Parenting is hard, and the truth is, by your own strength, you don't have what it takes. But thankfully, God never intended for you to parent by your own strength. There are two key questions to parenting. How do I really help my child grow into who God intends for them to be? And, how do I overcome my failures and imperfections as a parent? Thankfully, both questions have the same answer...grace! God's grace is so much more than just our ticket to heaven. God's grace is the power to live, and to parent. Parenting is not about raising perfect children. And there is definitely no such thing as the perfect parent. Instead, God is looking for Moms and Dads who will tap into the power of God's loving kindness and then pour that loving kindness into the lives of their children. So, if you are an imperfect parent that wants God's best for your imperfect children, this is the book for you!

Moms are under so. much. pressure. Pressure that weighs us down and threatens to wipe us out. Are you ready for relief? Mom Set Free will empower you to parent in the confidence of God's grace and to experience the freedom you were created for. We moms are told that we have to get it all right so our kids turn out right. We’re told that their entire futures are riding on our ability to perfectly orchestrate their lives. And we’re told that the strength of their faith hinges on ours. And we begin to believe that if we just try hard enough, we can actually “be enough.” These impossible standards leave us stuck in worry, anger, guilt, comparison, and shame. Jeannie Cunnion gets it. And in Mom Set Free she reveals how the Good News of the Gospel empowers us to live—and parent—in the freedom for which Christ has set us free. Jeannie invites us to journey alongside her as we learn to: -Lay down what God has not asked us to carry so we can thrive in what He has. -Embrace our significance in our children’s lives in light of God’s sovereignty. -Trust God with the children He has entrusted to us. -Receive God’s grace so we can reflect God’s heart to our kids. It’s time to breathe deeper, walk lighter, and reclaim the wonder and adventure of parenting.

Reveal God to your children by parenting them like He parents us. Tired of all the parenting books full of strategic checklists, how-to advice, and quick tips? Instead of focusing on parenting techniques, Like Our Father is about who God is, who we are in light of that, and how God's character gives form to our parenting. Christina Fox invites you to explore the Scriptures and discover the goodness of the God who makes us His own. As God's beloved creatures, we bear His image--that is, we reflect Him to others. Is anything more important to pass on to our children than this? Though it's tempting to want an instructional manual on child-rearing, what you really need is a grander vision of your Heavenly Father. As your kids share in your magnified vision of God, they'll begin to live as the image-bearers that He made them to be.

Sometimes in our childhood, we fantasize about our future parenting skills and how we will be the ultimate mom or dad. These grand visions rarely survive the first few months of our own journey as parents-once that specter of self-will first manifests in our new bundle of joy. We quickly learn that while parenting is infinitely rewarding and a wonderful blessing, it is also a difficult, sometimes confusing, often thankless responsibility. We find ourselves wishing for a clear, simple, and preferably, illustrated instruction manual. In Purposeful and Persistent Parenting, John and Cindy Raquet seek to share, through encouraging examples of their journey toward God-honoring parenthood, the lessons they learned in raising their eight children. With personal stories of triumph and failure, goal-setting (and resetting), many practical tips, and a little blue tape, they hope that this work will be a valuable companion on your own adventure in parenting and instrumental in helping you to truly enjoy the work of raising your children.

From the family that brought you The Lifegiving Home and The Lifegiving Table, discover how you can become a parent who gives your child a life worth living for Christ. In today’s world, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and even paralyzed by the constant flow of parenting advice. We’re flooded with so much practical information that we wonder if we’re choosing the right way. And we may be missing the one thing God really wants us to give to our children: His life. God doesn’t include a divine methodology for parenting in the Bible, but He does provide principles that can enable any faithful parent to bring His life into the life of their home. In The Lifegiving Parent, respected authors and parents Clay and Sally Clarkson explore eight key principles—heartbeats of lifegiving parenting—to shed light on what it means to create a home where your children will experience the living God in your family. Now parents of four grown children—each with their own unique personality and gifts—Sally and Clay have learned (sometimes the hard way!) that the key to shaping a heart begins at home as you foster a deep and thoughtful God-infused relationship with each child. Filled with biblical insight and classic Clarkson stories, The Lifegiving Parent will equip you with the tools and wisdom you need to give your children much more than just a good Christian life. You’ll give them the life of Christ. (Don’t miss the companion piece, The Lifegiving Parent Experience!)

Believe it or not, the Catholic family isn’t primarily a human institution. It’s a divine one. By uniting with the sacramental life of the Church, your common, ordinary, crazy family becomes something sacred, a “domestic church." Family therapist and parent Gregory Popcak and his wife, Lisa, are back with Parenting Your Kids with Grace. Building on their best-selling book Parenting with Grace, first published twenty years ago, this new volume draws on the same parenting principles and provides up-to-date research to guide parents through each stage of child development from birth to age ten. Practical, faithful, and humorous, Parenting Your Kids with Grace addresses four key questions: Are Catholic families called to be different from other families in the way we relate to one another in the home? If so, how? What does an authentic, family-based approach to Catholic spirituality look like in practice? What can the latest research tell us about creating a faithful home and raising faithful kids? How can Catholic families be outposts of evangelization and positive social change? By checking our basic assumptions about parenting against both the Church’s vision and what science can teach about living out that vision in healthy ways, we can discover God’s plan for parenting healthy, godly kids.

Grace is often defined as the unmerited favor of God, and as His children, we are extended His grace on a daily basis. We truly don't deserve it; yet, day after day, He bestows it upon us -giving us a new opportunity each day to "get it right." No matter what we did yesterday, because of the grace of God, we get a "do-over" and we get to try again. As a child psychologist and Christian parent, I know full well how powerful parenting with grace can be. That same feeling we get when God gives us grace and we know that we totally screwed up the day before, is the feeling our children get when we give them grace and start the new day with a clean slate -no matter what they did the day before. It doesn't mean that we don't discipline or that we don't address any misbehavior or disrespect; it just means that we aren't going to let that misbehavior or disrespect destroy or negatively impact our relationship. We deal with the dirt, but we deal with it in love. We mete out the consequences, or we allow the natural consequences of our child's behavior to manifest; but we NEVER forget that we were once children ourselves trying to figure this thing out. We don't forget that we ourselves are children of the Most High God and that we mess up BIG TIME, yet He gives us a fresh start every day. I truly believe that when we parent with grace, with mercy, and with unconditional love; our children can feel it deep in their spirit and soul and often times not only do they choose to behave better, but our relationship as parents and children is preserved. And at the end of the day, the relationship is all that matters. So, the purpose of this devotional is to encourage you as a Christian parent and to give you some things to think about and pray about as you strive to parent your children with grace -with unmerited favor. No, they often don't deserve it, but give it anyway. Because we have to remember always, that we don't deserve God's grace either; and most of us are doing FAR WORSE things than our kiddos... I pray that this devotional adds value to you and to your family and that it encourages you to protect your relationship with your children by being a parent who is full of love, full of mercy, and most especially FULL OF GRACE...
