Book Synopsis

Congratulations! You had a baby, but now what?

Have you ever been struck by the weight of responsibility of being a parent? Have you ever asked, how am I supposed to raise this little person to be the person God created them to be?

Think about it. You are responsible for this little person. What you do impacts them. Your choices will profoundly shape who she or he becomes! What do you want home life to be like for them? What are your core convictions about raising kids, and how would God want you to raise them?

Prepare Them to Flourish offers a framework for raising children according to God's wisdom. It helps you to:

• Understand why one minute you can feel amazed by how precious your child is and the next he makes you want to pull your hair out.
• Grasp God's goal for raising kids.
• Relate to your kids as the authority in the home the way your heavenly Father relates to you.
• See that correction is actually a small part of discipline.
• Prepare your kids to live according to God's wisdom.

There are no guaranteed formulas when raising kids but there are guiding principles. By the end of this short book, you will understand how to create an environment of wisdom and grace in your home that, by the grace of God, can prepare your child to flourish.
