"A Little Bit of a Baby"
EPISODE 148
Reflect God's Grace in Your Parenting
One thing every Christian parent seems to have in common is extremely high expectations — for ourselves and our kids. So this week we get to the heart of the gospel, because even in a parenting series we can't go far without relying on God's grace. We draft our A-Team of merciful and gracious people, we talk about the power of an apology, and we wonder, "Which is harder to deal with, your mistakes or your kids'?" Finding Jesus in 2 Corinthians 12, we're reminded that Christ is with us in our pain and his grace is enough! So we hope you find encouragement and hope as we celebrate the "the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" (Eph. 2:7).
Takeaways
The Big Idea: The gospel of grace gives us a new lens to see ourselves, our kids, and our parenting.
This Week's Challenge: Share a personal struggle or shortcoming you've had with someone.
