What We Do

Parenting by Design is a nondenominational, faith-based ministry that offers live and pre-recorded parenting seminars, biblical resources on parenting, and online guidance to parents from all walks of life.

Our strategy includes examining the parent’s current goals and methods, and comparing those to the goals and methods of the Perfect Parent, God Himself.

We also look at how kids really learn – through experience, example and empathetic self-exploration.

Those principles are effectively applied to the various stages of child development so that parents can better understand some of the reasons for their child’s behavior at different life stages. In addition, our seminars, skills courses, materials, and online resources have many practical tips on choices and consequences to help parents adjust their parenting styles so that they are more likely to raise godly kids who make good choices in life.

PBD has created a number of different channels to communicate the parenting principles described and modeled by God in the Bible to parents of children of all ages, including live classes, DVD and CD series, books, topical CD’s and downloadable audios, newsletters, daily devotionals, etc. These are distributed around the world to parents in need. When the parent cannot afford to pay the suggested donation, the resources are provided for free.

Small group facilitators have been trained and are conducting classes using the DVD series in cities from Florida to Alaska. PBD has provided materials for free to groups serving underprivileged participants.

PBD continues to look for new and innovative ways to communicate God’s parenting truth to parents around the globe, including downloads, web-­based online learning, and others.
