Are you feeling overwhelmed as a parent in today’s world? If you answered a resounding “yes, ” this is the course for you.

The current world of parenting is scary with multiple world crises, technology overload, and distrust of leaders. This course, “Parenting on Purpose,” attempts to find a way forward through the turmoil to raising healthy, self-aware children who are filled with empathy and trust while remaining rooted in the age-old idea of following Jesus. Using Biblical strategies of social justice-based problem-solving as well as practical advice on fostering empathy and kindness, parenting can be intentional and purposeful

Learners will look at two different strategies for parenting from the books Parenting Forward by Cindy Wang Brandt and Intentional Parenting by Doug & Cathy Fields.  This course will also explore how you can start a parenting group in your local congregation or community to continue the conversation.
