4244
Dr. Matt enjoys life with his wife, Dr. Amadea Angove, and their seven children. Dr. Amadea is a licensed naturopathic physician, acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist. Dr. Matt also enjoys inspiring people to overcome poor habits so that they reach their full potential. He loves helping people overcome food addiction and sedentary living. Taking control of food and seeing someone enjoy physical activity gives him the biggest smile. Dr. Matt Angove, ND received his medical training at Bastyr University - the premier medical school for natural health training and one of only four fully accredited naturopathic doctorate schools. He did his undergraduate studies at Oral Robert’s University, where he received a Bachelor of Science in Health & Exercise Science with pre-medicine emphasis. It is amazing how routine and habit substitution can create health victory in ways people have never experienced before. This victory pours over into professional and social life, compounding itself and creating endless life opportunity. That is why Dr. Matt encourages people to make small, incremental changes to their life routine so that they can enjoy the wave of momentum that comes with consistent victories. The compounding of consistent victories in our life routine is what he calls health accumulation. |

202: Baby #5 Gender Reveal // Pregnancy And Postpartum Q&A
3052
We didn’t find out the gender for our first three babies until they were born. Our 4th was the first one we found out during an ultrasound, which was anticlimactic and lame, to be honest. We weren’t sure what we wanted to do with this pregnancy, so we had them put the gender in an envelope. - |

201: Equipping Our Kids To Defend Their Faith And Engage With Deconstructionism with Alisa Childers
3727
Alisa Childers is an American singer and songwriter. She’s best known right now for being an Apologist. Prior to becoming known as an Apologist, she was known for being a singer in the all-female Christian band ZOEgirl. She experienced a period of profound doubt about her faith in her mid-thirties. She felt uncertainty and didn’t know where to find answers to her questions, or if answers existed at all. She began to investigate her faith intellectually by taking seminary classes and reading everything she could get her hands on. This began her journey from unreasoned doubt into a vibrant, rational, and informed faith. |

199: What Our Parents Taught Us About Sex and What We're Teaching Our Kids
3971
Today we are talking about how we plan to talk to our children about sex and how we’ve already talked to them about it. This is going to include a brief history of how our parents talked to us about it. We feel we have so much to learn about this and don’t want to run away from the scariness or daunting aspect of this conversation. We want to lean into it and embrace the role that we have in our children’s life especially in this area. Hopefully we can encourage you to do the same with your children. |

195: Things Parents Of Multiple Children Overlook
3496
Today we’re talking about some of the biggest pitfalls around big families or families in general, as well as some warning flags that the health of your family may not really be that healthy in the long term. It may show up later if we are not in tune to some of these little stages of development or some pitfalls that we can fall into as parents or overlook when it comes to raising our children. If we see themes that are consistently showing up in families where the children aren’t talking to or resenting their parents as adults, we start to question what can we do when it comes to parenting our own children that sets us up for having a rich, encouraging relationship for life and our children not feeling like we messed them up. These are just some things that have stuck out to us. |

193: First Trimester Baby #5 Q&A // Pregnancy After Miscarriage
3082
Today we are talking about how Katie’s pregnancy has been so far with baby #5 and answering questions that you have asked us! This pregnancy has felt different than our other ones since we had a miscarriage this past summer. It is remarkable how that really changed our perspective in regards to the preciousness of life. We have always loved our children, but we were so much more grateful for them when we saw the reality that nothing is guaranteed. Our overall childrearing experience has been so positive in every aspect that when we lost that baby this summer, it really made us have to trust God’s sovereignty in a challenging way. It gave us so much more admiration and respect for people who have been through real loss and challenging things in their life and in the midst of it, they trust the Lord in His goodness and sovereignty. |

191: Masculine Role Models: Should Christians Listen To Joe Rogan?
3793
Today we are talking about Christian masculinity, Godly masculinity and Godly manhood - what it should and should not look like. Is there a template we can model our lives after as men or is it vague? Is it subjective? Is it to each his own? It wasn’t until I started having sons that I really started caring about Christian masculinity and what that looked like. As time has gone on and I’ve wanted to put my finger on what leading my sons in a Godly way should look like, it’s become more and more difficult to find role models or teaching that are both Biblically sound and practical. We need to realize what God has for men. What is the Godly standard? I have been going to the Proverbs recently and it has been so enlightening as to what God wants men to be. It was so empowering to see God’s wisdom on display here in such practical way. All of the Proverbs are so good in regards to being a godly, masculine man, good husband, good church member, and a good father. Men of God love instruction. They love being taught. They love being given wisdom. They love learning. They love finding knowledge and seeking it as hidden treasures. Going to the Proverbs and seeing God’s wisdom is so practical and applicable. This has been a huge blessing!

