Every parent wants to know, "How do I discipline my kids?"
"Parents face a crazy paradox," says author Karis Kimmel Murray. "We love our kids exactly as they are, but we also love them too much to let them stay that way!"
Disciplining kids is tough...even on a good day. We just want the 140-character version of what we should do when our kids' behavior scrapes the enamel off our sanity. Here's what God says: "The Lord disciplines the one he loves, " (Hebrews 12: 6).
With humor and down-to-earth practicality, Karis shares stories of trial and triumph straight from the trenches of parenting. From the beginning, Karis gives desperate parents a reliable recipe for peace, boundaries, and effective discipline.
In Grace Based Discipline, learn how to:
- Stay calm, even when you're staring down the barrel of a loaded toddler
- Customize your discipline to your child's unique personality, age, and needs
- Set rules based on God's priorities, not yours
- Apply consequences that really work
Here's the good news: You can do this! Responsive, grace-based parents are just ordinary people who've learned to tap into divine help.
Be at your best...even when your kids are at their worst. Grace Based Discipline will show you how!
Special features include: two "hands-on" projects to help you implement grace-based discipline strategies at home, kids' flag page, and DIY rulebook as PDF attachment.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

As far as advice for parenting, she provides little practical advice. And what was given was more often than not methods that attempt to control behavior (punishment and rewards). She says discipline is the antithesis to punishment, that discipline never wounds or humiliates. To that I fully agree, and therefore, quite confused at her recommendation to spank a young child. One cannot spank without wounds and humiliation. To touch a child in a way that does not make them feel physical pain and shame would look more like an adult just touching a young child’s butt. I don’t like the ‘10-year rule’ where you imagine your child doing a behavior in 10 years to help decide whether this behavior warrants an imposed consequence/punishment or if it’s just developmental. The problem is children under 25 do not have a fully developed brain therefore little impulse control, executive function, or reasoning skills. We must teach, guide, and allow natural consequences, but there is no amount of punishment that is going to make the brain develop faster. At one point, apparently, she thought hitting her dog (her word was ‘swatting’) was a great tool to teach the dog not to rush out the front door. She finally learns that that was not an effective way to teach- glad for the dog. Wish she could have seen that hitting isn’t a good tool for teaching children too though.
Great writer, poor advice
