Publisher's summary

This is more than just a parenting audiobook. It's a tool to use with your child. Each chapter is divided into two parts. The first part is a fiction story about a family who experiences problems and then learns a new tool. Listen to this section along with your child. It presents family issues from the parent's perspective. Children are often blinded by their own viewpoint and seeing the problem from the parent's view is eye-opening. Furthermore, it opens opportunities to talk about ways your family relates and ways you can make changes.

In this audiobook, you will learn:

  • Four truths that will motivate you to continue on when you're tired, discouraged, and ready to give up.
  • A powerful strategy to help children change their hearts—not just their actions.
  • A unique concept that will reveal the cues you give to tell your children when they must obey.
  • A six-step "secret weapon" you can use when all else seems to have failed and you need a bigger plan to help children develop character, not just change their behavior.
  • Three practical ways to be a coach to your children and help them learn from life.
  • One small ingredient to add to your parenting to help your children develop wisdom.
  • A three-step plan to help your children deal with anger through frustration management, anger control, rage reduction, and releasing bitterness.

Read if you need peace in the home!

Scott Turansky has taken biblical parenting and explained it for parents dealing with real-life struggles.
The story line is helpful to relate to the real issues that come up daily with our children (and us as parents), while the explanation and recap at the end of each chapter helps tie it all into practice. Narration was great too!

Extremely practical application of scripture!

Highly recommend this to anyone who is struggling with raising children or simply wants to be a better parent. Full of practical tools that are effective at every stage of parenting and family dynamics. Practical tools with great theology.
