"A lot of books talk about gospel-centeredness in theory; this book shows you how to apply it to one of life's most important relationships."--J. D. Greear, pastor of Summit Church and author of Gospel

Our purpose in parenting is not merely to raise responsible adults who will be kind people, loving friends, and good citizens. While these are honorable goals, when we focus entirely on fixing our kids' behavior we can miss the most important role a parent has: to show them the love and grace of Christ.

This fully revised edition of Give Them Grace, which includes two new chapters, gives you the gospel foundation to parent from a place of joy, freedom, and peace. This isn't a "how-to" manual; it's a call to remember, speak, and rest in the gospel as you model Jesus to your children.


"It is so encouraging to read a parenting book that points parents to the grace of the cross and shows them how to be instruments of that grace in the lives of their children."--Paul David Tripp, author of New Morning Mercies

"This book is about how we, as parents, must find our strength in God alone, and how our children need to be invited into that same gospel story. It is both humbling and encouraging, challenging and practical."--Rachel Joy Welcher, editor at Fathom magazine and author of Talking Back to Purity Culture
