Parenting Seminar: i-Parent
The i-Parent Series is designed to inspire and equip today’s parent in raising healthy and balanced children who will make a positive impact on their world. In spite of all the challenges facing you, we will passionately guide you as you format the next generation—your most valued possession.
Drenched with hard-hitting and timeless truths and laced with real life instances of both our failures and successes, this series will direct parents on how to really impact their kids in our busy, media-filled, sex-saturated culture. Get ready to be encouraged as we together face your parenting issues head-on!
Communities, schools—public and private—and churches have held anywhere from 2 – 8 sessions selecting from the various critical topics listed below. Note: the sessions can be presented with a faith-based focus or not.
Feel free to discuss with us how to best utilize the i-Parent sessions. Topics can be mixed and matched as to your perceived needs and can be presented over a weekend, in a 1-day format, weekly or monthly. Plan on allowing 90 minutes per session. Contact us to discuss this further.
