Trust forms the bedrock of meaningful parent-child relationships, yet many parents struggle to build and maintain it effectively. In this transformative episode, I offer a profound guide to earning and restoring trust with your children through biblical principles that challenge conventional parenting approaches.

Drawing from scripture and personal experience, we explore the warning against "exasperating your children" and demonstrate how gentleness in correction opens the door to genuine transformation. Through the story of finding my young son experimenting with a heat gun on the garage carpet, I share how responding with grace rather than anger creates space for authentic learning and growth. This powerful approach mirrors God's own patience with us, reminding parents that "it's the goodness of God that leads us to repentance."

Whether you're navigating challenges with teens, rebuilding broken trust, or simply wanting to strengthen your family bonds, these insights provide a roadmap to becoming the "trusted fellow" your children need for guidance through life's complexities.
