In this episode of The Briefcase and the Barn, Kyle and Gary tackle a range of serious and humorous topics, including reflections on Canadian federal politics, auction fraud, parenting struggles, and spiritual leadership in the home. They critique political leaders and discuss the erosion of trust in media, referencing Mark Carney, Pierre Poilievre, and government overreach.
Kyle shares an inside look at the chaos and clean-up from their recent auction—including fraud, payment issues, and shady sellers. They also revisit Gentle and Lowly, exploring how to teach children the irresistible love of Christ not through behavior correction, but heart transformation. The episode closes with a practical Q&A covering phones for kids, screen time, and how to lead family devotions—even when it feels awkward or ineffective.
