Northeast Christian Church
Our job as parents is to produce mature, loving, God-fearing, Jesus-following, productive adults.
PARENTING ON PURPOSE:
1. GODLY DISCIPLINE COMES FROM LOVE NOT ANGER
LOVE INSTEAD OF ANGER:
-Clearly state expectations
-Give a verbal warning
-Have the pre-discipline talk
-Follow through w/discipline
-Affirm your love for them & give them a hug
2. GODLY DISCIPLINE CREATES SECURITY NOT SHAME
3. GODLY DISCIPLINE IS MORE ABOUT THE FUTURE THAN THE PAST
TAKEAWAY: What do you need to start doing; what do you need to let go... to better parent on purpose?
