We’re bringing author and speaker Dr. John Cox to Redeemer in April for a parenting conference: Setting Parents Free. Please plan to join us on Friday evening, April 5, and Saturday morning, April 6, for this helpful and fun opportunity! As Dr. Cox says, “Setting Parents Free will be a conference for parents who want to learn how to raise great kids but are also tired of the dry books and seminars full of ‘rules for being a better parent.’” He will help us learn how to teach our kids about love, discipline, resiliency, and spirituality (as well as how to keep tonight’s bath time from becoming another dumpster fire!) He will also guide us in learning how even our failures as parents can be opportunities to give good things to our children. Dr. Cox says, “Your kids don’t need ‘perfect parents,’ they need you!”
There is a $15 admission charge per family to help with conference expenses.
Register and get your ticket here!
