Episode Description from the Publisher

What if the goal of your kids’ fighting wasn’t&#160;silence, but&#160;restored hearts? Most parents want the bickering to stop. But what if helping siblings make up after a fight was actually an invitation? An opportunity to show your kids a glimpse of the gospel itself, where broken relationships are made new, and joy is rediscovered on the other side of hard moments. In today’s replay episode, Jim and Lynne Jackson (Co-founders of Connected Families) join host Stacy Bellward for a rich, hope-filled conversation about building the value of restoration in your home. Drawing from Scripture and decades of personal experience, Jim and Lynne paint a beautiful picture of what’s possible when parents shift from&#160;solving&#160;conflict to&#160;restoring&#160;relationships. Key Takeaways: How to develop a value of reconciliation rooted in Christ Why modeling restoration in your own relationships (marriage, friendships, even with your own parents) is the most powerful teacher Practical, lighthearted ways to guide kids through conflict How to prepare your kids outside of conflict Age-appropriate ways to celebrate restored hearts  Our Episode Sponsor Today’s episode is brought to you by David Richter, owner of SimpleCFO and author of&#160;Profit First for Real Estate Investing.