3145
Today, we look back on 2022 and also vision cast for 2023! It’s always fun to be able to look back on what God has done the past year and project where you hope His vision is for the new year. Elisha also shares his dream board from 2022! What exactly is a dream board?? It is when you sit down and analyze your thoughts, goals, and direction you want to be going in, in the new year. You then find photos to really support and remind you of those things throughout the year, print them out and attach them to a board and place it somewhere that you will see it often. “A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.” Proverbs 16:9 Things mentioned on podcast: Sign up now and join the waitlist for The Growth Initiative! - https://www.nowthatwereafamily.com/thegrowthinitiative "To Deserve Your Love" by Elisha Voetberg - https://youtu.be/2ZUlf2k21n4 Looking for more Now That We're A Family resources?

188: Hormones, Sinful Nature, and Vices We Are Trying to Overcome
3097
How do you determine if negative feelings are from hormone issues or a sinful nature? When it comes to feelings, feelings are a physiological response to something. It’s an emotion. It’s in our body. We can’t necessarily control where feelings come from (ie. hunger). It’s not a sin to just feel a feeling. It’s what we do with that feeling that makes it sinful or not. Hormone issues can be a root of a feeling that’s sinful or a feeling that we have to surrender to the Lord, move past and choose not to act on or wallow in. There is a definitive line that is hard to identify for us humans as to when it crosses over to sin. Clearly we are told in the Bible that Jesus was tempted as every man’s been tempted and yet He was without sin. That makes it very clear that being tempted is not sining. It’s obviously a sin when you act out in those things though. A defining characteristic of Christians is that we are not bondage to our bodies anymore in Christ. We’ve been set free from any captivity that our bodies had over us prior to Christ. Our old man is dead. We are new creations in Christ. We came to Christ in faith and are now no longer slaves to sin, but we are redeemed in Christ’s righteousness. We are learning and growing as Christians every day. The Bible tells us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior. Growth is a part of being a Christian. “A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.” - Proverbs 22:3 What’s one vice that you’re always praying to overcome? A scary thing a lot of Christians do is categorize various big sins like pornography, drunkenness and adultery and think that you’re good if you haven’t done those things. God’s standard is so much higher than these overt sins we like to categorize. How do you overcome your vice? If it’s a conviction thing then you need to bring it to the Lord and know that you’re free to walk away from it. There are many things that aren’t a sin unless you make it a sin. One things that has been helpful is being clear on what we actually want our life to look like and then being proactive and spending our time doing that instead. If you’re passionate and excited about that thing, then you won’t have the time to do those other things that were consuming your life and becoming a vice. In our Christian walk, we should be thinking about who we are turning towards, instead of what we are turning away from. It is very easy to wallow in the sin of what we did today and the sin of the past. We have to be daily turning towards Christ. The only freedom from any vice is going to be found in Jesus Christ, in what He’s accomplished and who He is! “Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” - Hebrews 12:2 - Looking for more Now That We're A Family resources?

187: Courting Vs Dating // What We Would Do Different
2616
What are the benefits of courting and how to talk to family members who think your child should be allowed to date? We had a 10 month courtship (our first time around) and then a typical dating relationship later. We would not necessarily recommend courting, or at least the way we did it. We don’t want the dating model for our children though either. It’s not to say that a lot of harm can be avoided, but we think it can be so uptight and intense. It can also lead to not developing a great friendship or ground level relationship before you dive into marriage. Getting alone to have one-on-one raw, meaty conversations is a healthy part to getting to know someone before deciding to spend the rest of your life with them. We think it’s more helpful for the guy and girl to explore a relationship together in terms of hanging out a couple times together, asking people who know them questions, asking each other questions, seeing if your personalities connect, seeing if you have fun together, and ultimately, seeing if you want to make this work in the infancy of the relationship. After you’ve done that and you think this person is worth fighting for, then bring them into the family and start putting them through the paces. I think when you put them through the paces before both people are even sure they want to pursue the relationship, it can just really muddle the emotion and be very stressful on everyone involved. If you want to be married to someone of integrity, someone who protects, cherishes and is faithful and loyal to you, you would want there to be this open line of exhortation and discernment from the parents as soon as possible. We think courtship can be a beautiful thing, if you realize as the parent that you are the counselor and your adult child needs to make their own decisions and come to you and you don’t try to control the situation. We want to raise our children in a way that they value our opinion and discernment and be able to trust them, trust their standards and desires for a relationship and marriage. To answer the second question, our parents would say, children don’t need to date. You date to get married. When our child is old enough, an adult and ready to get married, then that’s when they will date. When the time or person is right, then we would definitely encourage them to date. You also don’t need to answer to anyone how you parent your children. You answer to God. To sum it all up, we aren’t bitter at courting and don’t think dating is great. We are somewhere in the middle! :) - Looking for more Now That We're A Family resources?

