Courageous Parenting

Sometimes it feels as if the best we can do as a family is tosurvive. The ups and downs of life leave little energy or hope ofdoing more than simply gritting our teeth and plugging ahead withlife. Anything beyond this seems a long way off. But there isreason to believe that our families can thrive. Healthy, God-centered relationships with your spouse andchildren can be had only through building on the right foundation.There must be genuine faith, morality, spiritual understanding,discipline, enduring patience, character, kindness, love, and muchmore. This is a daunting list, one that most of us feel is toogreat a challenge to attain, but it can be achieved by building ourfamilies on the unshakable foundation of Jesus Christ. Often it seems as if building a strong family is nearlyimpossible. Parents need to be encouraged, though, because creatingand growing a family of this kind is possible by the grace of Godthrough the guidance of His holy Word. Throughout the pages of this book, Jack and Deb Graham teach uswith biblical models for the home, provide practical advice forparents, and speak from years of their own experience in activeministry and parenting. They offer support and encouragement toparents for the often overwhelming task of raising a family thatrepresents and reflects Jesus Christ, and they put forth a call forcourage and godly confidence in forming a biblical legacy for ourchildren and the generations that follow.Graham, Deb is the author of 'Courageous Parenting', published 2006 under ISBN 9781581347449 and ISBN 1581347448.
