As Christmas break stretches on and a new year approaches, many parents feel worn down frustrated by screens, messes, and constant resistance. If that’s you, you’re not failing… and you’re not alone.
In this New Year’s episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor offers hope and clarity for parents who want more than behavior management. This conversation is about formation how daily practices, expectations, and leadership shape your child’s character and the culture of your home.
The core truth of this episode is simple and powerful:
Kids can do hard things but they can’t do them alone.
When parents are willing to do hard things first, everything begins to change.
In this episode, Angie shares:
- Why most parenting struggles are formation problems, not discipline problems
- How unchallenged behaviors slowly become normalized in your home
- Why avoiding hard things now makes parenting harder later
- How perseverance, discipline, and even discomfort produce maturity—biblically and practically
- Why kids’ understanding of authority and God is deeply shaped by their parents
A Simple Goal for 2026:
Don’t overhaul everything. Start small.
Choose one goal: We are going to learn to do hard things.
Begin with yourself your spiritual health, physical health, and willingness to take responsibility. Over time, hard things become habits you love, and those habits transform your family culture.
When parents lead with courage and consistency, kids learn they can do hard things with support, purpose, and faith.

In this week’s Thanksgiving episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor sits down with Hilary Paulsen, College & Career Readiness Coach at Santiam Christian School. Hilary brings a refreshing, deeply gospel-centered perspective on preparing kids for their futures one that goes far beyond checklists, deadlines, and college applications.
Instead of focusing on “What are you going to do?” Hilary helps parents ask better questions:

- How to shift the conversation from what kids will do to who they are becoming
- Why exposure, experimentation, and even failure are essential

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor unpacks the hidden forces shaping today’s children and equips parents with the clarity and confidence they need to lead with purpose.
For nearly 400 years, Western culture was built on a Protestant worldview where work had meaning, family was sacred, discipline was discipleship, and children were seen as image-bearers with purpose. But between the 1800s and early 1900s, new thinkers fundamentally shifted how society viewed identity, childhood, morality, and the family.
Angie breaks down how three influential voices Freud, Skinner, and Marx reshaped modern education, psychology, and culture, and why parents today feel like they’re swimming upstream. She explains:
- Freud: “Your desires define you.”
- Skinner: “You’re just a product of conditioning.”
- Marx: “Society not the family should shape the child.”
These worldviews still dominate schools, media, and youth culture. But the good news? Parents are still the #1 influence in a child’s life. And with understanding comes the power to reclaim your child’s formation.

As a mom, educator, and follower of Christ, I know how overwhelming it can feel to raise kids in a culture that promotes comfort over courage and entitlement over service. In this episode of The Way of Valor, I share part two of a deep and practical series on raising a generation of culture-shifting kids. We talk candidly about the influence of faith, discomfort, and global perspective in shaping young people into resilient leaders who know who they are—and whose they are.
I unpack real-world parenting challenges—how to navigate your child's anxiety without enabling it, how to shift from creating comfort to building strength, and why mission-based living transforms not only your child’s mindset but your family’s legacy. With over 30 years in education and as the founder of Valor Global Foundation, I’ve seen firsthand how gospel-rooted parenting changes lives—not just at home but around the world.
This episode is for parents, mentors, and anyone who believes the next generation can do more than survive—they can thrive with purpose. If you've ever questioned whether your voice, your parenting, or your mission matters, this conversation will remind you: God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or unsure how to guide your children through today’s gender identity confusion, you are not alone — and you are not without tools. In this deeply honest episode of The Way of Valor, I speak directly to Christian parents about the urgent need to engage, speak truth, and love our kids well through a cultural moment that is anything but neutral.
This episode lays a foundation rooted in Biblical truth, scientific facts, and practical compassion. I cover the research around gender dysphoria, the rapid increase in youth transitioning, and how cultural institutions — including media and schools — are shaping your children’s beliefs, often without your knowledge. I also tackle one of the biggest lies: that silence is safer than speaking up. Spoiler alert: It’s not.
But this isn’t just about warning — it’s about hope. As believers, we have access to eternal truths that free, heal, and restore. I’m here to equip you with clarity, resources, and confidence. You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need the courage to have the conversation. Tune in, take notes, and let’s prepare to lead our families in both truth and love.

Today, I’m opening up about a deeply personal journey. In this season of life, I’ve found myself in the valley—a place of struggle, hard decisions, and deep reflection. While I’d love to only share the highlights, the truth is God has been refining me in the fire, teaching me powerful lessons through obedience and surrender.
This episode dives into what it looks like to give God your “fish and loaves” and trust Him with the miraculous outcomes. I’ll reflect on past experiences, like when He called me to start Valor in South Korea, even when I thought I had no capacity left. The truth is, God doesn’t ask us to have it all figured out—He simply asks us to show up in faith and let Him do the rest.
We’ll also explore the beauty of pain as a refining tool. No matter how difficult the valley feels, there’s purpose in the process. I’ll share practical wisdom, biblical insights, and personal stories to encourage you to lean into God’s plan and trust Him to turn your trials into testimonies. Let’s embrace faithfulness together, even in the hard seasons.
