I’d like to thank Glory Holzworth for her excellent article on Christly discipline of children in the September 30, 2013, Sentinel [“God’s children—responsive, not rebellious”]. Discipline seems to be such a touchy subject for many parents. Yet I’ve seen consistently over the years that the families in which discipline is most compassionately (but firmly) taught and most lovingly (but consistently) enforced are the families in which children grow up most peaceful and productive and self-disciplined.

Thank you for the clear, biblical guidance this article gives for approaching child-rearing with the Christ, instead of with human will.
