Not a "how-to" on parenting, but a "why-to"

I'll let Tripp's own words speak for themselves: "What’s missing in most Christian’s parenting are the big grand perspectives and principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ." "These perspectives are radical and counterintuitive. When you parent with what the gospel says about God, you, your world, your children, and God’s grace, you not only approach parenting in brand new ways, but you carry the burden of parenting in a very different way.” "You cannot ask the law to do what only grace can accomplish." "If rules and regulations had the power to change the heart and life of your child, Jesus would never have needed to come!" This book is filled with wisdom if you need a little assistance connecting grace to parenting.
