For the Love of Discipline: When the Gospel Meets Tantrums and Time-Outs - Paperback

by Sara Wallace (Author)

Is discipline something you do to your kids--or something you do for them? Biblical discipline is holistic; its ultimate goal is a child's growth in the Lord. That means that the gospel does much more than plug nicely into a discipline program. The gospel is true discipline's driving force, turning parental instruction and training into a rich, transformative part of daily life. And that doesn't happen just by accident. Written by a mom on the front lines, For the Love of Discipline takes short chapters to work through typical discipline issues from a gospel perspective. Along the way, Sara offers personal examples, teaches practical strategies, and shows how to pursue "discipline skills" every day. Moms will stop spinning their wheels in quick fixes and behavior management and find renewed strength in God's own gracious shepherding and love.
