Summary

Am I getting parenting right? That's a question that crosses our mind quite often. Which makes anyone who decides to write a book with so bold a title as Parenting: Getting it Right, either have a lot of courage or be out of their mind.

Fortunately, Pastor Andy Stanley and his wife Sandra (authors and founders of North Point Ministries), who bravely wrote such a title, have parented successfully! Sandra joins us this week to talk to Josh about their experience as parents of now three grown children.

Sandra and Josh talk about:

What "it" actually means
The four seasons of parenting
Why behavior modification is not the goal, but relationship is
Ways to adapt your words and approach with your kids specific to their personality
How to reflect Jesus as your kids mirror your behavior
