Parenting - A Southland Christian Church Podcast
There isn't a tougher job on the planet than parenting! At the same time, there are a ton of voices speaking into how to do it. We are releasing a new podcast for parents that focuses first on the heart of the parent because at the end of the day, you can't give what you don't have. We want so many things for our kids, but often what matters most when it comes to our parenting is the condition of our own hearts. That's what our new podcast is all about.

“Resilience is the capacity to retain core purpose and integrity in the face of dramatically changing circumstances.”
— Todd Bolsinger
When the heat gets turned up, change is happening and challenges are being faced, we can stay calm (acknowledge but not give in to our emotions), stay connected (don’t isolate ourselves—don’t take our ball...
Kids today are no longer sad, they’re depressed. They’re no longer worried, they are anxious. They are no longer “going through a hard time,” they are “experiencing acute trauma and PTSD.”
Our kids today have received more mental health intervention in the form of therapy of some form and yet by every measure, this generation’s mental hea...
If you were to walk up to the average person you know and say, “how are you?” The number one response will probably be, “busy.”
We can be busy for a season, but we all need to have some margin in our lives. That margin is there for things like rest, other people, emergencies, and spontaneity. If we fill our schedule to the degree that if ...
Our kids are paying attention to the risks we’re willing to take. Being actively involved in the church is going to provide us with plenty of opportunities to do things that are head-scratchers to the world, but because of Jesus they make perfect sense.
So if our kids see us partnering with Jesus, in community and serving together on miss...
“It is only rest in God’s presence and grace that will make you a joyful and patient parent. If you’re struggling to be patient, finding it hard to be joyful and sometimes dreading the next day of parenting, could it be that your struggle to be tender and loving to your children is rooted in the reality that you are overburdened and overwhelmed…perhaps in all your work to be used by God, ...
Through the course of our life, God uses different things, circumstances and people to make us more like his son, Jesus. Our children are excellent instruments in the hand of God to both reveal how much we are still not like Jesus and also to help transform us more into the image of Christ.
Galatians 5:22 talks about the fruit of the Spir...
What we pray for our kids tends to reveal what is important to us. As a parent it’s easy to get caught up in praying for specific things for our kids as they come up: prayers for safety, favor in school or a sporting event, or prayer for wisdom in a certain situation. And it’s good to pray for these things!
But sometimes we fail to push b...
Ephesians 6:4(NLT) Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.
Whether it be public, private or homeschool, there are more options for school choice than ever in most places today. And while Read more
Psalm 127:3 (NIV) Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them…
“Good parents don’t always produce good kids. Parents should constantly be asking themselves where they get a set of values that te...
The most influential thing on the hearts of our children—for good or for bad—is the state of our own hearts and what comes out of us.
We have all been influenced by our own individual experiences growing up. Some of us only had one parent around. Some of us didn’t have a strong faith component in our lives growing up—no map to guide us on...
