Parenting from a Biblical Perspective*
Tuesday, 9.19.23 @ 10:30 am-11:45 am OR Tuesday, 9.19.23 @7:00-8:15 pm
*Registration required.
Children seek to answer their fundamental questions: Who am I? What do I
exist for? Where can I find joy? What difference can I make? They need a consistent, persuasive, biblical framework for understanding the world God has made, their identity in being made and loved by Jesus, and their place in this world. This session will share common emotional struggles of boys and girls in various developmental stages as well as practical advice, biblical support for formative instruction, and conversation starters to help our children navigate their emotions and trials through grace, hope, and truth.

*Registration required.
Instructing a child’s heart is essential to shepherding. We should impress truth on the hearts of our children, not to control or manage them, but to point them to the greatest joy and happiness that they can experience—delighting in God and the goodness of his ways. Discipline alone is not adequate instruction. All corrective interventions must focus on the good news of the gospel and corrective

This session will share insight on Biblical formative instruction as well as practical support in discipline that draws out matters of the heart and employs natural/logical consequences.
