Balancing Grace and Truth in Parenting: Steve C. Ward's Guide

Parenting with grace and truth requires being thoughtful in our approach. Sometimes that means accepting with serenity things we cannot change. At other times we are called to summon the courage to do what is right, even when it's hard.
Parenting is no walk in the park, but what if you could blend grace and truth to raise well-rounded kids? In this episode of 'The Next Right STEPS', Steve C. Ward dives into the art of balanced parenting. He shares how you can enforce boundaries with love and instill values without losing warmth. It's all about finding that sweet spot where grace doesn't mean leniency, and truth doesn't become harshness.
Steve outlines five key areas where effective parents shine: setting goals and boundaries, being patient and kind, leading by example, encouraging healthy activities, and teaching kids about truth. But it’s not just about ticking boxes; it’s about embodying grace yourself. Steve reminds us that grace is an unearned gift, a reminder that we’re loved even when we don't deserve it. By accepting this for ourselves, we can pass it on to our kids.
This episode is packed with practical advice for parents who want to be both firm and loving, guiding their children with wisdom and compassion. Whether you're a seasoned parent or just starting out, you'll find nuggets of wisdom that can make your parenting journey smoother and more fulfilling.
