Most parents misguidedly prioritize behavior. Why and how to instill character.
Character influences decisions. It's evidenced in our speech, actions, and attitudes. It's about who we are and what we do. The world competes for the hearts of our kids--and we see its negative impact in their pride, laziness, and entitlement.
We want to see our children grow in Jesus, to evidence humility, gratitude, and respect--for others and themselves. We want our kids to be brave, compassionate, and joyful. We don't want our kids to flounder through life. We want them to flourish and live into their God-given designs and callings. Dr. Kathy Koch answers essential questions:

• What is character and why does it matter?
• Why is there a crisis of character?
• What are the challenges in developing character?
• How can we teach or improve character?

Koch provides an invaluable resource for shepherding children in godly character.