186: Running Our Family Like A Business
3048
Families are high above businesses and other outside ministries, but we can learn so much from how we apply ourselves to business and hopefully get convicted and come back to our home and want to put the structure and intentionality into our home and family. However, we don’t want to cheapen what marriage or family is by comparing it to a business. Obviously the covenant of marriage is something God ordained. There is a spiritual and holy element to it that a business will never be able to recreate. We’re doing this from the perspective that family and marriage are in a league of its own when it comes to importance and significance for what God has said about it. Each family, as a culture, will tend to value what the parents value. We’re training our kids with what we do with our time. Companies that run for generations often have had a generational view in mind when they started and the kids were able to take and make it even better, which is the prayer for our family.

185: Things We've Changed Our Minds On: Birth-Control, Alcohol, Eschatology . . .
3210
When a listener asked us, "What is something you've changed your mind about?," it got us thinking that we've changed our mind on a handful of issues and some were pretty big. Changing your mind is a part of growing, especially if the Lord is leading you a different way. The Lord has changed our hearts on a couple things: alcohol, birth control, Christmas, justification and eschatology. We were challenged through the years to go to Scripture, listen to others opinions and determine what we believe, as well as what we think is best for our family.

180: Should Christians Celebrate Halloween?
2627
Against all odds we've made it through 4 years of doing the podcast without talking about Halloween. But we cracked. We caved. We succumbed. Succame? . . .The pressure got to us and we could not resist taking advantage of this seasonal opportunity to share our personal opinions and convictions on a polarizing holiday. Neither Katie or I grew up celebrating Halloween so we never needed to have a sit down conversation to go over the pros and cons and come to our own decision about Halloween. It was just never going to be a part of our home. But as our children have grown and become more curious about this autumn holiday, Katie and I have needed to crystallize then articulate our thoughts on the topic. We recon that if we can tell Leon, Lucy, Louis, and Lawrence our perspective on Halloween then we should be able to tell you guys on the podcast.

179: Setting Boundaries With In-laws And Family
3022
A book titled "How To Leave And Cleave" would certainly get my attention and the author, my money. Or the publisher would get the money . . .who pays the agent? Idk. All I know is that starting a life and a home together as a married couple seems to go a little deeper than bank accounts and tax benefits. No, we are not going to break down the mystery of how "two becoming one" works. But we are going to share our experience in both leaving families that have strong, distinct, and in some ways polarizing cultures and creating our own home and culture. We have the great fortune of coming from godly families with countless admirable traits. There is SO MUCH we want to emulate from our experiences growing up in big families. But more often than not, newly weds and young parents would prefer if their new family looked nothing like what they experienced growing up. In either situation, the call to "leave and cleave" and form our own home remains. And I am still waiting to be convinced otherwise that a unified home with a clear mission is more powerful than any organization or individual or the death star. The Bible Passage Katie was trying to remember: 1st Kings 12:8 "But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, and which stood before him" It would mean so much to us if you took the time to leave our podcast a rating or a review.

I am trying to think of more things I can put in quotations. I cannot think of any more at this time. Maybe I just "lack creativity."

The Gospel of Jesus Christ and my family. That's what I want people to see me get most excited about when they are talking to me. That is definitely what I saw in Eric Ludy when I interviewed him last week. And this left a strong impression on me. After writing 27 books, discipling thousands of young people at the school he founded, and going on speaking tours around the world, it was clear to me that what Eric was most passionate about was the gospel and his family. I feel like we were just starting to scratch the surface to the well of knowledge and helpful insight he has so be sure to go check out his podcast as well as his archive of sermons.

130: How To Communicate When You Don’t Feel Financial Secure As A Wife
2103
Vocation originally meant a person's calling from God upon their life. The new culturally embraced Webster's dictionary definition of vocation is "a strong feeling of suitability for a particular career or occupation." This distortion is commonplace amidst our culture as we run further and further away from what God would have for us and just embrace our feelings. We need to resist this and run to His word as the grounding for our life and family. Only then can we see the true calling upon our lives correctly as husbands, wives, and children. Join Katie & Kyla as they discuss their callings as wives in regards to finances and communication in the episode of the Now That We're A Family Podcast! - Top 5 Tuesday Join our weekly email list to keep up to date with the highlights of what is going on in our family life.
