Summary
- Why is having a Romans 3:23 vision of parenting important for parents?
- What is the difference between being hard on yourself for not being a better parent and sinning in omission or commission that requires repentance?

- What role does comparison play in parent guilt?
- Do you see a difference between grief over sin and guilt over unmet expectations?
- How can moms and dads preach the gospel to themselves when it comes to their parenting shortcomings?
- What role does community play in addressing parent guilt?
- Where do you see moms and dads potentially feeling guilty specifically around family discipleship?
- What is a godly response to making parenting mistakes?
- What is the relationship between parenting guilt and Christ’s warning to not be anxious about anything?
- What does modeling a guilty reaction to our own mistakes model for our kids that we don’t want them to learn from us?
- If we could not get over our parent guilt, how would you counsel us?

| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the Family Discipleship Podcast, a podcast of Training the Church. |
| 0:12.5 | This is Adam Griffin, and before we get to our topic of the hour, let me first introduce you to my two lovely co-hosts first, Mrs. Cassie Bryant. |
| 0:20.2 | How are you doing today, Cassie? |
| 0:21.8 | I'm doing great. It's Friday. It's the weekend. It's the weekend. Yeah, it's the church worker weekend. |

| 0:40.9 | Speaking of women working, let's talk about guilt. |
| 0:42.9 | Let's talk about parent guilt. |

| 1:11.9 | I don't know. |
| 1:12.7 | Do you ever see any parent-guilt stuff coming into your door? |
| 1:15.9 | Do I ever? |
| 1:17.3 | Oh, my goodness, all the time. |
| 1:19.6 | Honestly, I feel like this is just anecdotal, |
