398. Worried About Messing Up Your Kids?

Welcome back to the kitchen table. It’s easy to believe the lie: I could so easily mess my kids up.You feel unequipped, uncertain, and the voice in your head whispers, you’re going to get this wrong.

He makes promises, and he keeps them. Colossians 1 reminds us that he is the one who equips us fully. He holds it all—your strengths, your struggles, your children’s needs.There isn’t a gold standard of motherhood that matters. There is a God-standard. And, he promises to walk with you through it all.You can let go of the fear that you’ll mess your kids up, because he is in control. Your job isn’t perfection—it’s trust. Walk with him in raising your children, and rest in the truth that he is more than enough.Learning the Art of Gospel Discipline ConversationsThis 4-week private podcast and workbook course teaches you how to approach discipline with a framework that goes beyond correcting behavior.
