A Biblical Critique of the Gentle Parenting Movement

Aug 30, 2026    Drew Hacker

This class examines the modern gentle parenting movement and contrasts its core beliefs with Scripture’s teaching on authority, discipline, and the nature of children. We’ll explore how gentle parenting reshapes concepts like truth, harm, and human behavior, and why its therapeutic worldview cannot produce the outcomes God commands. Using the Bible, parents will see why Scripture’s model leads to righteousness, wisdom, and true shepherding and love not just emotional connection.
