If you’ve been asking: “Is spanking okay?” “Am I doing permanent damage?” “How do I hold my child accountable without harming the relationship?”

…this episode will give you some honest perspective to work through those questions.

I’m sharing my own story:

  • The one time I didn’t regret spanking my son — and why

  • The three times I absolutely did

  • What Scripture really says about discipline, anger, and balance

  • How to think through guilt when it comes up

  • And what to do if you’re questioning whether your approach is aligned with what you actually want for your kids
