What if your home life felt lighter, your marriage steadier, and your faith more alive—not by doing more, but by aligning your time with God’s? Stephen Crews joins us to trace a humble, hopeful path from the family dinner table to covenant alignment, sharing how Sabbath and the biblical feasts became the backbone of his spiritual growth, marriage, and parenting. His story moves from a loving childhood and long hours on the basketball court to an unexpected conversion and a marriage defined by extreme ownership, patient leadership, and simple, steady practices that invite the presence of God.
We dig into why attention shapes identity—beholding and becoming—and how small decisions compound into a life of peace. Stephen explains how honoring the Lord’s calendar isn’t about legalism; it’s about relationship and rhythm. He describes eight years of observing the feasts and the surprising ways God has met him, including a last-hour answer at Passover that still anchors his confidence. We talk about leading at home by example, learning prayer from a spouse, and why a weekly Sabbath can quiet the noise, strengthen unity, and make room for genuine rest. If the times feel darker, this conversation offers a bright, practical map: realignment over hustle, presence over performance, and a household faith that actually works.
