Description

"Training toddlers isn't about performance. It’s about teaching them the gospel."

In today's episode of the Legacy Parenting Podcast, Lori Lane invites parents to rethink their approach to raising little ones. Instead of focusing on behavior charts, public praise, or achievement milestones, she reminds us that biblical parenting is about shepherding hearts and discipling children toward Christ.

Drawing on decades of personal and professional experience, Lori contrasts cultural trends with timeless scriptural truths. She shares practical ways to infuse the gospel into the everyday moments of toddlerhood, through prayer, worship music, daily conversations, and Scripture memory.

Whether you're navigating tantrums, bedtime battles, or the busy toddler years, this episode will equip and encourage you to raise children who know their worth as image-bearers of God.
