"There are no sure-fire formulas here. If there were, I'd throw the book away. But there are discerning observations from committed, caring parents who have learned to think biblically about raising children in the midst of busy lives."

—Dr. Larry Crabb

Mothers and fathers know parenting is no small challenge. There are pressures from without and tensions within. We need all the help we can get. Yet parenting can be a wonderful experience!

This handbook guides parents in discussion of twelve key topics. You can study and talk together about such questions as:

What place should anger have in our family?

Why does our child, whom we deeply love, feel unloved?

Can we learn to build family members up rather than tearing them down in our daily interactions?

In what ways are our family's needs changing?

How can each of us as parents get our needs met in this family?

Each chapter is followed by discussion questions used by a couple - or by a single parent and a concerned friend. A second set of questions is tailored for use by a group of parents.
