Handbook to Joy-Filled Parenting (Volume 1)

Handbook to Joy-Filled Parenting is a comprehensive parenting book that can help you parent from birth to college using Biblical principles. The book combines information about the latest brain science research on how joy affects a child’s developing brain with practical, every-day tips for all ages. Chapters include topics on how marriage relationships and emotional maturity affect parenting, how to mentor your teen, how bonds and synchronization affect a child’s security and a section on how to prevent or heal traumas through healing prayer. Drawing from her experiences as a mother, grandmother, nanny, counselor, teacher and mentor, Barbara illustrates her tips with stories and examples, emphasizing her passion for prevention of problems by following God’s design for life, while encouraging parents to face their own issues and find healing when needed. If you have a passion to be a good parent, the Handbook to Joy-Filled Parenting, and its accompanying workbook, should be part of your library.
