DESCRIPTION:
Danny Silk is the Family Life Pastor at Bethel Church in Redding, CA. He is also the president of Loving On Purpose, a non-profit dedicated to the strengthening of families and community at local, national and international levels.
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. You CAN raise good kids! Loving Our Kids on Purpose combines the principles of the Kingdom of God and revival to form a powerful strategy for parents. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17). Rather than the traditional approaches that train children to learn to accept being controlled by well-meaning parents and adults, this book teaches parents how to train children to manage their freedoms and protect their important heart-to-heart relationships. To deny this or live ignorant of it eventually destroys the trust connection between parent and child. Children were designed with the core need of freedom. 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 will help parents reduce fear by eliminating the tool of punishment and strengthening the core character of their children by empowering their self-control and value for their relationship with their parents.
But the truth is, in the circle I run in, he is without equal. Our team has been encouraging him to write this book for a long time, as his timeless wisdom needs to be imparted to the masses. BUT READER BEWARE: Danny s insights often smash old religious mindsets and free people from the bondage of spiritual captivity.You will find that you are laughing and crying yourself into new relational paradigms as you willingly walk head first into his sword. I heartily recommend Danny and all his materials to help bring about God s best for your life. ---Kris Vallotton, Senior Associate Pastor of . He has the most amazing ability to understand the root causes of social and behavior issues of anyone I have ever encounter in my thirty years of working with people. His stories will capture your heart, his wisdom will astonish you and his life will change you forever. This book is a must read for everyone,whether you have children or not. ---<
Best Parenting Advice I ever heard and opposite of most of what we've been told! Kim Konrad I thought I had a great relationship with my daughter so I wasn't in a hurry to dive into all things Danny Silk - until I heard him speak at my church. He rewired my thinking. I slowly began to collect his teaching (you can download his Mp3 teachings). I work with teens in crisis and I see bad parenting all the time, but after reading this series I have a much better understanding. Let me sum up Danny's book like thisWe're afraid our kids will make the wrong choice so we either limit their choices to the right one and the other right one or we manipulate them into making the right decision. Then w. "Not a fan. Needs more balance, the book is too overboard with it's methods, read with a grain of salt." according to myopinionnotafan. This Book was not what I expected at all. Also very hard to read I felt like I had to force myself to keep reading.It mostly talks about how you shouldn't control your kids, you shouldn't punish your kids, you shouldn't tell your kids what to do etc. always give them choices about what they want to do and always ask questions never tell them.There were some good points like never react to your children in anger no matter how disrespectful they are being or what kind of fit they are throwing you should respond in love and be the calm in there storm and always remember your words have the power of l. Paradigm-shifting, encouraging, empowering -- HIGHLY recommended Loving Our Kids On Purpose is a seminal work that revealed some things about my parenting that have not been stellar, to phrase it graciously. This great book showed me that I have often parented my daughter from a paradigm based more upon fear than upon a loving heart connection with her. The author's repeated emphasis upon the freedom in which God desires us to live truly "made the light bulb come on" for me. I'm already seeing the fruit in my girl's life, and I'm deeply grateful. It's not hyperbole to describe this work as a life-changing one.Much more could be said, but for the sake of brevity
