Early Childhood and the Bible: Raising Godly Kids in an Ungodly World

Understanding Behavior as Communication Through a Christ-Like Lens


Listen Later

Every tantrum, meltdown, or misbehavior in young children is saying something deeper. In this episode, we explore how a child's actions are often their way of communicating unmet needs, big emotions, or unspoken struggles. More importantly, we'll discuss how parents and caregivers can respond with patience, wisdom, and Christ-like love.

Drawing from biblical principles and practical parenting strategies, you'll learn:

  • Why children's behavior is rarely "just bad" but often a message

  • How Jesus' example of compassion shapes the way we correct and guide

  • Practical steps to redirect behavior without crushing a child's spirit

  • How to create a home atmosphere of grace, truth, and consistency

If you want to move beyond frustration into Spirit-led parenting, this episode will equip you to see your child's behavior as an opportunity for connection, not conflict.
