Episode 26: Is Ministry Ruining My Kids’ Lives? (with Holly Knight)

Ben and Lynley are excited to welcome Holly Knight to talk about this question that’s on the mind of many ministry leaders who parent.  Holly and Bradley Knight have served on the worship team at Prestonwood Baptist Church and Brooklyn Tabernacle.  They are raising five children in the glass house, and have experienced some dramatic transitions in their ministry life.  In this episode Ben, Lynley, and Holly talk about calling and how it has affected their children, their family dynamic, and their personal walk with God.

Quotes:

“When we get into the pain of it, we start to doubt the past and think maybe we weren’t called, and that only makes it worse.”

“That obedience that God calls us to, is also the obedience that he will call the kids to.”

“Serving the Lord might take my kids to some dangerous places. But I’m more concerned with their sanctification than their safety.”
