At times the challenges of parenting can overwhelm even the most confident individuals, but many parents face the additional hurdle of building a family without the benefit of having observed healthy models in childhood.
Because she grew up in a home where faith was not practiced, author Mary E. DeMuth understands firsthand the fears, frustrations and anxieties of those who want to avoid repeating their parent's mistakes - but who lack the necessary tools to break the cycle. In Building the Christian Family You Never Had, she combines encouragement and real=life stories with fresh insights and practical tools to equip parents with the strategies they need to deal with such challenges as:
- coping with criticism and objections to their faith-based parenting decisions
- finding positive parenting mentors
- shielding children from the negative influence of family members
Building the Christian Family You Never Had offers hard won wisdom for those who want to overcome the difficulties of their past and give their children a new spiritual legacy of security and strength.
Includes a chapter-by-chapter discussion guide designed for group use.
