Raising Faith-Filled Kids is Harder Than Ever
Over 1 million kids walk away from the church every year
There are 168 hours in a week. At best, the church only gets 1–2 of them.
Parents get 936 weeks from birth to high school graduation to influence, guide, and shape their lives while under their roof.
The biggest discipleship gap in your church isn’t your youth — it’s their parents.

Why Our Mentorship Experience Works
It’s Biblical
Mentoring is God’s design for multiplying impact and discipling others—from Paul’s relationship with Timothy to the example in Titus 2—reminding us that true life change happens through real relationships
It's Relational
Unlike a class or one-time event, mentoring gives families what they actually need: real-life guidance, encouragement, and accountability that creates lasting change.
It Multiplies Impact
When you mentor parents, you're not just helping one family—you're equipping them to lead at home all week long and shape generations to come.
Meet Rodney &
Michelle Gage
For over 30 years, Rodney and Michelle Gage have dedicated their lives to helping families build thriving, faith-filled homes.
As pastors, authors, and mentors, they’ve walked alongside thousands of parents, pastors, and churches to bridge the gap between faith and home life.
They understand the challenges of leadership, ministry growth, and family life — because they’ve lived it.
Now, through The Winning Family, they’re partnering with churches to disciple parents and strengthen families across the nation — with a bold mission to mentor 100,000 parents by 2036.
