What do you do when you realize that how you parented your children was deeply flawed?

That you messed up? The way you raised your children has done them a disservice? The good news is that it’s not too late; parenting is not a ‘one and done’ event. Instead, the gospel speaks to all of our failings as parents with grace and a chance for redemption, both with God and with our children. 

In the book I’m writing I share that despite my best intentions and efforts to raise my children well, 13 years into parenting, I hit a wall. Through story work, I discovered how my own childhood trauma had impacted me in detrimental ways, and I realized that my parenting needed an overhaul. I hope to offer readers a lens through which to understand and embrace the gospel rhythms of repentance and forgiveness in parenting, providing tangible hope in the process of restoration.
