Loving Our Kids on Purpose shows you how to plant in your children the principles of the Kingdom of God and a heart for the Lord. The easily implemented plan gives you the tools to raise your children in the joy and fullness of the Lord Jesus.
Rather than traditional approaches, this book teaches parents how to train children to manage their freedoms and protect their important heart-to-heart relationships.
"…Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom" (2 Corinthians 3:17 NIV).
Children were designed with the core need of freedom. To deny this or live ignorant of it eventually destroys the trust connection between parent and child.
"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love" (1 John 4:18 NKJV).
Loving Our Kids on Purpose introduces paradigms, perceptions, skills, and ideas that help parents reduce fear by eliminating the tool of punishment and strengthening the hearts of their children to fulfill their destiny.
"His discernment gives him access to root issues that have become obstacles to relational peace and blessing, while his wisdom enables him to be a 'builder of families' and an 'architect of relationships.' I heartily recommend Danny and all his materials to help bring about God’s best for your life."
—Bill Johnson, Senior Leader, Bethel Church, Redding, California
"With the profoundly Biblical theme of child rearing majoring on the issues and connections of the heart, Danny presents a challenging example of how the Kingdom of God is the Kingdom of right relationships. Ultimately, Danny demonstrates convincingly that we parents are responsible for building and nurturing home environments of love, respect, honor, and liberty, unsoiled by fear, control, perfectionism, and overreaction to mistakes."
—André Van Mol, MD, Family Physician
