Family Rhythms That Matter: Biblical Margin in a Culture of Hustle
“The enemy of your child’s spiritual formation might not be rebellion. It might be distraction.”
In today’s episode of the Legacy Parenting Podcast, Lori Lane unpacks the importance of building family margin in a culture that glorifies busyness. Many parents feel like their calendars are louder than their calling, always rushing but rarely resting, always together but not truly connected. This conversation is not about productivity hacks or minimalism; it’s about creating holy space for what matters most: presence, discipleship, and meaningful connection at home.
Grounded in Scripture and the four biblical principles of Legacy Parenting — the Supremacy of Scripture, the God-ordained design of family, the priority of the heart, and the Imago Dei, Lori shares both spiritual insight and practical steps to help families reclaim rest, reflection, and renewal in daily life.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Busyness is not neutral. It shapes your child’s worldview and disciples their heart.
God designed rest as a rhythm of renewal, not as optional downtime.
Family margin honors your child’s identity as an image-bearer, not a productivity project.
Practical ways to build margin with toddlers, elementary kids, teens, and young adults.
How to evaluate your family calendar through a biblical lens instead of cultural pressure.
