Welcome Moms of Old and Young...

...(and Anyone in Between)!

You know the 20+ questions that we didn't get to answer at the Young Moms/Old(er) Moms gathering? Well using the blog forum, we will indeed be able to answer each and every question and have other moms chime in on the answers!

For starters, one question will be posted each week with one older mom contributor answering the question. Then the younger and older moms can chirp in and add other ideas and suggestions.

An email reminder will be sent when a new post is put up!

It should be fun!

If you're trying to form your convictions on how to parent your little ones - or just want some encouragement - please listen to these. If you want to listen to the whole series, click here.

The Bible wisely guides parents to remember that their children are gifts from God. This recognition will lead to nourishment, discipline, and instruction done in the Lord and for his glory.

Training, Discipline, and the Rod

Because children are sinners, training them requires patience, clear communication, and consistency. The rod, when used Biblically, will help young children learn the appropriate response to the authority of God.
