We live in a culture that seeks to destroy the embryonic faith of our children and usher them into politically correct ideology, godless systems of belief, and gross immorality that would have shocked previous generations. This is what confronts today's Christian parents and many of them are terrified of it. We live in truly perilous times. But the good news is there is a way you can be victorious in this battle for the hearts, minds, and souls of your precious children.

Perhaps there has never been a more challenging time to raise children than in today's culture. Parents are having to address challenges that their parents never had to with them. And while the core elements to raising children are the same, parents need wisdom for applying them to this day and age. That's what this book is about: navigating the times and raising a generation of men on godly principles - sons who are ready, able, and motivated to represent God during their days of sojourning on this earth.

Children need love. Parents need respect. It is as simple and complex as that! When frustrated with an unresponsive child, a parent doesn't declare, "You don't love me." Instead the parent asserts, "You are being disrespectful right now." A parent needs to feel respected, especially during conflicts. When upset a child does not whine, "You don't respect me." Instead, a child pouts, "You don't love me." A child needs to feel loved, especially during disputes.

Do you believe your struggle with anger stems from the wrong behavior you see displayed in your children? The knee-jerk reactions and blowups you're facing are often a result of a bigger set of "triggers". Some of these are external, like a child's disobedience, back talk, or selective hearing, while others are internal, like an overflowing schedule, sleep deprivation, or perhaps your own painful experiences from childhood.

Even if you know what to do, you usually have some doubt as to if what you are doing is correct, or if you should make even the smallest alteration. This book is just as great for those that don't know what to do, as it is for those that already use discipline and just wanting confirmation that they are applying it correctly.

EVERY Parent Needs This Book!
Do you really want what's best for your child? It's a confusing world out there these days with all of the new age studies "proving" (emphasis on the quotes) new methods of parenting. Help yourself get unconfused by relying on thousands of years of wisdom of biblical based parenting.
Discipline is too often confused with harshness or oppression. Discipline is love and kids do better with it than they ever will without it. This book tells you simply the value of discipline and how to successfully implement it.
