A Unique Approach To Parenting That Shapes Character, Not Just Behavior
Raising morally-mature children these days may seem like a pipe dream, but family counselor Diane Moore's new book, "Parenting the Heart of Your Child," provides the help parents need to make it a reality.
(PRWEB) May 31, 2005 -- Raising morally-mature children these days may seem
like a pipe dream, but family counselor Diane Moore provides the help parents
need to make it a reality
While searching the Bible for evidence of
God's design for our spiritual and moral development, Diane began to see that
God always worked with people at their various stages of development,
continually working to mature them to higher stages, what she calls, "The Secret
Path the Heart Takes to Maturity."
In her book, Diane takes parents down
this insightful path to help parents discover:
1. How vital they are in
shaping their child's character
2. The importance of motives in changing
hearts
3. Keys that will enable their child to make wise decisions in
every stage of life
4. God's wonderful plan for moral development—and
how parents can cooperate with Him to bring their children to full maturity in
Christ.
Practical and informative, challenging and thoroughly biblical,
"Parenting the Heart of Your Child" can help everyone in the family to make the
right decision, even when no one is looking.
Includes a study guide with
Scripture references for applying the lessons of each chapter.
"Diane
Moore helps parents establish the foundations that will help children develop
positive decision-making skills," said Roger Cross, President Emeritus of Youth
for Christ/USA.
