The Biblical Parenting Principles seminar uses God's principles to help God's people withstand the attacks of the modern culture and bless them with great families.

On April 23rd our family will be on British television, channel 5, 21:00. "Raised by the Hand of God" is on Biblical parenting. You might like to take a look if possible. It is quite fair though the introduction sounds a bit more extreme.

The idea is simple. God is the Designer. Parent His way. We are not experts or perfect parents. We are humbled by our mistakes of the past. Our confidence is that by applying God's principles to family life He will restore the family to its glorious design.

Visit the BFF Resource Center in order to order your copy of Biblical Parenting Principles or to obtain the reading, slides, handouts on a CD.

Biblical truths are combined with practical insights gleaned from many years of countless parenting opportunities. New insights arise each day in raising eight children, ages 18 months to 24 years!

We are never alone in parenting.

God our Father works closely beside us. If we are attentive, He leads us carefully through the minefields of myths that are aimed at destroying our goals of raising godly children. The Biblical Parenting Principles series is introduced above, but other helpful parenting articles are offered on the Family Page also from Biblical Foundations for Freedom.
