Finding Balance Between Calling and Family

In this episode of How Do You Dad?, Joe Barlow sits down with Rick McKinley for an honest conversation about fatherhood, ministry, mistakes, and grace.

Rick shares what he wishes he had done differently, from being away too much for ministry to learning how to truly listen to his children. They talk about conflict, saying “I’m sorry,” giving your kids a voice, and the importance of letting your children know—no matter what—that they are loved.

At the heart of it all is a simple challenge for every dad: preach the gospel to yourself first, and make sure your kids know you love them.
