Summary

In today's show, we respond to some of your great questions. We cover praying over your children, what it looks like, and what it doesn't look like. We discuss how easy it can be to use prayer to manipulate our children into the version we hope to see more of in them. We dive into some helpful and practical tips on praying over our children that you can start doing today! The second question we respond to is connected to the first because so much of parenting comes down to the connection between God and our children, the relationship between parents and their children, and sibling to sibling, to name a few. We talk about practicing truth and love with our kids to build trust and respect in our connection with them. We explore the difference between discipline and punishment and why being willing to be the bad guy sometimes as a parent is essential. Also, some funny stories in today's show illustrate our responses to these excellent questions. We hope you laugh and learn and find room for grace as you practice these tips in your families. Enjoy!
