The successful Putting Parenting to Bed course is now even easier to run with this new DVD which features interviews and scenarios, as well as the main talk from presenter Ann Benton. Please note, this DVD is available in NTSC format only.
The course can be three or six sessions and gives parents some simple, common-sense basics for raising children with confidence, based on the age-old, tried & tested wisdom of the Bible. There is a challenge for unbelieving parents to re-evaluate what they think about life which can lead to a real opportunity to share the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Perfect to use as an outreach course in your ...community or toddler groups, as well as with parents in your church.
Ann Benton’s warm and engaging talks offer common-sense guidance on the parenting essentials: communication, discipline and relationship. The first session gently introduces a Biblical view of what child is, and highlights common parenting pitfalls that are easy to relate to. Session Two tackles ‘The big D-word’—discipline, and explores how we can be loving, authoritative parents. The final session discusses how we can build healthy relationships with our children and invites parents to reflect on what values they want to pass on to them.

Ann Benton is a very wise, Christ-loving woman. As a mother herself, she understands the challenges parents face. She gives excellent advice that I found useful for supporting friends with children and in my career as an educator, working with parents and their children. A must have for every Christian parent!

We used this book as research for a parenting seminar, as a result one of the ladies has started a parenting class for her neighbors who are not involved in church, using the 'putting parenting to bed' resource and has been encouraged.

This parenting course is thought provoking, realistic and practical. It is flexible enough for you to tailor to your group in terms of presentation style and the time you have available. We only had 30-40 mins each week with our Toddler Group mums and while more time would obviously be great, those minutes were still really worthwhile.
