Courageous Men

God Doesn’t Have Any Grandchildren: Parenting as a Steward, Not an Owner

Whitney Sewell Season 1 Episode 53

What if the kids you tuck into bed every night don’t actually belong to you?

In this episode of the Courageous Men by Whitney Sewell podcast, Whitney unpacks a freeing truth every Christian father needs to hear: your children are God’s first. Fatherhood isn’t ownership—it’s stewardship. And when you stop carrying the weight of being the one who has to get it all right, you make room for a deeper, steadier kind of leadership.

If you’ve ever felt like your calling is pulling you in 12 directions—business, ministry, ambition, responsibility—this conversation will help you breathe again. Whitney reminds us that the Father loves your kids even more than you do, and your job isn’t perfection… it’s presence, obedience, and courage in the right order.

This episode is a reset for dads who feel pressure to prove their calling by sacrificing the very people they’re called to lead.
