Doesn’t it sometimes feel like kids speak a different language?

Just when you thought you were caught up on the trends and slang, they come home from school to spill more tea, show you the dankest TikToks, and let you know you’re sus. (That was as painful to write as it was to read).


Culture Translator is a weekly email that boils down the latest music and media trends impacting your kid’s world so you can relate to, engage with, and ultimately guide them to Jesus.

It’s a five-minute read, and it’s totally free. Subscribe here to be equipped to cultivate lifelong faith.
