Healthy parenting
“The healthy balance is found in the authoritative parent. The parenting style provides high-warmth and high support. Healthy and reasonable boundaries are set for children that are age appropriate. Authoritative parents are very involved, consistent, loving, willing to communicate, and respectful of the child’s point of view. These children learn to be self-controlled, secure and have good self-esteem.”

Men's Breakthrough Devotional: A 42 Day Devotional Experience book cover
Men’s Breakthrough Devotional: A 42 Day Devotional Experience
Dr. Myron Edmonds

I am super excited to receive an autographed copy of the latest book by Dr. MyRon Edmonds, a powerful speaker, mentor, and leader. In Men’s Breakthrough Devotional, Edmonds guides readers through a journey of personal transformation, emphasizing the power of breakthrough. With heartfelt vulnerability, he shares his own story, demonstrating that breakthroughs often emerge from deep struggles.

At a low point in his life, despite his public successes, Edmonds was caught in addiction and despair. His private battles overshadowed his achievements, and his inner turmoil went unaddressed. A poignant question from his daughter jolted him to confront his hidden demons and seek healing. Driven by a mission to help men and anyone in need of community, Edmonds’ book is a beacon of hope and transformation. Available now on Amazon.
