Most families are just surviving. Arrows & Acres is for the ones who want something more. Daniel and Allison Hartman are a husband and wife raising a large family on Florida's Gulf Coast — homeschooling, homesteading, running a family business, and doing all of it on purpose. This podcast is the conversation they're having at the kitchen table, in the truck, and at the end of a long day — and now they're pulling up a chair for you. They're not here to motivate you. They're here to challenge you. Every episode cuts into the real stuff: what it actually takes to raise children who become capable, godly adults. How to protect your family's attention in a world designed to steal it. What biblical manhood and womanhood look like when you strip away the cultural noise. How to build something together as a family — a business, a homestead, a legacy — without handing your life over to debt or a schedule someone else controls. What it means to disciple your children n…","last_synced_at":"2026-09-10T00:21:27.284478+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/arrows-and-acres-7836536"},"episode":{"title":"Who Decides How Many Children You Have?

Do you know what causes that? Daniel and Allison Hartman have heard every comment a family with 11 children collects. This episode answers the question underneath all of them, and it is bigger than any headcount: who actually gets to decide? They told their premarital counselor they were planning on four children. Daniel quietly hoped for twelve. Then Scripture rewrote the plan, and what followed was never a numbers game. It was a trust game. In this episode: - The moment early in marriage that shifted how they thought about planning a family - Psalm 127 and the Hebrew word behind \"heritage,\" an entrusted portion, not a burden - The movement people accuse them of, and why building identity on a headcount is idolatry - Money, time, and patience: the three objections every large family hears, and how each one collapsed in the Hartman home - The friend who lost a baby, and what trusting God with your womb actually promises - What Daniel and Allison say to the couple who is outnumbered, tired, and hearing it from everyone \"Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one's youth.\" Psalm 127:4 NKJV Subscribe at ArrowsAndAcres.com and never miss an episode.
