In this episode we talk with Jocelyn Loane about the thorny topic of discipline. We explore what biblical discipline really means - it's not just punishment for a past wrong, but rather the loving, intentional, wholistic, long-term process of modelling, encouraging, training and correcting our children to help them mature towards godliness.
We talk about:
- What is discipline?
- Why do parents need to discipline?
- How can discipline go wrong?
- Is it OK for Christian parents to smack (or not to smack) their children?
- How can we best respond to our children's bad behaviour?
