Parenting is joyous, magical, tiresome, boring, impossibly stressful and complicated. When parenting as a Christian, the weight is made lighter by God’s wisdom and strength, and by the support of the body of Christ. With the big picture of eternity in view, we can rely on our Lord and our brothers and sisters who share our faith in him for support and direction.
Parenting in God’s Family contains reflections and advice by 16 authors from many different walks and stages of life, all seeking to encourage and equip parents with biblical wisdom and practical tips. It covers topics as diverse as sibling relationships, schooling choices and single parenting, as well as discipline, doubts and digital boundaries. Parenting in God’s Family is a Christian support that fathers and mothers can lean on as they seek to care for and guide their children—in line with God’s word—towards emotional, spiritual and physical health and maturity.
Produced by the Growing Faith community and filled with exclusive articles not available online, this book is an excellent companion that Christian parents will read and keep close at hand.
