Partnering With You As We Parent Our Children
Welcome to our Parenting Together event page. We strive to bring in excellent local and national speakers each year to speak on a variety of parenting topics. Our goal is to supplement the already wonderful resources that you hopefully have available through your local churches. Our Parenting Together events are free and open to the public. So mark your calendars - we look forward to seeing you there!

Dr. Jackie Perry
Stories. We love them! Our kids love them! And believe it or not, we need them to make sense of our lives. Because we have a 'narrative mind', we actually rely on stories to help us navigate our lives, especially the roles we play. But, how do stories relate to the way we navigate parenthood? How do we live into this very long, wonderful and yet also challenging story in a way that is honest yet helpful, practical yet powerful?
