Description

Parenting is not easy, and sometimes our anger and frustration is projected onto our children in an undesirable way. If you find yourself addressing parental issues with irritability and loss of temper, this book will be a helpful resource. Written by respected authors Israel and Brook Wayne, this couple gives Biblical and practical solutions to gain self-control and add other fruits of the spirit in your life. As the authors share their struggles and show us how to tackle anger with Biblical principles, we gain hope to liberate ourselves from ugly habits. Then when we lead by example, we build healthy relationships with our children that will permit us to raise confident and loving souls for service in God's kingdom.

Publisher's Description of Pitchin' a Fit!

If you are a parent, you have been there. Children do things that test the limits of those of us who admire rationality and common sense. Our innate default in such moments is to respond badly. We all struggle with anger to some extent. It is only through learning what God has to say on the subject of anger, and through appropriating the power of the Holy Spirit, that we can escape the tyranny of our own tendencies and addictions.

If you struggle with habitual anger, there are several things you need to know.

  1. You are not alone. Everyone struggles with this issue to some extent.
  2. It is not okay. Left unchecked it will damage important relationships.
  3. There is hope. There is freedom found in God's Word to help you overcome this habitual sin.

    1. We hope that you will join us on a mission to escape the trap of angry and stressed-out parenting. In this book, we will share with you a biblical view of anger, strategies for breaking life-long habits, and ways that you can build up and encourage your child rather than tear him or her down.
