Discussion Questions

7 questions

1.Tripp's conclusion circles back to the theme of grace as the only sufficient resource for the parenting journey. After working through all fourteen principles, how has your understanding of what you need as a parent deepened or changed?

2.He is honest that the vision he has cast is high — perhaps uncomfortably high. How do you hold the high standard of gospel-centered parenting alongside the daily reality of falling short? Where does grace fit in that tension?

3.Tripp closes with encouragement that God's grace is not just the starting point of the Christian life but its daily fuel. Where do you most need to draw on that grace right now in your parenting?
