Great Parenting Resource


This month, PCC will launch a new season of Community Groups--small groups that meet weekly for Bible study, encouragement, prayer, and service. I'm so excited about the book that my group is going to study, so I thought I'd share a little about it. The book, Shepherding a Child's Heart, focuses on what the Bible says about parenting. So many parenting books mention helpful techniques and strategies, but most parenting books fail to give you a parenting model from the pages of Scripture.

Here's a basic summary of the book:

"Shepherding a Child's Heart is about how to speak to the heart of your child. The things your child does and says flows from the heart. Luke 6:45 puts it this way: ' Out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. ' Written for parents with children of any age, this insightful book provides perspectives and procedures for shepherding your child's heart into the paths of life."

You can see why my wife and I are excited about reading through this book with our small group. If you're a parent, I encourage you to check this book out!
