Put the littles to bed, grab a beverage, and gain confidence through this engaging series. 

The challenges of parenting in uncertain times requires a supernatural confidence to  engage, inform and empower you and your family to rise above the fray. The uncertainty of how this COVID season will impact our immediate future in the midst of a media culture programmed to seek control of the hearts and minds of our families can shake our own confidence to our core if we allow it.

So what does faith have to do with it?

This series on parenting will offer insights about how our faith in Christ Jesus empowers us to create resilient a family culture, instill discipline as empowerment and make home a place of rest and restoration. Some of the learning objectives include:

• How to make faith in God a very personal and relevant application for the heart and mind across the generations that only you can model for your children.

• How our faith informs us about:

  • Parents are inherently equipped to be their child’s primary teacher for life.

  • The difference between compliance and obedience when addressing behavior and behavioral health issues at home.

  • The origin of liberty and the value of discipline to defend this liberty as love language in your home.

• How science informs us about the vulnerability and resilience of the human condition and what this understanding means for genuine connection in the parent-child relationship.

• How to create a family creed and house rules to overcome uncertainty and project confidence in yourself and your children to overcome uncertainty and adversity.
