    A Life Changing Podcast
    The only podcast I listen to regularly and also reference all the time to friends, family and in Bible study groups. Without the tools & wisdom Intentional has given me I wouldn’t be able to break generational curses and truly enjoy my children the way I do. It’s life changing for us all! I know it will affect generations after me. Their podcast and resources are such an invaluable gift.

    So thankful for this podcast. Elizabeth and her parents carry so much wisdom! Time and time again I am amazed by their willingness to show their humanity and vulnerability. When someone brings something up that may highlight a weakness, instead of acting defensive or having to explain themselves they take it with ease. Their relaxed confidence of who they are in the Lord is refreshing. So much to learn from.

    The best!
    These guys are just the best so much wisdom all around with these four humans. And they don’t pretend to be perfect but are walking a life trying their best to be more like Jesus everyday! Thank you guys ❤️

    Real talk
    Always real talk about parenthood and marriage and how we can be more connected and in tune with how Christ wants us to lead and love our families.

    How are my podcast a Bible god?
    Even if you have a podcast, going over to listen, I’m not sure the way when you get to casting the pod if the pod goes inside the cast or if the cast goes inside the pod? How many pods (or casts?) are in total amounts? Also, how does Al feel about this? I see people like to be In Tents, but if you are In Tents on Al then I think Al might not like it all the time. Maybe change the name to In Tents on people with their consent. The voices are nice but the name is confusing.

    Love this podcast
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few years and I find it incredibly helpful and practical. I love the inter generational aspect and wisdom from Phil and Diane. I so appreciate the ministry. My only complaint is that often times Brook seems to talk over everyone,in his excitement he cuts people off, and it gets a little hard to listen to. I wish he would interject less and listen more.

    A GIFT
    I have found so much encouragement listening to this show. As a mother of a special needs little boy I have been able to grieve better, draw closer to God, and find my footing as I parent and navigate the unknowns of our situation. This podcast helps me in so many ways in my mothering as well as how I approach my relationship with my husband. It’s truly been a gift for me. Thank you.
  • michaelatinnes
    They have taught me so much
    I don’t have words for the way they have impacted my parenting and discipled me through their podcast. I will be forever grateful.

    Intentional, Wise, Scriptural
    I love this podcast!! They share Jesus-centered wisdom for families who desire intentional connection! In today’s world, it is often tough to find Biblical and practical truth for parenting and marriage in such a real way. To learn tools for intentional living has been such a gift and a beautiful resource! Thank you for doing this!!

    Real, Truthful, Helpful, Practical.
    As a family pastor I’ve found the intentional parenting podcast super helpful! Now my wife and I have now begun our journey of foster care as this part month and it’s all getting really real now. Intentional parenting resources are a lifeline keeping my perspective on the long (and honestly very difficult) road of being a disciple and raising disciples. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🙌🏽
  • Carrielupton
    Weekly must listen!
    This show encourages, edifies, trains, guides and consistently points to Jesus for just about everything you come across in parenting. They unashamedly talk about hard things, and are brutally honest about their experiences. I love the multi-generational discussions. Each week’s podcast is full of wisdom, encouragement and scripture. I’m always eager for the next week and can’t wait to experience intentional motherhood retreat for the first time this year. As a mom of 5 kids age 9 and under and only being 31, not growing up in a truly Christian home, these 4 have helped shaped and grow me into more of the mother God created me to be.

    A Must Listen
    The best podcast out there! I appreciate the variety of topics covered throughout the episodes and for the vulnerability the crew has to allow us to learn from them. So. Much. Wisdom (I wish I could sit down with Diane and ask her pages of questions!). I’m constantly sharing the latest podcast episodes with my husband, friends and family. So great!
  • Adweaver

    I am constantly learning from, encouraged by and recommending this podcast! It’s the only parenting one I consistently listen to and am thankful for the work they put in to help us along this journey.
  • Ckelseya
    Look forward to every episode
    I genuinely love this podcast more than any other Christian parenting podcast I’ve ever come across—and this is years in the making for me. Now that I’m a single mom to my 10 month old son I look forward to each new episode and learning all the wisdom these folks share in intentionally raising your children in the ways of Christ — and that’s my main goal! Love these people.
  • R Tartre

    Love this podcast!
    I never miss an episode! Each one so rich and full of wisdom. This podcast and their ministry has been a huge help in our parenting journey. Can’t recommend it enough.

    “Parenting Through Emotions” Episode
    So appreciate this podcast, the content and the transparent banter! Thank you Mosser and Comers for your continued ministry in this way. The “Parenting Through Emotions” episode is so very timely right now as we’re tackling intelligible emotions for the first time (meaning their developmentally old enough to begin to separate their emotions from themselves). Not only is this super helpful to frame and model how to handle that - but I have an adult sister with special needs who’s encountering big emotional challenges and this episode helped give me more language and intentionality to go slow with her and help her identify her feelings. Thanks for all you do, and keep the content coming!!! So prayerfully thankful. 💕

    Can’t recommend enough!
    I can’t love this podcast enough! It brings me so much joy to listen to it. I can hear and feel the love in their voices. I love hearing how God moved in their lives as parents. You feel like they are really pouring into you specially and it’s such helpful practical advice. We were created to be in community and what a beautiful community this is. I tell everyone to listen every chance I get.
  • HollyElizabethR
    Highly Recommend!
    I’m so thankful a friend recommended this podcast — and now I recommend to friends as well! I love the humility and vulnerability of both couples, Biblical wisdom shared, and super practical parenting advice. So helpful as I’m in the season of raising young children and trying to disciple them well. I also appreciate the wide variety of topics. Very well done - thank-you!!

