Picture this. You're in the kitchen. One kid is crying over the blue cup. Another just spilled cereal.

You haven't had coffee. And suddenly something inside you snaps. Yeah, because, you know,

parenting tests every single part of your values and character. So today on the podcast, we're

talking about parenting when you're tired and triggered because

that's where the real work of discipleship begins.

For sure.

Discipleship, that's a word I want to talk about a little bit today.

We're going to walk you through a four-part model.

This model is called the Maid Model, M-A-D-E.

And you'll learn how to repair with your kids, not just react.

You're going to learn how to really connect before you correct.

And how to align your discipline, again, going back to discipleship,

how to align your discipline with the heart of God, not the heat of the moment. Right. And

disclaimer here, this is our learning with you because we are in the, in the very thick of it,

raising two kids. They're just incredible. I'm so proud of them. I love them. And they still test us

a lot. For sure. They are, they are six

and seven and very six and seven. And if I remember correctly, I think the kids were like maybe three

and four or four and five when we did an episode very much like this one where we were in the thick

of it saying, here's what we're trying right now with our

strong-willed child. We thought our first was strong-willed. We found out we were wrong. Our second

is the most strong-willed. Very strong-willed. So I feel like they're awesome. They're becoming

incredible, just man and woman of God.
