Gentle Christ-Centered Parenting :: David and Amanda Erickson [Ep 363]

Published: April 18, 2022, 5:32 a.m.

\u201cPeaceful\u201d and \u201cparenting\u201d aren\u2019t words we usually put together. Think about the parenting moments that stick out to you from the last week \u2013 was there anything peaceful about them? What if there could be? What would it change for you if parenting didn\u2019t feel like moving from one fight to another? My guests this week, Dr David and Amanda Erickson of Flourishing Homes and Families, encourage us that it IS possible. Peace and grace can be meaningful parts of your parenting \u2013 not only for your kids, but for you. The gospel always brings freedom.

Gentle Christ-Centered Parenting will not only change the dynamic of your house, but it will set your kids up for success in the hardest parts of life \u2013 responding with grace when someone hurts them, learning to hold boundaries and communicate their needs in a way that still respects the dignity and honor of the person who hurts them or crosses those boundaries and how to collaboratively problem solve. Ultimately, there is no better place for them to see reliance on the Holy Spirit\u2019s work in life than through us fighting against sin by his power in our own lives. David and Amanda have fostered children and are raising two biological kids. They too have had to work against the patterns of their own childhoods to transform their parenting.\xa0
