Synopsis

The idea is simple. God is the Designer. Parent His way. We are not experts or perfect parents. We are humbled by our past failures, but we know by experience that applying God's principles to family life will restore any family to its glorious design.

Principles and Practices of Biblical Parenting explains not only what God says about raising a godly family, but why those principles from God’s Word work.

From their experiences in raising eight children, Paul and Linda explain biblical principles and practical advice on key issues including:

• Understand parenting goals

• Set and implement standards

• Train toddlers

• Develop self-control

• Advice to win back your teen’s heart

• Restore your relationships with your children.

God wants you to succeed in raising a wonderful, godly family!

About this title

About the Author

Paul and Linda Bucknell, were both raised north of Boston. Their overseas church planting ministry experience was highlighted by the birth of their second daughter in 1985. Later while pastoring in Pittsburgh, PA in the 90's, six more children were added to the family, for a total of eight (3 boys and 5 girls)! Over many years of parenting and homeschooling (still in progress after 25 years!), they have learned much about biblical parenting. Paul says, "God gave me a lot of children because He knew I needed a lot of practice!" After pastoring for ten years, Paul founded Biblical Foundations for Freedom a web-based training ministry (www.foundationsforfreedom.net). He has written more than twelve books. Paul travels internationally to train Christian leaders on various topics such as spiritual growth, marriage,and parenting. Paul and his wife of 33 years, Linda, still reside in Pittsburgh,PA, and now have two grandchildren.
