Good for new parents, and good refreshers for seasoned parents. Also, this book contains some Blended-Family wisdom.
The goal is to tirelessly teach, train, and pray that God will change their hearts.
Your children’s character will define their lives—it will affect their commitments to marriage, family, and career. It will govern their choices and determine what legacy they will leave to their children.
Even though your children will try to make you feel like the meanest parent, correcting and giving discipline is the most loving thing, the most courageous thing, perhaps the most effective thing you will ever do for your children.
Note:
Dennis and Barbara Rainey have such a relatable style and insight. Their years of parenting advice, combined with excerpts from their grown children and others, are presented in this easy read - and one that will leave you with great resources. No judgement - just honesty and sound advice. Love that this book includes wisdom for blended families as well.
"Would you be satisfied if your children developed a walk with God like yours? If not, then what needs to change in you?"
Solid, thorough, foundational parenting book from godly, wise, experienced parents and leaders. This will be my go-to suggestion for new parents, as well as for those of us who need refreshing encouragement and reminders about what we aim to do in parenting and how we can do it.
