Publisher's summary

There’s no such thing as the perfect parent...or is there?

Raising children is hard, and it’s only getting harder. And while there have never been more resources available, many parenting books offer wildly differing theories on how to be a good parent. In today’s volatile world, many fathers and mothers may find themselves wondering, “Where’s the instruction manual?” As it turns out, the answer may be closer than you think.

In The Perfect Parent, pastor and theologian Dr. Doug Ley outlines Five biblical principles for effective parenting, taken directly from God’s word. These guidelines have been handed down directly from the one and only perfect parent, God, our heavenly father, and include time-tested strategies such as creating a good environment, giving your children responsibility, and setting boundaries - all of which are demonstrated in God’s word. With the help of real-life examples, and candid anecdotes and reflections from the Leys' four adult children, one will see parenting being fleshed out in real life.

It’s time to stop parenting the world’s way and start following The Perfect Parent.

A valuable perspective

This book is so valuable and offers such a great perspective in parenting after God‘s word and modeling after God’s parenting of us. Such a gem full of wisdom. A valuable tool to add to you parenting toolbox! As a mother of 5 kids 8 and under, the truths shared in this book were encouraging to me and gave me great applicable tools to use right away in even this stage of parenting little ones with great tools to use in the future as well as they grow. Thank you Dr. Doug for sharing so much wisdom with us!

Very informative!

As a parent, I find myself struggling from time to time looking for the correct solutions. God, and the Bible have the solutions. I am grateful how Dr. Doug had his children give their input at the end of each chapter, it solidified the fact these principals work.
