Parenting is hard. Yes, we love our kids, but they know how to misbehave and push all our buttons. We want to raise them to love and obey God, but we can’t even get them to obey us!

Here’s the good news: we can learn to respond to our kids with love, firm boundaries and grace-based discipline, even when their behavior lights our fuse.

In this study, Karis Kimmel Murray, author of the book, “Grace Based Discipline” will teach you how to:

• Stay calm, even when your staring down the barrel of a loaded toddler

• Set rules based on God’s priorities, not yours

• Apply consequences that really work

Lesson 1 Respond- Learn to respond rather than react to your kids’ misbehavior.

Lesson 2 Relate- Build a relationship with your kids based on love, kindness and grace.

Lesson 3 Regulate- Make rules that focus on developing godly character.

Lesson 4 Reflect- Uncover the deeper issues behind your child’s behavior.

Lesson 5 Redeem- Deal with your child’s poor choices in a way that reflects God’s heart.

Lesson 6 Reform- Learn to choose effective consequences that really work.

Please note: Participants are encouraged to read along in the book, Grace Based Discipline during the study.
