Love, Limits, and Delight: What Grace-Based Parenting Really Looks Like :: Cody Kimmel [Ep 546]


Listen Later

What does it really mean to parent with grace? Does choosing grace-based or gentle parenting mean we throw out discipline or become permissive? In today’s episode, Cody Kimmel and I, explore the deep spiritual truths behind parenting the way God parents us, full of grace, full of truth, and full of delight. Parenting is not about perfection. It’s about partnering with God in the work He’s doing in our kids' lives. When we align ourselves with His heart—gracious, truthful, joyful—we parent from a place of rest, not reaction. Here is some of what we cover:

  • How to respond to a talking-back teen with both love and limits
  • How our own sanctification plays a role in how we approach our kids and discipline 
  • The role of trust and play in your relationship with your kids
  • Grace doesn't mean permissiveness, it means parenting the way God parents us
  • How modern parenting gets it wrong by saying parenting is death to joy and freedom but there is incredible beauty and delight in motherhood
