Ep. 2.11 : What BAGS are your kids carrying? With Chris Sasser
We’re thrilled to have Chris Sasser with us again on the Raising Sinners Podcast. Chris has been around kids for a while now, serving as youth pastor for many years and now as pastor of Family Ministries at Port City Community Church in Wilmington, NC. Whether it’s his own kids or a student at the church, he sees up close and personal what kids are up against today and how many are struggling with identity. Aren’t we all? The world is telling us one thing, we’re struggling to believe what God’s word says about us. And the cycle continues.
In this episode, Chris shares how his passion to help people embrace their true identity in Christ and live a life for God, led him to write his very first book, BAGS.
BAGS was written to help parents lead their kids into a more emotionally, relationally, and spiritually healthy life. What bags do kids pick up as they grow? How can we help them unpack these bags? And what are the long-lasting negative impacts of these bags. How can we help them lighten the load?
Chris shares the 8 most common bags kids grab, put on and oftentimes wear into adulthood.
Listen in for a candid, and engaging conversation as well as how to ask the question to your child…”What bags are you carrying?”

About Raising Sinners
It all started in 2016 with Lisa Clark’s book, “Raising Sinners,” but she knew there was more to say. The Raising Sinners podcast tackles all the topics and questions parents have about raising their kids! Lisa and her co-host Chrissie Dunham, and the occasional special guest, cover it all: sibling rivalry, dating, and social media, but also discuss raising children who don’t fit the mold and even that pesky “mama guilt.”
While sin can be fun in the moment, it’s never funny. Lisa and Chrissie walk this line well, finding light and laughter though the difficulties of parenting, but always having pointed, relatable, and reverent discussions that focus on God’s word and what the “manual” has to say about our parenting.
Lisa and Chrissie have been podcasting together since 2018 through their other show, The Wonder Podcast. You can connect with them on Instagram @talkwithchrissieandlisa.
About Lisa Clark and Chrissie Dunham
Friends for several decades, Lisa Clark and Chrissie Dunham have lots of laughs and giggles teaching and sharing their life experiences on the podcast they co-host, The Wonder Podcast. It has definitely been their outlet over the past 3 years to share stories, testimonies of God’s faithfulness and provide insights into what God is teaching them during this stage of life.
Adding to that outlet, they’ve joined the Christian Parenting Podcast network recently with the debut of their newest podcast, Raising Sinners. Their backgrounds are similar, having both been raised in Christian homes, college, marriage, and birthed two daughters. Chrissie is definitely the personality of the duo as Lisa laughs at all Chrissie’s jokes and quietly waits for her to take a breath so she can add a thing or two! But the second half of life has proven to be their favorite season thus far.
Empty nesting, grandparenting, time with family and friends, has filled their cup these last few years. But along with life’s greatest blessings, comes great sorrow, and God has shown up continually, keeping His promises as a faithful, covenant keeping God. “He walks with us in every season and makes Himself known.” Chrissie and Lisa speak professionally to church groups, women’s events/conferences, retreats and more. Lisa’s niche is parenting, and she authored “Raising Sinners” several years ago to chronicle her own parenting journey with an emphasis on biblical parenting.
