LOVE IS FEARLESS

#043: Are we confused about childhood?


Listen Later

What if we're living life following an old game plan?  What if we're requiring our children to learn a game plan for life that has expired?  What if life by design is better than we ever imagined?

Join Doug and Janet in this episode as they vulnerably share the story of spending much of their Easter Sunday in the parking lot of a casino--sorting truth from lies about life by default and life by design. Find challenge and inspiration in these take aways from episode #43: 

  • Conformity is not the plan for childhood; transformation is the plan.  Maturity is a transformational experience.  We can't manipulate maturity.
  • We only have so much time with our children.  Will we spend it manipulating our kids to get them to conform? or will we, even clumsily, begin to discover what it means to meet their legitimate needs in the ways of love?
  • Will we risk finding others who are willing to do this life, too--and offer our kids an honest childhood--with conversations instead of simply compliance and conformity?
