How do you build a faith foundation at home in 2026? What does discipleship look like beyond Sunday services? How can parents guard their children’s minds in a culture that is no longer neutral? What rhythms of prayer, worship, and truth can anchor families when the world is shifting fast?

In this episode of Truth Without Tribalism, Jermaine Pearson launches the four-part January series Faith at Home. He shares his personal story of learning to disciple his children from birth, including traditions like whispering the Shema over his newborns and creating intentional rhythms of prayer and worship in everyday life.
