“It is only rest in God’s presence and grace that will make you a joyful and patient parent. If you’re struggling to be patient, finding it hard to be joyful and sometimes dreading the next day of parenting, could it be that your struggle to be tender and loving to your children is rooted in the reality that you are overburdened and overwhelmed…perhaps in all your work to be used by God, to produce children who know what it means to rest in His wisdom and grace, you have forgotten how to rest yourself.”
- Parenting, Paul David Tripp
In this episode we circle back to the book we unpacked earlier this season, and discuss how rest is a key part of being a healthy parent.
This is our last episode for this season of Southland’s Parenting Podcast but we are already recording fresh content and will be back soon for season two. Thanks for joining in!
