Our Course Offerings
Man of the Household
4 week guided session offered periodically
self-paced option always available
As natural as it is, being man of the household does not come naturally, especially today. We need to be intentional and take specific steps to become the man we want to be. The course goal is this: to be the man of my household, a true husband and father, taking first responsibility for crafting the good life in my home, and so fulfilling what my nature calls me to, my heart longs for, and my loved ones need and deserve.
Woman of the Household
4 week guided session offered periodically
self-paced option always available
Men and women alike have missed the gift of womanhood. This course uncovers the truth of the nature of woman, her genius and her profound connection to that most beautiful of realities: the household. By exploring woman as wife, mother, and the heart of the home, we can move past the stereotypes and the misperceptions to discover the reality of woman, and how she can thrive today.
Concepts Made Clear
Self-paced
You face tough questions daily: How do I prioritize relationships? How do I balance work and home life? Is it time to switch careers? The answer won’t come from the traditional world of how-to, at least not the full answer. Using time well starts with using our mind well, in discovering time-tested truths about what human flourishing means. This course will help you to practice clear thinking, empowering you to face the questions in your life with greater confidence.
Dinner at Home
self-paced
You eat every day, but what do your mealtimes look like? For working parents, it’s increasingly easy to eat lunch while scrolling the phone, and to eat takeout for dinner after working late. Eating is the one of the most overlooked but best keys for changing our lives and the lives of those we love. If we choose to to be reliably and intentionally present to our spouse and children at dinner, how will that impact our relationship with them today, and shape our children’s identity for the future? This course is designed to guide families, especially fathers, in crafting more meaningful mealtimes in the home, starting today.
Becoming a Read-Aloud Leader
self-paced
Dominant types of entertainment today are technology-based and tend to be shallow. While they can have a place, many of us are spending too much time on them. We feel the lack of richness in our lives.
What can we do that’s different? Reading aloud allows for a different way of experiencing one another and enjoying life together. Regain the lost art of reading aloud with family or friends.
Learning Together
Guided Sessions
While LifeCraft members can take courses on their own schedule at any time, we also offer guided versions of the Man of the Household and Woman of the Household courses. These guided versions include weekly live Zoom sessions with John for Q&A and supplementary material. The last guided sessions took place March / April 2022. We’ll be announcing dates for the next session soon!
