Fierce Parenting: Recent Episodes
Ryan and Selena Frederick
New episodes every Wednesday! Join Ryan and Selena Frederick as they discuss all things parenting with light-hearted humor, Gospel-centered teaching, and raw transparency. Let's journey together and see what God does in our generation and the one to come!
Today’s episode of Fierce Parenting delivers powerful, practical encouragement for busy parents: real connection with your kids doesn’t need grand gestures. Turn everyday errands into memory-making moments and step into whatever your child already loves—comics, hunting, puzzles, or politics—because you love them. Simple, authentic time builds trust and opens hearts for deeper conversations. Start small, pray to see the opportunities, and remember: a shared soda on a back road can mean more than a big vacation. Heartfelt, doable wisdom for every parent.

We’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new children’s book series! Each story is built on the unshakable truths of God’s Word, designed to plant seeds of faith in the hearts of little ones. The world is full of confusion, but apart from God there is no truth. So how do we help our children grasp the big truths of God in ways their young hearts can understand? Join us as we share the heart behind each title and talk about the importance of teaching biblical truth to the next generation.

We hope to encourage parents to disciple their kids well, who go on to disciple their kids well, and so on and so forth for the glory of God.

It's undeniable, porn is ubiquitous and its effects saturate our culture. As parents, it's imperative that we're on the offensive when it comes to this issue. But, how? How can we begin having fruitful conversations around pornography? At what age is necessary and appropriate? What do we do if our child is already struggling with pornography addiction? We discussed these questions and more with our VERY special guest, Dr. Denny Frederick. Aside from being Ryan's favorite dad (only dad, really), he's been a counselor for over 30 years and helped thousands of patients in some of the darkest moments of their lives. He's also written a book called Conquering Pornography (available on Amazon.com) and helped countless parents and individuals navigate the mine-infested waters of modern-day sexuality and sexual addiction. We pray our conversation with Dr. Frederick blesses you.

It's the talk most parents dread: the sex talk. But should we dread it? Or, is there another way to view, anticipate, plan for, and approach the subject of sex with our children? In this episode, we talk through ways we can approach the topic of sex biblically, courageously, and truthfully with our children. This is the first of a series we're doing on human sexuality and how we can begin honest, helpful conversations with our children in this tricky area.

Kids will be kids... as the saying goes. But what does that phrase mean biblically? In this episode we look at childlikeness through a biblical lens with the hope of helping us discern what it means to let our kids be kids in the healthiest sense of the term. We talked through some of the common mistakes pitfalls in giving our kids too much autonomy vs. too much structure. We hope this episode sparks some new thoughts and conversations in your life as we all learn what it means to parent our children to the glory of God.

What can be said about the special scope of authority held by parents? How does the Bible instruct us? Today we discussed just that and looked at various ways parental authority can be chipped away by ourselves (unwittingly as well as intentionally) and society. It was a very lively conversation, thanks for listening! We hope it blesses you.

What a relief it is to know that God uses imperfect parents to his perfect ends. In this week's episode of the Fierce Parenting podcast, we talked with Dave and Ann Wilson, who are friends, authors, radio hosts, and faithful ministers of Christ. We laughed a lot... and even cried a little as they encouraged us and remind our listeners that our God is perfect, and it's in his perfect grace that we find the hope and help we need to love our children well.

This is the first of the three core tenets that drive us as parents and Fierce Parenting as a ministry. Children are a blessing from God himself. We must resist attitudes that consider children to be burdens, nuisances, or “in the way”. Children are a blessing because God says they’re a blessing.
