About this book
"A gospel-infused framework for the kind of loving correction that will help all of us train up a child in the way he or she should go."Ā
Bob Lepine, Cohost,Ā FamilyLife Today
Parenting can be a challenge. Sometimes it seems like all we do is give directions and all children do is disobey. How can we promote good behavior and a peaceful home without becoming harsh drill sergeants on the one hand or passive pushovers on the other?
This book aims to help you better understand loving correction through clear steps and practical tips aimed at transforming not only your children's behavior but also their hearts. Rooted in three principlesā keep it God-centered, always mean what you say, and reward obedience rather than disobedienceāthis is a guide to consistent, faithful discipline that mirrors the grace-giving, truth-speaking God of the Bible and sets the tone for a loving, joy-filled home.
