Discipline needs leadership, and our families need parents willing to lead.

The Parent Adventure: The Discipline Adventure
In our current culture of parenting, we are seeing some of the negative effects of indulgent-parenting and over-parenting. As parents have tried to help and protect out of love, they have enabled their children to become helpless, irresponsible, and narcissistic. Our children need consistent boundaries and discipline that match their maturity and responsibility.

God’s love does not keep us from trials, but His love sees us through them.
The Parent Adventure: Planning The Adventure
There are so many unplanned moments that happen in a family – broken plumbing, unexpected health emergencies, a call from the Principal, moving to a new city, your child threatening to run away, evacuating your home, flights cancelled, sickness diagnosed – you have to constantly be flexible and change . . . and be ready to go on a detour. This is not easy! When parenting, planning helps give margin to our lives – so we don’t spin completely out of control in the midst of crisis.
