{"product_id":"sacred-parenting-dvd-304831","title":"Sacred Parenting (Dvd)","description":"Many books have been written about how to parent a child effectively, how to become a better parent, and how effective parenting produces better kids. But SACRED PARENTING delves into an entirely different reality: how parenting affects the parent. It explores the spiritual dynamics of parenting, and why caring for children is such an effective discipline in shaping our souls and forming the character of Christ within us. Thomas doesn't tell parents how to handle a chronically sick or rebellious child, but he does help parents find spiritual meaning behind the almost heroic care such children require.   \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eBecause SACRED PARENTING is not a \"how to\" course, it openly admits the difficulties, struggles, and failures that often accompany parenting. And it goes on to show how God uses those trying and discouraging times to build up the parents who experience them. Parents of all children will be encouraged by the examples of how other men and women have successfully handled the challenges and occasional defeats of parenting, and will be inspired by stories that reaffirm the spiritual value of being a parent.   \u003cbr\u003e***- Publisher.***  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this six-session small group Bible study DVD, Sacred Parenting, Gary Thomas uses a unique lens to look at parenting, moving beyond raising great children to becoming more holy as a person.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What if one of God's primary intentions for you as a parent isn?t about successfully raising perfect children, but about you becoming more holy?
