Send us Fan Mail David Gainey has served as the founding and lead pastor of Oasis at Rita Ranch since 1997. He and his wife, Hope, have five children. The mission of Oasis is to care for broken people so they can learn to care for others through Jesus Christ. In this episode of the JCM Podcast, Pastor Gainey joins Pastor Cepin to begin a multi-episode conversation on parenting. They start with a foundational question: What are we actually trying to accomplish as parents? Together, they talk about the goals that shape the way we raise our children, how our vision of discipleship influences parenting, and why clarity about the end goal changes the choices we make along the way.
