Family Huddle and a common goal to focus on will anchor your parenting efforts.

Being a "Family of Character" means you’re guided by your very own Family Mission Statement. You value Weekly Family Huddles to align your calendar and set the course for your week. When family life feels hectic, you reprioritize and say no to the things you need to, in order to get back on track. You are not easily swayed by what the culture says is “ok” for kids today. You’re willing to stand up for what is good and just, even when it’s hard. You educate your kids, being their primary mentor - preparing them for what they will face outside your home. When family life throws you a curveball, you courageously ask your community for help. You offer help to others. In your family, you value honesty, integrity, respect, responsibility, organization and self-control and are intentional about instilling these traits in your kids. THIS is your family! THIS is possible! Living THIS family lifestyle will set you free!
