Between Sundays
Between Sundays is a weekly podcast for parents who want to lead their kids in faith beyond the walls of church. Hosted by our Hope Kids team, each episode offers practical encouragement, honest conversations, and simple ways to help you disciple your children in everyday moments.
New episodes drop every Wednesday, giving you real-life tools and confidence to have meaningful God conversations at home — because faith is caught before it’s taught, between Sundays.
