There are very few things harder than parenting... at least parenting well (let's be honest, most dads have considered duct taping that pacifier to the kid's face after putting it back in three or four times). Coming up in April we're going to launch another session of Revolutionary Parenting, a class on how to raise your kids in a way that God would want you to.  Here's a few quotes from people who have already taken the class...

"This class is great! My wife and I have the house all to ourselves now!"

"It's really wonderful knowing that the kids aren't around to barge in any time they want!"

Oh, wait.  I'm sorry.  Those are the quotes from our Revolutionary Retirement class (which doesn't really exist).  Here's the real stuff from real people...

"My wife and I are parents of a six and four year old.  We attended the Revolutionary Parenting Class and learned not only about our own approach to parenting but the parenting of others as well.  In addition to the material that is covered, the discussions that we shared with other parents helped us to implement many new ideas and concepts.  Most importantly, Revolutionary Parenting showed us how to structure our parenting around the Biblical idea of what God intends for us as parents to provide our children."

"The class did a nice job helping my husband and I to think about our job as parents in a more purposeful way, specifically in a spiritually purposeful way.  When we had thought of raising JD, we had thought of the things we needed to do to prepare him with the foundation necessary to be a successful person in this world, but we had NOT always put enough planning into what we needed to do to purposefully prepare him spiritually.  The class helped us to think about what SPECIFIC values and virtues did we want to instill in JD, and THEN what did we need to do to help lay the foundation so that we did create a home and an environment that facilitated those values and virtues.  Now we have the framework that allows us to think about how we are raising him, and are our actions matching up with where we want him to be when he leaves us.  It was an excellent experience."

Southland offers lots of opportunities to sharpen yourself into the person God wants you to be.  If you think Revolutionary Parenting would be for you, keep an eye out for the class in April.  If you're interested in other classes or learning what we have going on, just contact Pauline.
