About this listen
When a relationship with your child starts to feel distant, the pain can be overwhelming and the questions endless. Where did things go wrong? How do you reach out without pushing them further away? And is there hope for healing?
In this episode of the Upstream Podcast, Joy sits down with Glenn Leutchens from Focus on the Family to talk honestly about navigating strained or distant relationships with your child. Together, they explore what parents can do when communication breaks down, how to respond with grace instead of fear, and why patience, humility, and prayer matter more than having all the right answers.
Whether your child has emotionally pulled away, set firm boundaries, or completely cut off communication, this conversation offers encouragement, biblical wisdom, and practical next steps for parents who are longing for restoration but don’t know where to begin.
If you’re carrying the weight of a broken or distant relationship with your child, this episode reminds you that you’re not alone—and that hope is still possible.
