Episode 282 | Is Warning the Same as Threatening?

Episode Description

Do your children obey when you give instructions, or only after you warn them about the consequences? Do you see a difference between warning and threatening?  Would you like to know how to guide your children toward obeying out of love for God rather than a fear of punishment? Join Ginger Hubbard and Alex Cody as they discuss the importance of consistent, calm, and biblical discipline.