    Intentional Parents Podcast
    This is my absolute favorite podcast. I feel like Brook, Elizabeth, Diane and Phil are like family to me now! I tell friends about it all the time, whether they are parents or not. It’s so full of wisdom for every season. The conversations are always engaging, challenging and most importantly, pointing the listener to Jesus. Plus, all of their voices are fun to listen to 😊 Thank you so much, Comer’s and Mosser’s! Please keep it coming!! Also, I would love to hear an episode on each of your favorite books!

    Best Podcast for Families
    I absolutely love the multi-generational aspect of this podcast. You get the wisdom of Diane & Phil mixed with the relevancy of Elizabeth & Brooke’s current parenting ‘struggles.’ It’s also so inspiring to listen to a Jesus functioning family interact together which for some of us, is something we have never heard before. This podcast has helped model what is means to be a Jesus following family. So grateful for all the ways this podcast has changed my life.
  • LauraWeagle3
    So much wisdom and truth!
    I’ve been listening to Intentional for about 6 months now, and every week I’m blown away at the truth and wisdom that comes from this show. I’ve learned so much from the examples Brook and Elizabeth share of how they parent, and Phil and Diane never cease to bring the word and truth to every situation in a very real way. Intentional has offered me encouragement and also the challenge to live and lead my kids like Jesus. Thank you all for living out this ministry and allowing the Holy Spirit to work through you to bless so many families!
  • Emotionally Healthy Legacy
    What a wonderful resource for Christian parents
    Life-giving Podcast that covers such needed topics for Christian parents to raise up kids that follow and love Jesus and also have a good relationship with their parents. Thank you for such a wonderful resource. Elizabeth .

    Best Parenting Podcast
    I look forward to every new episode! I started out by binging every episode I could from oldest to newest, and now the week long wait for a new one feels so long. I love that the perspectives in conversation come from multiple generations - wisdom from those who are done parenting and from those who are currently parenting. Godly, Biblical perspectives on how to raise our children up and keep ourselves in check. Absolutely one of my favorite podcasts to listen to.
  • wakeupLCC
    Teaching Gods very best for parenting!
    Intentional is such a gift. I have learned so much from this incredible ministry, they speak from scripture, wisdom & real experience. The parenting study is spot on. I’ve been challenged & so encouraged in this wild parenting marathon. Keep up the amazing work, you are SO appreciated.
  • Tessa DJ
    A life-giving listen each week!
    I love the authentic and honest conversations that happen each week, and how faithful they are to bring everything back to the Word of God. So encouraging as a young parent!
  • Erin Wiebold
    Authentic, honest, + encouraging
    Very Authentic, honest/ raw + biblical. I’ve listened to these podcasts over and over bc they are just so rich in truth. Yet I feel like the shame I carry in my parenting falls away when I listen bc I realize what I’m struggling through is very normal. Thanks Inentional you have made a big difference in my life!
  • ER.Robertson
    Refreshing!

  • Smithcrew2

    Best parenting podcast
    This is my go to parenting podcast. So relatable, so wise, so encouraging, so helpful. Thanks for all you do!
  • Haiti_girl
    Couldn’t make it past introductions
    I was recommended this by another mom and really looking forward to hearing it. However I couldn’t even make it through the first episode. When you have a host making light of dating someone right out of high school while he is a college graduate and leader in the church, that’s not okay. At all. Even with the clarifications by the other hosts it is incredibly uncomfortable to hear about someone just waiting for someone to be in adult so that “the rules” can allow a man to date a barely 18 year old. I can’t get to the parenting advice, though it made be helpful and based in biblical truth, because of how this was handled.
  • Jgreek414
    Biblical parenting in light of modern research
    So much wisdom and practical parenting tips. Love that their ideas are backed both by up to date research and evidence - but mostly, they abide by Biblical truths. This podcast truly has been life changing for me.
  • BreLucasRoberts
    Love Diane’s Wisdom!
    This podcast, your book, and now your weekly text messages, have become foundational as I parent! I have gone back and read many of Diane‘s old blog posts. As well as sought out specific podcasts to download. Grateful that you have followed the Lord’s leading in providing such great content and wisdom. Diane is my absolute favorite! She gives sound wisdom, tempered with gentleness, strength, and firm guidance. Everything I need as a mom of Young kids.

    The Next Generation
    I so enjoy these podcasts and the wise words from the Comer family. They touch home with the stages of life we are in from grand parenting to raising little ones to follow Jesus! I really love sharing the episodes with family and friends (the current one with Jon Tyson is a must). Thank you all for your hard work and I know this weekend at the Motherhood Retreat will bless hundreds!!
  • Cayla Walker
    My favorite podcast!
    I love this podcast so much!! I listen to it nearly every day since discovering it after the birth of my 3rd baby, 2 months ago. It is so rich. I’m so thankful for the inter generational input on Jesus centered parenting. I am so thankful for the humility, kindness and love that is just SO evident. I really appreciate the purity as well. I love and admire many Christian leaders, speakers and authors, but have rarely found a source that is so pure in their devotion to Jesus. Love for Him is the motivation, the center of all things and the ultimate prize. It is so clear and so inspiring. I share this podcast with all my friends, and can’t wait to keep listening and learning. Thank you!
  • MetoGa

    Hands down the best Christian parenting podcast!!
    I can not say enough good things about this podcast! My husband and I both listen to it and absolutely love everything they have to say! They are all so wise and provide biblical advice while also giving examples of practical application. You guys have forever changed the way we will parent and I’m forever grateful for that. Thank you so much for using your time to bless us with your wisdom and perspective. My husband and I also attended their conference, read their book and have watched the parenting video series and cannot recommend their material enough! God is working through you guys to touch so many parents!
