Parenting With Conviction and Grace

Parenting has never been easy, but raising children in today's world can feel overwhelming.

In this episode of Good & Godly, Adam and Tara discuss what it means to parent with both conviction and grace. Through Scripture, biblical examples, church history, and practical application, they explore the difference between discipline and control, why faith is primarily caught at home, and how parents can faithfully shepherd their children's hearts without carrying the weight of being their Savior. Join us as we look at God's design for parenting, learn from examples like Hannah, Eli, Timothy, and Monica, and discover how to trust God with the children He has entrusted to us.
