In this episode of Parenting City Kids, Millie and Paul sit down with Andrew Grills, Lead Pastor at City on a Hill Geelong and Army Veteran. Andrew shares his incredible journey from graduating the Australian Defence Force Academy with the prestigious Sword of Honour to planting a church and raising five kids alongside his wife, Dana.
With refreshing vulnerability, Andrew unpacks how his military mindset tested his early days of fatherhood, and how he had to learn the profound difference between behavior modification and grace. We discuss the ethics of "officers eat last" at the dinner table, the bravery of asking your kids for a performance review, and how to protect city kids from cultural threats without raising them in a bunker of fear.
Plus, we finally clear the air: is he actually related to Bear Grylls?
Whether you are a brand-new parent in the thick of sleepless nights or navigating the complex teenage years, this episode is a powerful reminder that while the days are long, the years are incredibly short.
