Jeannie Cunnion on living a grace filled life, parenting, and being set free.

I'm with my friend, Jeannie Cunnion today talking about parenting, living a grace-filled life, and what it means to live set free

 

In this episode we discuss:

1. Parenting from a place of surrender

2.  God’s grace

3. The most powerful tool in a parent’s toolbox.

 

Favorite quotes:

1. The beauty of praying for them [our kids] is that you get to watch God act and move in ways that you couldn’t orchestrate on your best days.

2. It’s not like the Lord set me free in that and now I’m just free and I never wrestle with my freedom or the enemy never tries to put the chains back on me. It is a daily surrender, it is a daily reminder, it is a daily going back to the truth to be reminded of the freedom that is already mine, but I am so quick not to walk in.

3. The depths of God’s grace. It really this bottomless well…You never ever get to the bottom of the well of God’s grace. You’re never too far gone. You’ve never blown it too much.

4. Surrender is not giving up, but it’s giving over.

5. The beauty of praying for them [our kids] is that you get to watch God act and move in ways that you couldn’t orchestrate on your best days.
