Book Club Discussion with the Deanes

You’re invited to join Andy & Shannon Deane in a book club discussion at their house Friday, August 26th, 6:30 pm-8:30 pm. Grab your own copy of Habits of the Household by Justin Whitmel Earley, take a month to read it, and then come over to our place for dessert, book discussion, and a time of prayer. Be sure to RSVP so that we know who is coming over. The truth is, Shannon and I don’t always feel like we are winning in parenting, so we decided to read this book together. Before starting, I realized some other parents might feel the same way (I hope), so we thought we’d invite others to join us as we try and grow as parents. 

Book Summary : Discover simple habits and easy-to-implement daily rhythms that will help you find meaning beyond the chaos of family life, creating a home where kids and parents practice how to love God and each other. You long for tender moments with your children–but do you ever find yourself too busy to stop, make eye contact, and say something you really mean? Daily habits are powerful ways to shape the heart–but do you find yourself giving in to screen time just to get through the day? You want to parent with purpose–but do you know how to start? Award-winning author and father of four, Justin Whitmel Earley, understands the tension between how you long to parent and what your daily life actually looks like. In Habits of the Household, Earley gives you the tools you need to create structure–from mealtimes to bedtimes–that free you to parent toddlers, kids, and teens with purpose.
