Episode Notes: 

First 5 Principles

1. Calling - Principle: Nothing is more important in your life than being one of God’s tools to form a human soul.  The Why. 

2. Grace - Principle: God never calls you to a task without giving you what you need to do it. He never sends you without going with you. The How.  

  •     Lelek Quote “God’s grace is more committed to their transformation  and good than we will ever be.” 

3. Law - Principle: Your children need God’s law, but you cannot ask the law to do what only grace can accomplish. 

4. Inability - Principle: Recognize what you are unable to do is essential to good parenting. 

5. Identity - Principle: If you are not resting as a parent in your identity in Christ, you will look for identity in your children.
