“Believe that God is strong enough to save your children, no matter how you fail.”
Elyse Fitzpatrick, Give Them Grace: Dazzling Your Kids with the Love of Jesus

“Everything that isn't gospel is law. Let us say it again: Everything that isn't gospel is law. Every way we try to make our kids good that isn't rooted in the good news of the life, death, ressurection, and assension of Jesus Christ is damnable, crushing, despair-breeding, Pharisee-producing law. We won't get the results we want from the law. We'll get either shallow self-righteousness or blazing rebellion or both (frequently from the same kid on the same day!). We'll get moralistic kids who are cold and hypocritical and who look down on others (and could easily become Mormons), or you'll get teens who are rebellious and self-indulgent and who can't wait to get out of the house. We have to remember that in the life of our unregenerate children, the law is given for one reason only: to crush their self-confidence and drive them to Christ.”
Elyse Fitzpatrick, Give Them Grace: Dazzling Your Kids with the Love of Jesus

“The one encouragement we can always give our children (and one another) is that God is more powerful than our sin, and He's strong enough to make us want to do the right thing.”
Elyse Fitzpatrick, Give Them Grace: Dazzling Your Kids with the Love of Jesus
