5–Minute Parenting: Tips to Help You Raise Competent, Godly Kids.

Welcome to “5-Minute Parenting: Tips to Help You Raise Competent, Godly Kids.” I’m your host, Sandra Kay Chambers. I’m a wife, mother, children’s author and former teacher with a Masters Degree in Learning Disabilities. In this podcast, I will be sharing parenting tips from both a practical point of view and a biblical worldview. As parents we are our child’s first and foremost teacher, supporter and encourager.
