Book excerpt: Is the opposite of mercy justice? Can parents be biblical and merciful when their children misbehave? Is there an answer for parents who want to live the gospel but are grieved by harsh moralism on one side and permissive inaction on the other? Parenting with Mercy examines Jesus' command to his followers to show mercy like God shows mercy. We come to understand the essential nature of mercy in Christian parenting only by searching the Scriptures that teach us how our Heavenly Father is merciful. Parenting with Mercy is appropriate for new parents or seasoned parents alike. It can be used as a six-week group Bible study, for retreats, or simply for personal Bible study.
