There is no one-size-fits-all method that will work for every parent-child relationship. However, there are principles of life that do apply universally.
In Raising Powerful Children in a Broken World, author Joy Beirne teaches these principles so you can parent with faith and confidence instead of with fear and uncertainty.
While the how-tos of parenting are important, this book emphasizes that empowerment comes in understanding the "why." When you understand why you're disciplining your child, why you're affirming, and why you must forgive, you begin to parent with purpose, intention, and confidence, knowing that, by God's grace, you are on a journey to raise powerful children.
Raising Powerful Children in a Broken World encourages you to provide boundaries around your children's souls, restraining them from growing in self-centeredness. With these boundaries in place, you'll discover how to win the hearts of your children and gain their trust.
As confirmed by parents who have learned these principles in workshop settings, by following this book, you will raise children who are able to make sound choices, build strong relationships, enjoy who they were created to be, and who possess greater self-awareness and value personal growth.
