About this ebook

Parenting is more OJT (on the job training), since children are different, and so are parents. New parents tend to use the same rules, and repeat the same patterns (good or bad), in raising ‘kids.’ This is not always the case though, especially when coming from an abusive home. Sometimes you find a shift to the extreme where there is little correction and too much permissiveness. EXTREMES NEED TO BE AVOIDED and ‘balance’ needs to be found in “Raising ‘Kids’ Right.”

Parenting can be frustrating at best, and challenges the best of parents, as children go through the different stages of growing up. Frustration causes us to lose sight of the ‘end game,’ and we read book after book, go to counselor after counselor, looking for help, only to be more discouraged by the feelings of being out of control. “YouTube,” is replete with funny (?) videos of children bossing and disrespecting their parents, when in reality, it is truly SAD!

“How to Raise ‘Kids’ Right,” presents a down to earth, Bible-based, practical, workable, and BALANCED plan to raise children. It is a breath of fresh air and will be a blessing to all who read and put the principles into practice consistently. You can rest assured that these principles will result in a home where you as a parent feel more in control, and children are happier. You will still have challenges, but the generational gap doesn’t have to get bigger by the day.

Times have changed, schools and government are becoming more intrusive... but the principles on “How to Raise ‘Kids’ Right,” have stood the test of time, and will bless you and your family.

The author’s unique way of communicating and reaching out through the ‘printed page’ as he shares his own experiences growing up as well as experiences shared in raising us ‘kids,’ will bring a ‘light at the end of the tunnel,’ as you strive to “Raise (your) ‘Kids’ Right.”

Jack Exum

Redeemed and added to the body of Christ, May 31, 1959 at Southside Church of Christ, Beaumont, Texas. Graduated from Preston Road School of Preaching, Dallas, Texas, 1971. I ministered to congregations in Georgia, Saskatchewan, Canada, Indiana, Ukraine, and Florida. After the passing of my brother Robert Exum January 25,2016, my wife and I moved to begin work with the West Keene Church of CHrist in Keene, New Hampshire. I am a committed Christian, happily married to my wife Lauw Liang (Wiwik), from Indonesia. Together, we seek only to grow, and serve together in His grace, so freely given in Jesus. (Mailing address: 69 Blossom Street, Keene, NH., 03431.) Purpose and Philosophy statements: * To reach out to and encourage the body of Christ. Not only by publishing books by dad (Jack Exum), and eventually my own, but also dad's and my own studies on www.jackexum.com. I strive for BALANCE, avoiding EXTREMES, LEGALISM and LABELS which have contributed to division and sectarianism in the church. Growing in faith, hope, and love, unity of the Spirit in the bonds of peace, and being true to the Gospel of Christ, is 'where we stand.' My prayer is that we grow in grace, and learn to accept each other, being patient with those who question, or differ, while being 'Heaven bound' together. * To reach the lost. This is the mission of Jesus. Everyone deserves the privilege to hear about Jesus at least once. There is ONE God, and he loves you INCREDIBLY, There is ONE Savior, who gave His all that we might belong to Him forever, and ONE faith given to be shared in the power of His Spirit. There is ONE body to which all believers are added (Acts 2:38-47). That body has no official name in the New Testament but has several designations which describe relationship, with God, Christ, and each other. * To hold to restoration principles: 1. “No Creed but Christ.” (Written creeds, and traditions are not authoritative). 2. “Where the Scriptures speak, we speak; where the Scriptures are silent, we are silent.” 3. “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, love.” 4. “We are not the only Christians, but we are Christians only.” Allow the Lord to deal with the 'weeds.' * We understand what the Bible teaches about being saved. One "must be born of water and the Spirit" (John 3:3-5). For more on this read Acts 2. However, now everyone who obeys the gospel of grace will be found in a congregation with the 'acceptable name.' God knows all that are His. Whoever does what early Christians did to be saved, is my brother and sister in Christ. I let God do the judging, I have 'my plate full,' working on my own sinfulness, and growing in grace, while encouraging others to do the same. Grow in grace! Heaven bound!
