Ever notice that everyone has a very specific opinion about how you should or shouldn’t raise your children? Have you noticed that the stronger the certainty of that opinion the more likely it is to contradict everyone else’s opinions? There’s no magic formula to parenting, and you should be very cautious listening to anyone who tells you there is one. There’s no magic formula, but there are principles, things that are true no matter what. If you understand those principles then, since we are made in the image of an infinitely creative God, there are an infinite amount of ways you can teach your children those principles, reflecting your unique skills and your unique family. This session will give you the foundation to build your own parenting plan, one that will allow you to adjust the formula as much as necessary.

Jonathan worked for nine years as a Director of Admissions for a private liberal arts college and has since worked in non-traditional higher education for over a decade.
