Growth Mindset Podcast




In this, the last of our series of podcasts on Cultivating Resilient Families, Pastor Will and I talk about baseball, hospitals, forgiveness, and  how to grow from mistakes that are dealt with instead  of hidden.  What a wonderful blessing that repentance and forgiveness cultivate a growth mindset in our children.

Thank you to Pastor Gary and Pastor Will at Faith Lutheran Church, School, and Touching Hearts Child Development Center for supporting parents in the most important work of raising their children in the faith.

Parenting with Law and Grace

http://faithlutheranpodcast.libsyn.com/cultivating-resilient-families-episode-2-law-and-grace

Here is the second podcast in a series called Cultivating Resilient Families. In this podcast, Pastor Will Miller and I explore the topic of best practices in parenting. We discuss how there is no one right way to raise a child because our children teach us what they need. We also discuss the importance of law (expectations) and grace (responsiveness) in our everyday dealings with our children.
