We can grow by constructively dealing with it, but when we live with consciousness and skill, we minimize pain and increasingly grow through joyful means rather than the “school of hard knocks.” Growing Through Joy can help you experience ...

Since the 1960s, Bill Gothard’s teachings about authority and character have captivated countless numbers of Christian families. Building his Institute in Basic Life Principles outside the framework of most churches and denominations, Gothard created his own unique religious system.
