Being a pastor’s kid can be anything but simple. My daughters can tell you that first hand. But I’m so proud of how they’ve navigated it over the years. That’s why I’m excited to have my daughters Sidney and Lindsey on this week’s episode.
You’ll get to hear them share about the good, the bad, and the ugly that comes with having parents in ministry and how it impacts who they are today. Plus, you get to hear the girls ask me some of their burning questions.
I had a great time doing this episode with them, and I hope you have just as much fun listening. Special thanks to Leadr for sponsoring this episode and to each and every single one our listeners. We appreciate you!

Brilliant! Tennis Ball conversations.
Being in the Word at least 4 times a week- so true! I’ve been blessed to take women in our community group through daily devotionals for more than a year now and I’m so thankful to witness the amount of personal and spiritual growth in each of them. His Word is truly the Bread of Life. Thanks Lindsey and Sidney for making this a great 200th episode! Thanks Rusty for always keeping it real. Hugs to you all!
Wow – loved this podcast with you and your girls. They are so articulate and open. It helped me and I’m not even a “PK” ☺️💕
This was so good and authentic, thank you very much for doing this. My 12 and 13 year old son and daughter didn’t want the conversation to end. Super cool!
