Your most exhilarating joys and agonizing sorrows will likely come from the same source... your children. As parents we understand that raising children is a high stakes adventure. Think about it for a moment. The God of the universe decided that each of us would make our grand entrance as helpless little babies, completely dependent on someone else for survival. One of the greatest stewardship responsibilities you will ever undertake is taking one of those little babies and rearing them to be mature, responsible, followers of Jesus. To say that is a great challenge is a vast understatement. With so many competing ideas and philosophies, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and paralyzed. This feeling is amplified by the fact that many of us come from broken and dysfunctional families. But there is HOPE. In the midst of all the white noise about parenting, God has given us some clear and timeless truths to follow. In House or Home, Parenting Edition, Chip Ingram teaches timeless truths about God's blueprint for parenting and offers a wealth of personal experience and practical help. With courage, tenacity and focus, this series has the potential to forever change the trajectory of your family life and how you relate with your children. Book jacket.
