In the hustle and bustle
of everyday life, how do we, as parents, honor the spirituality of
our children?
As we
shuttle between our jobs and their school, soccer practice, piano lessons,
ballet lessons, birthday parties, and doctors' appointments, how do
we find the time to encourage our children, through the ups and downs
of growing up, to turn to God for guidance? This mother-daughter team
offers practical advice that works.
Parents, regardless of whether they
belong to an organized religion or not, report that the book has been
profoundly inspirational. Each chapter revolves around one of 10 principles
of spiritual parenting and includes insights and specific suggestions.
Particularly helpful are the
Parents Check-In Questions and Childrens
Check-In Questions which can be used as a springboard for opening
discussions and deepening the dialogue around the core of the Principle.
The affirmations are nice too. I like how this book is organized. Its
not about going from the beginning to the end.
Parents
are encouraged to pick and choose. Once youre familiar with the
principals, you know where to flip to for suggestions and insights.
Use it as a sort of guidance manual for nurturing spirituality in your
children. You might be surprised to find that youve
concurrently nurtured spirituality in yourself.
