Excellent read for all moms, no matter what age

I love this book and am going to recommend it to other moms in my life. I have been following Crystal online for years. I love the mindset change God has done in her parenting and life in general. And I love how she shares it in this book. I wish I had learned some of these things earlier in life, but It is never too late. I have a 15 and 18 year old. However I found the principles of releasing them into adulthood and saying yes when possible very applicable. And the mindset is giving me more peace as I focus on love and coming alongside my "kids". Thank you Crystal!

Excellent parenting book!

This parenting book is excellent - it gets to the heart of why and how we parents our children. I appreciate her personal story and road to embracing grace and love over performance and rules. Highly recommend for anyone but especially those who come from a background of rules based, performance based, “because I said so” parenting. Great narration and easy to listen to!

Inspiring, teaching, insightful!

I’ve followed Crystal for a very long time through her blog, “Money Saving Mom”, and now on social media. My youngest child is older than her oldest, however I knew I’d want to read this book based on how I’ve perceived her character over the years. “Love Centered Parenting” is a book I am going to immediately read again. I’ve not only downloaded it on Audible, but have purchased a hard copy as well. Crystal’s approach to parenting is one every parent needs to hear regardless of a child’s age, or readers religious affiliation or lack of. Love centered parenting is about loving your kids where they’re at, while setting our expectations aside. It’s about holding your children accountable in a way that lends to not only their growth, but the grown of the parent as well. This book has been eye opening, humbling, and changing to my heart towards my children (22, and 17). Thank you Crystal, for sharing your heart in an inspiring and humbling way.

Don’t allow satan to take over your family, parents you must listen to this !

I was going through a trial and was having problems with my son, he’s 5 and I have a 7month old as well and I spend more of my time with the baby and my 5yr old is crying for attention by acting out and I didn’t notice; after listening to this book WOW I’ve put into action what helped for her and I can say my child has been expressing himself more and I’m leaning in and loving/listening.

Wonderful read!

Easy to follow truly enjoy this book. I loved the truths and prayers and questions.

Good stuff!

You can definitely take away a lot of good nuggets. Appreciate Crystal sharing that it’s NOT always working out exactly how we plan

Great Christian centered parenting book

I really enjoyed listening to the authors point of view on Jesus s Grace and how we can let his love influence the way we parent and point our kids to Christ.

So beautiful

Just what I needed to hear, delivered in a way I could hear it! Thank you Lord and Crystal.

A Parenting Must Have!

Just what I needed in this busy season of parenting 4 littles, 9, 8, 5, and 2. This was such an incredible book I will be listening to it again and recommending it to friends and family. Definitely life changing!

Beautiful book

I recommend this book because the author is someone who demonstrates sincerity and a love of God that is noticeable in her actions and visible on her social media. She is someone to aspire to and who makes a difference with her actions and words. Lean in and love your kids, as she says in her book.
