As parents of three beautiful daughters we know and understand how difficult parenting can be.  If you are like us you’ve read many great books, asked for sound advice from a  trusted friend and perhaps even shed a few tears!

We count it a privilege to share our hearts about a Parenting Ministry at High Point Baptist Church called Vertical Parenting. We are very excited about the opportunity to lead this ministry. First and foremost, we are excited because we need it for ourselves to effectively accomplish the challenging but rewarding task that God has assigned to us.

Ephesians 6:4 says, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.” God’s Word makes it clear that it is the responsibility of parents to disciple their children. We feel so strongly about this charge that we have made it the mission of Vertical Parenting.

Our mission statement is “To Ignite a Passion in Parents to Take the Lead in the Spiritual Training of Their Children.”

It is our prayer that this ministry will provide instruction and encouragement for parents to do just that. Some other things that you will learn are as follows:

• How to Appeal To Your Childs Conscience
• How to Raise a Moral Child
• How to Discipline with Encouragement
• How to Discipline with Consequences
• How to Build a Healthy Family
• How to Successfully handle sibling conflict, temper tantrums, and the three sister sins: lying, cheating and stealing.
• How to Instill the virtue of personal self-control and personal responsibility.

While teaching your child

• Respect for Authority and Parents
• Principles of Obedience

On October 14th at 6:00pm we will be kicking off the first year of Vertical Parenting with a 17- week course called Growing Kid’s God’s Way by Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo. It will be held at High Point Baptist Church and each class should last around 2.5 hours. Each parent will be required to purchase a student workbook at $20 each. Childcare will be provided.

It is our aim that Vertical Parenting will not only be a place to learn but also a place to share your struggles, find support, make friends and join with other like minded parents in this awesome responsibility that God has given us in training our children.
