Triggers Study Guide: Exchanging Parents' Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses

You’ve seen a need for change in your life and you’re ready to embark on the journey away from reactionary, quick-tempered parenting. But the path ahead can seem daunting and lonely without a guide or friend to walk with you. That’s why authors, Amber Lia and Wendy Speake have created this in-depth study guide to accompany their book, Triggers: Exchanging Parents’ Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses.

Perfect for individual reflection or a group study setting, this resource features a come-alongside approach to working through external and internal triggers that fuel your struggle with anger. Mirroring the 31-chapter structure of Triggers, this study guide will provide you with:

• Rich passages of Scripture to meditate on and tuck into your heart for strength.
• Expanded thoughts on each trigger for further teaching and encouragement.
• Questions to spark personal reflection and to help move you toward action.
• Plenty of room to write out your thoughts and work through the chapter questions.
• Additional space for doodling, writing out prayers or action plans, and more!

If you’re seeking real transformation in your parenting and you’re willing to do the work to get there — this study guide will equip, empower, and encourage you along the way!

Amber Lia and Wendy Speake have linked arms to encourage and equip moms and dads who are in desperate need of hope, grace, and practical help for the parenting journey.
