"In the UK, many would say parenting can't be taught; i comes naturally. In Africa most feel it is the mother's job. If men are really honest, we can be prone to slef-centredness, self-justification and prioritisng work. Like all else in the Christian life, parenting requires us to be intentional. willing to humble ourselves and to do our very best to present ourselvs to God as those approved. He will help us. We parent by the grace of God: his grace both enables us and compensates us for our mistakes." Tony Goodman, author.
