The Struggles of Parenthood and the Hope of the Gospel
Be firm with your kids, but not scary. Be friendly, yet maintain authority. Work hard, but prioritize time at home. Parents are faced with an overwhelming mix of advice. Self-help books, blog posts, and endless tips often leave parents feeling more stressed, discouraged, and fearful.
In Good News for Parents, Adam Griffin offers a refreshing alternative to typical parenting advice. This book reveals how walking by the Spirit can free parents from the anxieties, stress, and self-doubt of parenting. Drawing wisdom from Galatians 5, Griffin demonstrates how each fruit of the Spirit provides the lasting relief they so desperately need. Ultimately, readers will feel more prepared to approach parenting with peace, confidence, and strength, trusting that Jesus is renewing both them and their children day by day.

The absolute last thing that most parents need is more pressure. That’s why I’m so glad that Adam Griffin wrote something different—a book full of grace and relief for parents. I trust his voice to encourage families by helping them see how much their faith can bless them and their God can unburden them.
Good News for Parents offers wise remedies for the inevitable fears parents face. This book is not a list of how-tos but a biblical vision of how God provides the guidance we need. Through a careful explanation of the fruit of the Spirit, enriched with poems and prayers, Adam Griffin helps us relax and trust Christ with the results of our parenting. His message is clear: We are not the center of it all—Jesus is. And that is truly good news for every parent!
There is no shortage of good advice for parents, and Adam Griffin has offered some of the best out there. But in this book we don’t just get something helpful; we receive something better: good news for parents. Good news for faithful parents, good news for failing parents, good news for fatigued parents—good news for us all.
