20. Why Forcing Peace Doesn’t Work—and How Christian Parents Can Finally Find Real Joy and Clarity
Manage episode 495675971 series 3666236
Have you ever tried to push your way into peace—only to find yourself right back in worry and frustration a few days later?
In this episode, we’re diving deep into what I call the Gold Zone—the emotional and spiritual space where God’s love, clarity, and confidence guide your parenting.
When we parent from this place, our energy changes—and our struggling child feels it. I’ll walk you through the difference between parenting from Red Zone emotions like fear and control, and Gold Zone emotions like peace, love, inspiration, and understanding—and why skipping straight from stress to “trying to be happy” rarely works.
You’ll also hear a powerful story of a Christian mom whose heartbreak over her son’s choices unintentionally closed the door to reconnection, and how you can avoid the same.
We’ll explore how real transformation happens not through forcing change, but by surrendering to Christ’s enabling power.
If you’re longing for clarity, deeper love, and true connection with your older child, this episode will show you how to invite miracles into your home by parenting from the Gold Zone.
And if you’re ready to go deeper, I’ll tell you how we can work together to get there—one powerful shift at a time.
