Spiritual Formation for the Family
Spiritual Formation for the Family exists primarily to serve our CBC Family Ministry, but if you’re joining us from elsewhere, we warmly welcome you! At Central Baptist Church, our Family Ministry is dedicated to making disciples of Jesus Christ—from the womb to the empty nest.
In this podcast, we’ll cover the teachings and practices we encourage our families to engage with on their journey of spiritual formation.
This podcast is produced by Central Baptist Church in Jacksonville, Texas, and hosted by Coby Duren.

In this part two episode of Spiritual Formation on the Family, Coby sits down and continues the conversation with Larry Folden, Al Lambert, and Chesney Speaker in a deep and meaningful discussion on Spiritual Formation Across Generations.
Together, they explore how different generations experience healing and growth — and how those experiences shape the way we process pain, faith, and community. From the old “rub some dirt on it and move on” mindset to recognizing the importance of taking time to heal, the discussion offers an honest look at what it means to grow through life’s struggles.
They also reflect on the idea of vulnerability — how previous generations were often taught to stay strong and keep emotions private, and how learning to be open and honest with one another brings powerful healing within community.
The group wrestles with important questions: What are we passing on to the next generation? What have we already passed on? Has the way our generation processes things affected the generation before us — and will it shape those who come after? Through real stories and honest reflection, they share wisdom, strengths, and lessons that bridge the gap between generations.
