So the Kids Are Grown… Now What? (with Tara L Banks)

How do you feel wildly proud and completely heartbroken at the same time? Worship pastor and author Tara Banks knows that tension well. Her youngest is a college sophomore, her oldest is married, and her house is ticking to a brand-new rhythm. Demetria, who dropped her own daughter at college just a week before recording, sits down with Tara for an honest, hopeful conversation about the launch.
In this episode:
• Why the empty nest feels like managing heartbreak and celebration at once
• The surprise gift of rediscovering your marriage (and laughing at yourselves)
• Shifting from parenting with authority to parenting with influence
• What it means to parent "from the front porch" instead of the sidelines
• Inviting God into an empty bedroom, a call from the airport, or the laundry pile
Whether your kids are in diapers or dorm rooms, Tara's best advice fits every season: be fully present in the one you're in.
Tara's e-book, The Launch, began as six days of real-time journaling before her son left for college. It's a short read, made for the car ride home from drop-off.
