Grace Based Discipline: How to Be at Your Best When Your Kids Are at Their Worst

Every parent wants to know,

"How do I discipline my kids?"

"Parents face a crazy paradox," says author Karis Kimmel Murray. "We love our kids exactly as they are, but we also love them too much to let them stay that way "

Disciplining kids is tough . . . even on a good day. We just want the 140-character version of what we should do when our kids' behavior scrapes the enamel off our sanity. Here's what God says:

"The Lord disciplines the one he loves," (Hebrews 12:6).

With humor and down-to-earth practicality, Karis shares stories of trial and triumph straight from the trenches of parenting. From the first page, Karis gives desperate parents a reliable recipe for peace, boundaries, and effective discipline.

In Grace Based Discipline, learn how to:

• Stay calm, even when you're staring down the barrel of a loaded toddler
• Customize your discipline to your child's unique personality, age, and needs
• Set rules based on God's priorities, not yours
• Apply consequences that really work

Here's the good news: you can do this. Responsive, grace-based parents are just ordinary people who've learned to tap into divine help.

Be at your best . . . even when your kids are at their worst.

Grace Based Discipline will show you how
