Overview

This author writes to show how God the Father parents with freedom and effectiveness and a few principles that can transform our own parenting styles to be less encumbered by unnecessary expectations, guilt, and shame. It is a word on parenting that anyone who is curious about cross-cultural principles may need to read to get them thinking in the direction of parenting in a multicultural context. The book is written in semi-formal English even if its intended audience is very general. any parent needing another opinion on parenting should be able to find something to challenge his or her thinking on this issue.

The first chapter of the book looks back to the first family to learn something from that model. The fall of Lucifer, the best of all created beings so far, in a sinless environment with neither temptation nor imperfection. It is also in the manifest presence of god himself. Satan fell in an environment without physical needs. how God handled that fall is instructive to all parents struggling with wayward children.Chapters two through five deal with other principles that help shape children into responsible adults. Chapter six is a conclusion.
