Loving Our Kids on Purpose

Excellent book! Our heart to heart connection with our children is key. Thank you Danny. The tools presented here will help build deep bonds and increase the resiliency of the relationship through difficult times.

I’m so thankful I’ve read this book!! This is the way to do it!! I’ve been doing it all wrong :/ but better late than never . This makes sense to me heart. God is about the heart. And I love that!!

Absolutely great book! We are newly married and don't have children yet and I'm so glad I found this before we start a family because the principles in this book can be applied to any relationship. Definitely am talking a lot about this to friends and family and encouraging everyone to read it!

I feel like I have stumbled upon a gold mine of wisdom. My first couple years as a dad I tried to control my daughter even though I love her and try to be Jesus in the flesh. Now I realize how far from the way Abba father wants us to live and teach our children to love that style of parenting was. I am striving to teach my kids to live in freedom, give them true choices, and control my own behavior by the power of the Spirit of Jesus in me. Thanks Danny!

I just finished reading through this book a second time. At some point, a light went off in my head. This stuff just makes sense. I was brought up in a southern gospel, yes sir, no ma'am, spare the rod and spoil the child home. And although, like many of us, my Christian parents were doing the best they knew how to raise me, I obeyed them and did the "right" things out of fear of punishment. In "Loving Our Kids on Purpose," Pastor Danny lays out the love of God for us -- a love that honors and empowers, not polices and punishes. A love that teaches us to make choices and live freely. It is exactly what we want for our children. He gives several practical tips for communicating with your kids, and handling some of the more challenging interactions. I have just started to implement some of these concepts with my own son. Before that, however, I let the Holy Spirit deal with my own issues with God directly. I needed to get a better understanding of His love for me before I could extend that kind of true, fierce, faithful love to anyone else. This book is a complete paradigm shift in parenting. But the central concept is as old as God and has been right under our noses our whole lives. Read this book, then read it again.
