About the Book:
PUT THE DISCIPLE INTO DISCIPLINE gives parents the tools they need to truly disciple their kids through their most trying discipline situations.
How do you respond when your three-year-old is throwing pennies at other carts as you walk through the aisles at Target? Or when your eight-year-old daughter rolls her eyes in a dramatic fit of preteen angst? Or when your sixteen-year-old son is lying as he attempts to go somewhere that he never should be?
These are the tough moments in parenting.
But they are also the moments that will define your kids.
We want to give parents the tools they need to truly disciple their kids through their most trying discipline situations. With these tools, parents can guide their kids' hearts towards the God who loves them deeply, and survive those pull-out-your-hair parenting moments. We pray that PUT THE DISCIPLE INTO DISCIPLINE will help parents to connect with their kids in a heartfelt way so that their kids, in turn, can connect with the God who created them to be truly and imperfectly His.
My Thoughts:
My children are all grown now and almost out of the house, but I have five grandchildren, so I was curious about what Erin MacPherson and Ellen Schuknecht had to say about discipline. I was pleasantly surprised and found their take on raising children refreshing and insightful.
The authors take turns writing alternate chapters. The topics covered "The Hot Cheerleader Incident" is written by MacPherson. Scuknecht discusses "Drifting Apart", as well as "A Friend in Need". The entire book turns the concept of discipline upside down, placing the emphasis on the "disciple" in the "discipline".
I thoroughly enjoyed reading "Put the Disciple in Discipline" very much, and highly recommend the book to young parents and even parents with teens. I'm giving this book my "packs a punch" tag, and until the next book...
Mark Your Place,
