Parenting is hard work! Raising children in the fear and admonition of the Lord requires consistency, strength, and much wisdom. Equally important to effective parenting is keeping the Gospel at the center of all child-rearing attitudes and activities. In short, it is the Gospel that shapes and transforms parenting by keeping the focus on Christ’s work on the cross not only as the source of our salvation but our sanctification as well. In his book, Gospel-Powered Parenting, William Farley aims to keep the Gospel at the forefront of every aspect of parenting. He does this by demonstrating how the Gospel affects parents: it teaches parents to fear God, motivates parents to lead by example, teaches parents to discipline their children, motivates parents to teach their children, causes them to love their children, and provides the answer for all parenting issues. If you have children and want to keep Christ and the Gospel at the center of your parenting, this book is a must read. It is the best book I have read on parenting!
