Sunday Ripple
Sunday Ripple is a weekly podcast for people who take their faith seriously but aren't interested in pretending they have it all figured out.
Each week, Rob Anderson brings Scripture into the mess of real life — the conflicts, the comparisons, the quiet ways we drift from God without noticing — and finds the places where truth and honesty meet.
No performance. No polish. Just Rob Anderson in Homer, Alaska, a microphone, and the belief that small ripples make a big impact.
New episode every Tuesday.

Parenting Is Hard
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Parenting is one of the most sacred — and sanctifying — callings we’ll ever step into. It exposes our weaknesses, stretches our patience, and reminds us daily just how much we need God’s grace.
In this episode, Rob shares three biblical strategies for raising children that have shaped his own parenting journey:
- Modeling faith before you teach it — because kids learn most from what they see.
- Disciplining with grace and purpose — trading control for compassion.
- Praying and partnering with God — trusting Him to do what only He can in your child’s heart.
Through personal stories of fatherhood — from tender moments of worship to late-night arguments and tearful prayers — Rob invites parents to slow down, reflect, and rediscover the holy rhythm of raising children in faith.
If you’ve ever wondered whether what you’re doing matters, this episode is a reminder that it does. Every apology, every prayer, every act of patience sends ripples that reach farther than you can see.
I’d really love to hear from you. Whether this episode encouraged you, brought up a question, or just made you think, you can now send a message straight to us.
