Episode 57: Don Manning

Don Manning is a family man, a crazy cool family man...of God.Don and his wife Suzanne, have raised 7 wonderful, godly children.It's no accident, but there isn't a playbook they followed.They wrote one along the way.Rethink the Way You Do FamilyYou can find their playbook on Amazon at the link above.BTW, the book is just one aspect of what is now their full-time mission.Raising godly children is hard. Intentions may be good, but pulling it off is exceptionally hard.Why? Because we tend to "force" our faith on our children. It's our job right?While it may be our job, it can't be a goal, it's mission, a way of life.And it needs to be done by example, love, forgiveness and faith.You don't "tell" your children to be godly. You show them.If do the work as parents, you earn the privilege to be their friends when they are older.I hope everyone reads this book an checks out their website www.crazycoolfamily.comThe world would be a better place for it.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/eating-crow.
