GETTING AFTER THE HEARTS OF YOUR CHILDREN

Thank you to everyone who attended this class in January of 2024.

In the midst of folding laundry, coordinating carpool schedules, and breaking up fights, many parents get lost. Feeling pressure to do everything "right" and raise up "good" children, it's easy to lose sight of our ultimate purpose as parents in the quest for practical tips and guaranteed formulas. In this life-giving class, Paul Tripp offers parents much more than a to-do list. Instead, he presents us with a big-picture view of God's plan for us as parents. This class covers the first four of his "14 Gospel Principles That Can Radically Change Your Family."

After laying down foundational parenting principles, Tripp covers specific applications for children 0-5, 6-12, and 13-18. This conference also includes a free PDF Leader's Guide and Discussion Guide, filled with helpful application questions for couples and small groups.
