There are many who give parenting advice, and yet nothing quite prepares you for the experience. 

Join us as we look at current parenting advice for fathers and mothers, and compare it to the timeless wisdom of God. 

This 3-week series is intended to help all Cape Townians, whether parents of your own children, aunts or uncles, grannies of grandpas or spiritual parents in this community.


GOING DEEPER

We all know that raising our kids in a godly home takes a lot of intentionality and won’t happen without us taking some proactive steps. We wanted to share some of the things we have found helpful. 

Your children will benefit the most from you placing God at the centre of your life and marriage.  That means that as you follow Jesus, they will benefit.  Please keep taking the next step in your apprenticeship of Jesus, as children do what they see, more than what they hear.
