Building a great father-son relationship doesn't happen by accident. In this inspiring episode of Family Vision, Dr. Rob Rienow shares a powerful message from Visionary Family's recent Father-Son Connect event. With honesty, humor, and biblical clarity, Rob calls dads to pursue deeper heart connection and spiritual influence with their sons—especially during the critical teenage years.

Drawing from Proverbs, Malachi, and his own parenting journey, Rob unpacks how the enemy targets father-son relationships and how fathers can resist that attack by staying connected through trust, humility, and ongoing conversations. You'll also hear several practical questions used at the event—tools you can use immediately to open the door for meaningful conversations between fathers and sons.

Why the teen years are the "death zone" for many father-son relationships
How to build heart connection even as your son grows more independent
What Scripture says about passing on wisdom from father to son
How to talk with your son about hard topics—and how not to
