Parenting Conference

Just wanted to pass along some info. Dr. Tim Kimmel author of Grace Based Parenting, will be in Portland April 20th and 21st at Good Shepherd Church. I highly recommend his book if your anything like me and feel OVERWHELMED with parenting at times I would definitely check it out. Here is the link for more info Raising Great Kids.

A few quotes from the book. 


" Our children are a gift we send to a time that we will not see. We need to send them into that time so secure that even if we have long since passed away, they will rest in the confidence that they are loved."

 "Love is the commitment of my will to my children's needs and best interests, regardless of the cost.""Wisdom is seldom available to the young, but it's made available sooner rather than later when we see that part of our role as parents is to teach our children how to turn knowledge into practical truth and insight. That's all wisdom is -knowledge with the ability to utilize it effectively."
