Four Pillars of Raising Healthy Relational Adult Children with Kathy Koch
Restoration Home with Jennifer PepitoShow Notes
Jennifer Pepito is joined by Dr Kathy Koch to talk about raising healthy adult children and staying in relationship with them through trial-and-error parenting, making mistakes, and the four pillars to raise healthy children and the importance of choosing relationship whenever possible. As any parent with more than one teenager knows, parenting — what you know and what you think you know — shifts dramatically as children come of age. So often parents either react to older children without flexibility, humility or grace and wonder why the formulas of the early years aren't working or they simply give up on parenting. Dr. Koch lays out the ways we can choose connection, learn with our children, and continue to gently shepherd them through their teenage years. Episode sponsored by the Peaceful Press!

Welcome to episode 208 with Carl and Laura Lentz, the former pastors of Hillsong New York. Their story made headlines in 2020, but it was the beginning and not the end. The Lentzes' story is an incredible redemption arc of surrender, choosing wholehearted redemption, forgiveness, and returning Jesus to the center, rather than hiding in shame, reaction, or bitterness. In everything we do, Christ is the foundation: for our children, our communities, our lives, and the Kingdom of God. In an era of divorce and choosing personal happiness over the marriage covenant, this episode is an important reminder of healing and discovering the reward of a love that lasts.
