About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of spiritual and emotional transformation in parenting, featuring insights from Kerry Hasenbalg.
Think about the importance of spiritual and emotional transformation rather than perfection in parenting. What would it look like and where do you start? Danny and Rebecca speak with Kerry Hasenbalg about submitting to God's plan and dealing with prolonged struggles and emotional pain in parenting (and in life). At the end of this show, you'll understand how to surrender broken pieces to God, and the impact of spiritual practices such as asking, remembering, and trusting. We also take a question from a listener on how to handle situations when one spouse is not spiritually leading.
