Next, I related how Gary Chapman’s teachings showed me how to widen my perspective, deepen my understanding; and guide how to best show my love. Without divulging the contents of the book, let me give you five reasons why I was won over by the use of the rod. The rod is for the purpose of rescuing your child’s soul from spiritual death. Proverbs 23:14 says “Punish him with a rod and save his soul from death.” I always tell Gummy that I discipline her because I love her and I want to save her soul. I would love to give more reasons but then you may not buy the book anymore and you would’ve missed out on an exceptional parenting read with great insights on disciplining with love.
