What Impatience Does Dr. S.M. Davis Impatience and anger are like sister sins, with one leading quickly to the other. If you develop patience, you are far more likely to not sin by getting angry. The disciples were typically impatient men who didn't want to be bothered with children. The biggest problem parents have in raising children is not the children. It is the parent's own impatience & anger. Impatience produces anger, bitterness, & unforgiveness. It demonstrates a lack of true love. Impatience cuts you off from the blessings of patience, while increasing the number of your trials. This message also gives 7 steps to develop patience. CD: $6.50 DVD $18.00

The 3 Key Elements of Successful Parenting Dr. S.M. Davis There are 3 key elements in successful parenting that work together to help parents produce wise, godly children. These may also be called "The ABC's of Successful Parenting". A - Always win in training the child to obey. The parent, not the child, must be the winner in every contest of wills. A teenage rebel is often the product of a child who was not made to obey. B - Be gentle. Firmness must be balanced with gentleness or it easily becomes harshness. David said "Thy gentleness hath made me great." Greatness in a child is produced by gentleness in his parents. C - Consistently be consistent. Parents must not "start and stop." They must stand together so that children know it is not possible to "pit one against the other." CD: $6.50 DVD $18.00

HOW TO PARENT AS A TEAM Dr. S.M. Davis In Proverbs 6 God chose the analogy of a lamp and it's light to picture how a father and mother are to function as a team in parenting. Just as the wick could not function without the lamp, nor the lamp function without the wick, so a father and mother are to demonstrate oneness in the teaching and discipline of their children. The commandment of the father is like the government that spells out clearly what is expected of the people. The law of the mother is like a good police officer enforcing the laws of the government on a day by day basis. This message explains the different roles of a father and mother in parenting. It also explains when and how a father needs to step in and deal with a problem. CD: $6.50 DVD $18.00

HOW TO BLESS YOUR CHILDREN AND OTHERS Dr. S.M. Davis One of the most powerful things a parent does for his child is to bless him, and one of the most terrible things any parent does is to curse his child. Biblically speaking, a blessing involved unconditionally and often publicly speaking good words to someone in the Name of the Lord, while properly touching them if possible or appropriate. The words spoken should be words of encouragement, envisioning, multiplication, and fruitfulness. This message not only gives a solid Biblical foundation for understanding the blessing, but also explains how to use Scriptures and songs to give it. Also covered is why the blessing is important, when to give it and what happens when people don't get it. CD: $6.50 DVD $18.00
