  • "Your actions may speak louder than words—let your love for Jesus be the loudest message your children hear." – Rhonda Stoppe. Three women of Christ on a mission, Dr. Michelle Watson Canfield, Rhonda Stoppe, and Lee Ann Mancini, have joined together to share empowering Godly advice, information, and encouragement for everyone who is raising the next generation of warriors for Christ. Dr. Michelle Watson Canfield is a national speaker, author, podcaster, and a licensed professional counselor of 27 years. Rhonda Stoppe is a best-selling author, speaker, and podcaster who has helped countless women build “no regrets lives”! During this episode, all three ladies dive into the concept of the parenting toolbox, sharing invaluable tools and cherished experiences that can strengthen your journey as a Christian parent. Key Takeaways: Rhonda’s toolbox- love God with all your being: Rhonda shares how the cornerstone of her parenting toolbox is to love God with every fiber of one's being. She reflects on how her personal journey to deepen her love for Christ—through daily scripture reading and fervent prayer—became the most impactful way to draw her children and grandchildren closer to Jesus. Her story is a testament to the transformative power of a genuine, fervent faith. Michelle’s toolbox- authenticity and sincere faith: Michelle shares heartfelt narratives about her experiences as a grandma and step-grandma. She emphasizes that the greatest tool in any Christian parent's arsenal is authenticity. She recounts instances where her authentic faith spoke louder than words, teaching her grandchildren the essence of true Christian living. Her reflections on 2nd Timothy 1 highlight the enduring influence of a sincere, unmasked faith. Oreo cookie and yes-no sandwich communication: Michelle unveils the Oreo cookie communication technique—an ingenious way to couch constructive criticism between layers of positive reinforcement. Meanwhile, Lee Ann introduces the yes-no sandwich, a method designed to assure children’s desires are acknowledged, even if they can't be immediately fulfilled. Both techniques aim to foster a nurturing and positive family environment. Living simply and loving deeply: Rhonda captivates listeners with the story of her transition from a city dweller to life on a debt-free ranch. She describes the rustic charm and the significant sacrifices made to follow her husband's dream.
