The book Patient Parenting is a collection of 49 articles about the Christian home. Each article looks at parenting as seen through the eyes of a Christian psychologist. While parenting techniques and issues have changed with time, God's Word remains constant. This consistency demonstrates that Scripture has practical application in today's home life. The author speaks to all parents by addressing a wide array of issues including childhood depression, ADHD, potty training, childhood imagination, homework, discipline, and spanking. He also addresses parenting behaviors that affect childhood development such as divorce, arguing, and expressing emotions. The book includes a self-evaluation checklist for parents. Dr. Juern leads readers to recognize that raising children who are healthy depends on solid Christian parenting in the shadow of the cross and a firm foundation built on God's Word.
