Equipping Young Parents in the Basics of Gospel-Centered Parenting at GraceLife Beachside Church in Ormond-By-The-Sea, Florida

Abstract

This project’s purpose is to equip the young parents of GLB in the basics of Gospel-Centered parenting. Chapter 1 introduces the history, philosophy of ministry, and context of GLB as well as the goals of this project. Chapter 2 supplies strong biblical support and exegesis of three passages of Scripture (Deut. 6:1–8; Ps. 78:1–8; Eph. 6:4) that establish that parents ought to raise their children in a clear knowledge of the gospel. Chapter 3 demonstrates that spiritual maturity, emotional health, and a fundamental understanding of how people change are needed to parent children effectively. Chapter 4 details how the project was prepared and implemented at GLB. Chapter 5 concludes with an evaluation of the project’s overall efficacy based upon its intended purpose and goals.
