I Can't Believe You Just Said That!: Biblical Wisdom for Taming Your Child's Tongue

The bestselling author of Don’t Make Me Count to Three! lays out a simple Bible-based plan that shows parents how to help their kids tame their tongues and walk in the transforming power of Christ.Are you ever embarrassed or shocked by what comes out of your child’s mouth? Do you raise your voice threaten and coerce but find yourself frustrated because nothing seems to work?  In I Can’t Believe You Just Said That! Ginger Hubbard provides a practical three-step plan to reach beyond the behaviors of tongue-related struggles—such as lying tattling and whining—to address your child’s heart. After all as Matthew 12:34 tells us “the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.”By moving past the idea that parenting is about rigid rule-setting or behavior management we can set aside ineffective practices such as scolding ignoring the offense or merely administering punishment. Instead we start to see that our children’s outbursts are prime opportunities for the ultimate goal of all parenting: to guide them to the redemptive work of Jesus and his transformational power.
