Kids Are People Too
This book was conceived as a vehicle to pass on family traditions and Biblical principles to our children. It evolved into something that may be helpful to youth and young adults as they prepare to engage in the high adventure of parenting. Most of the stories and examples come from experiences in the Cherry family, but the Biblical principles come straight from Scripture. No other parenting or psychology books were used as references in this book. While there may be a place for Christian psychology and Christian self-help resources in our society, the Bible contains the truths for successful parenting. His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. After all, the Creator of the universe knows us better than we know ourselves. Obedience, consistency, and sacrifice are always the hard parts. Yvonne and I have made mistakes, and there were times when we took our eyes off the guiding truths of Scripture. Thank God that He is able to make all grace abound to us. He has forgiven our sins by His grace, He has compensated for our weaknesses by His grace, and He has graced us with three beautiful children who are a crown to their aging parents and who follow after God.
