About this listen
Do you worry that you're messing up your kids? Do you get stressed when you think about their futures? New York Times best-selling author Crystal Paine knows how you feel. A mom of four, Crystal has struggled with anxiety over parenting. She wanted to parent with grace, instead of a system of rules where kids are expected to do all the right things. She wanted to be a safe place for her children, and she definitely didn't want to be remembered as the sort of mom who yelled, wounded her kids with words, or worse, cared more about her reputation than her kids' hearts.
In this book, Crystal shares the life-changing lessons that God has been teaching her about raising kids with love and grace. In Love-Centered Parenting, Crystal will: reveal the no-fail secret to launching your kids; uncover the root of why we often feel so frustrated and irritated with our kids; share the four most important choices we can make as parents; give you the tools to keep going when you want to give up; and help you get your kids to talk to you.
It is possible to parent from a place of freedom and rest, giving your kids what they truly need to thrive in this world.

Do you believe your struggle with anger stems from the wrong behavior you see displayed in your children? The knee-jerk reactions and blowups you're facing are often a result of a bigger set of "triggers". Some of these are external, like a child's disobedience, back talk, or selective hearing, while others are internal, like an overflowing schedule, sleep deprivation, or perhaps your own painful experiences from childhood.

Maybe you knew how much something would hurt, but you said it anyway because it felt good in the moment. Maybe you’re fighting a habit of complaining or yelling, when you really want to be a person who speaks with kindness and patience. Or maybe you stay silent because you’re never quite sure what to say. Whatever your “maybe” may be, you are in the right place. As a wife, mom, and the creator of the popular Modern Farmhouse Family Instagram, Sarah Molitor has learned firsthand that yes, words can hurt―but they can also help and heal.

If you're like many Christian moms today, you've been reading the headlines and watching the rapid-fire changes in our culture with frustration and fear. Let's face it: Moms today are facing questions that previous generations didn't even see coming, and even our right to determine what is best for our own children is under fire. Popular speaker and blogger Heidi St. John ("The Busy Mom") believes that today's mothers need a special kind of strength. We need to be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.

Excellent parenting book!
This parenting book is excellent - it gets to the heart of why and how we parents our children. I appreciate her personal story and road to embracing grace and love over performance and rules. Highly recommend for anyone but especially those who come from a background of rules based, performance based, “because I said so” parenting. Great narration and easy to listen to!

Great book
Personally I read nothing other then the authorized King James because it’s scripture. But the book was good. It was a blessing to learn through the author. It gave me a great perspective on raising my 3 kids, how to aim at approaching situations differently. To rest in God. To trust in God and to examine my heart and see how that inspires my parenting. Not to parent to seek approval but to do it for my children’s hearts. Thank you.
