They Come With Instructions
They Come With Instructions is a powerful and insightful podcast inspired by the book of the same name, They Come With Instructions: Biblical Principles for Raising Children. Hosted by author and speaker René Anderson, this podcast challenges the notion that children don't come with instructions-because they do. Rooted in biblical wisdom, each episode provides practical parenting tips, guidance, and encouragement for raising children in today's ever-changing world.
But this podcast goes beyond parenting. René dives into real life challenges-finances, relationships, marriage, and personal growth-offering faith-based principles to navigate life's complexities. With transparency, authenticity, and heartfelt storytelling, she shares personal experiences and hard-earned wisdom to inspire and uplift.
Whether you're a parent seeking direction, an individual looking for encouragement, or someone striving to live a purpose-driven life, They Come With Instructions is here to equip you with the tools and faith you need.
Tune in and be empowered.
They Come With Instructions
Grief, Grace, and Guardianship w/ Tanya Franklin
In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and colleague Tonya Franklin—a woman whose strength has carried her through one of the most unexpected seasons of her life. When tragedy struck her family earlier this year, Tanya found herself navigating grief, new responsibility, and a role she never imagined stepping into.
In this heartfelt conversation, Tanya shares how she’s supporting little Leilani, managing her own emotions, and learning to balance honesty, compassion, and resilience day by day. Her story is tender, raw, and full of the quiet strength that so many women carry without applause.
Join us for a powerful close to Season 1 as we talk about love, loss, unexpected assignments, and the grace to keep going even when life takes a turn you never planned for.
