Children are a gift and a blessing from the Lord but in raising them, you quickly realize this incredible privilege can also be very challenging and humbling responsibility.

The Gospel-Based Parenting course will use the book, Parenting – 14 Gospel Principles That Can Radically Change Your Family by Paul Tripp. Outlining fourteen foundational principles centered on the gospel, he shows that we need more than the latest parenting strategy or list of techniques. Rather, we need the rescuing grace of God―grace that has the power to shape how we view everything we do as parents. This is a great resource for those raising children from elementary ages and up into the high school years. Click here to order the book from Amazon. 

Taught by Bob and Leisa Shull along with Karl and Jessi Scherm, this course will include discussion and interaction as a group and at tables, allowing you to ask questions and get feedback from current parents and grandparents. We will learn how gospel-centered parenting is not a list of do’s and don’ts. Instead, we will see how God desires us to use the gospel in our parenting, and from that perspective, evaluate why we do the things we do.

This course will be held Wednesday nights at RBC, 7-9:00pm, starting October 9, 2024.
