Parenting on the Edge

By / Sundays at 9am, through February 23, 2025

How do we effectively parent the children God has given us? Many of us come into parenting only knowing the examples we had as children growing up – positively and negatively. This class will address, through varied speakers and discussion leaders, principles of biblical wisdom and then seek to apply that to situations in parenting. A class for parents and future parents, come prepared to ask questions, hear perspectives and then be free to discuss. 

In this class: 

  1. Parents are encouraged and challenged to see God’s call on them as parents.
  2. Parents are equipped with simple, memorable biblical framework for making decisions for their families.
  3. Parents develop friendships and meaningful relationships
  4. Parents are encouraged to ask questions and discuss the topics each week
