Good Enough Parent: Simple Biblical Tips For Imperfect Parents Raising Real Kids (Good Enough Christianity)

Parenting was never meant to be perfect—but many Christian parents feel like it should be.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re failing your kids… or disappointing God… you’re not alone.

Good Enough Parent is a gospel-centered, deeply practical guide for weary Christian parents raising teens and tweens in a complicated world. Blending biblical truth, neuroscience, and real-life experience, Dr. Bill Senyard shows why the goal isn’t to try harder or become a perfect parent—but to depend more deeply on Jesus.
Inside, you’ll discover:

• Why getting it right about 30% of the time is actually enough
• What’s really happening inside your child’s brain (and yours)
• How guilt, shame, and fear quietly shape your parenting
• Why striving to be “more like Jesus” can actually backfire
• Simple, daily ways to experience God’s love—and parent from it

This isn’t another parenting formula.

It’s an invitation to breathe…
to let go of pressure…
and to trust that God is at work in you and your child—even on your worst days.

Because the truth is:
Only God is the perfect Parent.
And that’s very good news.
