3rdF - INTENTIONAL PARENTING Study Group


5-Week Study: 10 Ways to be an Exceptional Parent in a “Quick Fix” World.

I feel like time is running out and I’m not parenting with the urgency I should have. I don’t want to get my kids off to college and then look back and think my intentions were good but my effort was lackluster.

So I need a spark and I found this guide through church and I need some accountability and guys to go all in with me so we can encourage and support one another.

Disclaimer: This book talks about Jesus and uses Bible verses as a foundation but I don’t think it necessarily means you have to hold Christian beliefs to think this is applicable to us as parents in general. This should be open to all Dads from what I can tell!

Proposed Agenda

This is a 5 Week Study starting the first week of November.

  • HOW TO START

    • Each man HCs by buying the book: Amazon Link
