Parenting Is a Ministry

More about the book

Doing our best as a parent is not what God desires; He wants us to fulfill His will. Many Christian parents today lack a godly example from their own upbringing, leaving them confused about God's intentions for raising children. Aware of this, God provided His Word as a guide. This book offers practical tools for parents, emphasizing the importance of a strong spiritual foundation, teamwork in marriage, and meeting children's emotional needs without compromising faith. It covers how to disciple children and instill values like personal responsibility and self-control, as well as how to start anew. While every Christian parent aims to do the right thing, parenting according to God's Word often requires deliberate instruction or a parental example. Being a parent is a vital task entrusted to us by God, and we must rely on His Word and grace to succeed. Pastor Craig F. Caster, Founder and Director of Family Discipleship Ministries, is a trusted resource for equipping families. With over 20 years of experience as a youth pastor, counselor, teacher, and speaker, he has developed biblically based tools for marriage and parenting. Craig has been married since 1980 and has three children, sharing his insights through seminars and conferences across the US and internationally.
