Parenting: From Surviving to Thriving
Charles SwindollPaperback 2008-05-06
In Parenting: From Surviving to Thriving, beloved pastor and teacher Dr Charles Swindoll explores God's divine plan for successful families.
Do you see parenting as an opportunity to grow closer to your heavenly father or as one more trip to the grocery store, one more soccer practice, one more troubled teen? Whatever parents know of parenting, they know this: it can be difficult. But what happens when you put God in the middle of a chaotic house?
Dr Swindoll is convinced that God made you a parent for a reason. In fact, it's part of His divine plan for you. Knowing that many are treading the parental waters, Parenting: From Surviving to Thriving offers Dr. Swindoll's trademark biblical advice to get you from dread to joy, from exasperation to empowerment.
