Some Assembly Required: Because kids don't come with an instruction manual, is a podcast for real parents raising real kids. Hosted by two staff members at Wesleyan School, an independent K-12 school in the metro Atlanta area, the goal of this podcast is to provide practical things to consider when raising school-aged children. Guests will typically be one faculty member from Wesleyan paired with another expert on the topic we are discussing. Our hope is that anyone who loves school-aged children can use these resources, regardless of where you live or where your children attend school.

Whether your kids are toddlers or teens, this episode offers practical tips, encouragement, and real-life examples to help you make prayer a natural and joyful part of your family’s daily rhythm.Our guests are Dr. Don Whitney - pastor, seminary professor, and author of books like Praying the Bible; and Greg Lisson, director of Christian life at Wesleyan School. Whether you have toddlers, kindergarteners, teenagers, adult children, or are well into grandparenthood, this episode offers a fresh look at how we can engage with God in a new way.
