Description

In this episode, Scott and Whitney sit down with Matt and Ashley Gaymon who are members at our Pelham campus, lead high school student groups, and are parenting teenagers of their own. They share stories of their successes and failures as parents and reflect on how Scripture, community, and the local church have shaped their approach to discipling their children.

Key Points

  • With teenagers, it’s critical to keep them talking so that as parents, we can know what they’re thinking about and have frequent, honest dialogue with them.
  • Parenting is not meant to be done in isolation; depending on biblical community allows parents to get external input and sets an example for their kids.
  • Parents are flawed humans too, and there is no perfect formula for parenting, but it is a skill that can be built with resilience over time.
