The Rooted Family Podcast
The Rooted Family is a podcast for Christian millennial parents who are tired of the rushed, chaotic pace of modern family life—and deeply desire something different.
Hosted by Christian and Kayla Cornish, parents of seven and founders of Legacy Roots Co., this show is all about building a countercultural family life rooted in faith, intentional rhythms, and Christ-centered formation. We believe following Jesus in today’s world means slowing down, living on purpose, and creating a home shaped by values—not culture’s noise.
Each episode offers practical, step-by-step tools to help your family move from busy and overwhelmed to peaceful and rhythmic. We talk about family systems, daily routines, spiritual disciplines, marriage, parenting, big faith, and everyday Christian formation—always with real-life application for the modern family.
You’ll learn how to:
Create simple rhythms and routines that actually work
Build systems that support faith, peace, and connection at home
Go deeper spiritually as parents—and help your kids grow in their own faith
Live intentionally and pass on a meaningful legacy
Choose slow living and purpose in a fast-paced world
If you’re longing for a family life that feels grounded, faith-filled, and aligned with what matters most, you’re in the right place.
✨ Subscribe to The Rooted Family and start building a home that’s deeply rooted—spiritually, relationally, and intentionally.

What if family life wasn’t something to survive—but something to savor?
In this trailer episode of The Rooted Family Podcast, Christian and Kayla Cornish share the heart behind the show and the journey that led them to slow down, simplify, and build a more intentional family life.
As parents of seven and founders of Legacy Roots Co., they know firsthand the pressure of modern family life—busy schedules, full plates, and the desire to follow God faithfully while raising a family and pursuing meaningful work.
Through trial, growth, and hard-won lessons, they’ve learned that rhythms—not hustle—are essential for cultivating peace, purpose, and depth at home.
The Rooted Family is a weekly podcast for Christian parents who want to trade busy for better.
You’ll hear honest, unfiltered conversations about practical rhythms and routines, building a peaceful family life, strengthening marriage, and forming faith in everyday, ordinary moments.
This isn’t a podcast about perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about taking small, faithful steps toward a home that’s rooted in Christ and aligned with what matters most.
