Mother-daughter team Elyse Fitzpatrick and Jessica Thompson discuss a radical approach to parenting. What does gospel-centered parenting look like?
Here are some highlights from the video below:
- 0:55 Elyse on how she just wanted her kids to be good.
- 1:22 The goal is to love Christ. You want your kids to know that the motivation behind rules is the gospel.
- 1:51 We’re all legalists
- 2:20 When you parent with the law you only address the law-breaker. When you parent with the gospel, you address the heart of the Pharisee (rule-keeper) as well.
