Listen "On Gentle Parenting"
Episode Synopsis
This is Empires of the Future, conversations to encourage the Church in a time of change.
On Gentle Parenting
In this episode, we discuss an article by Trevin Wax for the Gospel Coalition entitled “The Church’s Opportunity When ‘Gentle Parenting’ Crashes.” We agree with Wax that Gentle Parenting is lacking in some key areas, and examine the philosophy behind gentle parenting, what it assumes about children and people in general, and why we believe it does not reach the goals it strives for. We also outline authoritative, biblical parenting, which does not fall into either the domineering, authoritarian style nor the passive, discipline-lacking parenting that is too often the norm in our culture today.
"The Empires of the future will be Empires of the Mind." - Winston Churchill
