I reviewed Child Training Boot Camp: A Thirty-Day Bible Study by Pam Forster of Doorposts.
I got out all my Bible study tools: Bible, journal, apps, and websites!
I love how intellectually stimulating and comprehensive this study is, but it doesn’t take an excessively long time for each lesson.
The study was great for me as a parent to examine myself as well as to train my children!
This study reinforced my beliefs in relationship, consistency, and for ME having a good attitude.
I know I need to take time with God in order to be an effective parent. With distractions, travel, homeschooling, and housework, sometimes it gets pushed to the back burner. I try to make time to study Bible, pray, and journal each day. I don’t feel guilty anymore that it’s not at 5 AM with a quiet house. I fit it in whenever I can, usually in the afternoons when the kids have their free playtime.
I also love the little section to include the children in prayer, Scripture memorization, and story-telling.
I took notes in my prayer journal, reviewing topical verses and how they apply to parenting:
This study will help parents:
- Find time for meaningful Bible study in the midst of a busy schedule
- Be more confident and proactive in child-training
- Find guidance in God’s Word for parenting challenges
