Jeremy Puglisi returns for his seventh appearance on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast—and it’s a powerful one. What began as a pop-up camper and a couple of sleep-deprived twins has become a movement, a media company, and a meaningful legacy. In this episode, Jeremy and host Ginny Yurich reflect on what it really means to invest in your children—not with money, but with time, presence, and outdoor adventures. Jeremy shares the long-term fruit of raising kids immersed in nature, adventure, and unpredictability—and how those early camping trips laid the foundation for his boys’ confidence and competence today. They talk family road trips, leaving stable careers to follow a passion, the birth of Camp Griddlemore (a cooking show you’ll actually use), and the heart behind Jeremy’s latest book series for kids. This episode is an invitation to go all-in—not because it’s easy, but because it’s worth it. Camping isn’t just a weekend escape; it’s a parenting philosophy. And as Jeremy wisely says, “Investing is not always easy—but it’s very wise.” 📚 Shop Jeremy’s books: Where Should We Camp Next?, My First Book of Camping, and Let’s Go Camping: A Journal and Logbook for Kids 🍳 Watch Camp Griddlemore on the Blackstone YouTube Channel 📸 Follow Jeremy: @thervatlas 🌲 More resources: The RV Atlas Website Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I spent some time in the TMTA exhibit hall where I got to meet Liz Boyd with www.SusanParadis.com and bought some music stickers and piano manipulatives to use in my lessons. I also won an item in the silent auction, which raises funds for the Texas Music Teachers Education Foundation. I won a box of wooden cutouts from www.DenneheyDesigns.com. Last night, we heard a wonderful concert form the lovely Dr. Artina McCain www.ArtinaMcCain.com. If you aren't familiar with her, please check her out. It's been a wonderful, exhausting conference!!

We’re continuing in our series “Acts: To All the World” as we dig deeply into the book of Acts, and learn about the early days of the church, its gatherings and leaders, triumphs and tribulations. We'll be focusing more closely on the end of Acts 15 this week, as Pastor Kent brings a sermon titled "Divided Over John Mark." Last week, we considered a church conflict that involved larger groups of people, and how that was resolved. But it can often be the most personal conflicts that can cause disagreements, and even division among Christians. We'll be considering one of these conflicts together, and exploring what we can learn from what happened and how it was resolved.To learn more about us, visit www.braemarbaptist.com.
