You're Not Enough to Parent Your Kids...But God Is

Do you ever wonder, “Am I actually capable of parenting my children?” In this episode of The Gritty Gospel, Christy Young sits down with her husband, Larry, for a raw, theological, and deeply encouraging conversation about Christian parenting, weakness, discipleship, motherhood, fatherhood, and what it means to depend on God when you feel completely unequipped. The truth is, parenting exposes us. It exposes our fear, anger, impatience, control, pride, exhaustion, and desperate desire to get it right. But the answer is not to pretend we are enough. The answer is to confess the truth: we are not enough, but God is. Your children do not need you to be their savior. They do not need a perfect mom. They do not need a flawless dad. They need parents who repent, obey, pray, disciple, and keep pointing them to Jesus. In this episode, we talk about: *Why Christian parents feel so overwhelmed *The danger of trying to be the savior of your children *Why parenting is discipleship, not behavior management *How God equips weak and dependent parents *Why obedience matters even when you feel inadequate *The difference between control and faithful leadership *Why your child’s heart ultimately belongs to God *What to do when you feel like you are failing as a mom or dad This episode is for Christian moms, Christian dads, homeschool parents, foster parents, adoptive parents, and any parent who has ever whispered, “Lord, I cannot do this.” The good news is not that you are enough. The good news is that Christ is. #ChristianParenting #BiblicalParenting #ChristianMotherhood #ChristianFatherhood #GospelCenteredParenting #TheGrittyGospel #FamilyDiscipleship #HomeschoolMom #ChristianMoms #ParentingByFaith #RaisingKidsForJesus #BiblicalMotherhood #faithfulparenting Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/mountaineer/juciest License code: APZ86SA2O5APTMD2
