Someday our children will grow up to leave our homes and they’ll have to stand on their own. It’s our job as a parent to make sure that we’ve done all we can to prepare them for what lies ahead. God, the perfect parent, has actually left us with a plan to do this and do it well. It’s called Grace-Based Parenting – treating your children the way God treats his children. Grace-based parenting happens when we apply God’s love to four key areas of our children’s live. We meet their three driving inner needs, we offer them four essential freedoms, we build character into their hearts and we aim them at a future focused upwards and outwards. With passion and humor, award winning author, speaker, and founder of Family Matters, Dr. Tim Kimmel, also known as the “Guru of Grace” will show you how to raise kids who love God, live for Him and make an eternal impact in their world. Based on the Gold Medallion winning book, Grace Based Parenting.

They say that marriages are made in heaven. Unfortunately they have to be lived out here on earth. That’s why we might want to enlist God’s help when it comes to fulfilling our commitments and making the most of the love that convinces us to say “I do”. Not all marriages are hurting, but it’s hard to find one that isn’t hassled because very few couples come to the altar with a clue of what they’re up against. With passion and humor, award winning author, speaker, and founder of Family Matters, Dr. Tim Kimmel, will give you a definition of love that you can take to the bank, even when there’s no “like” in your “love”. With heartwarming wit and uncanny insight, Dr. Kimmel will share specific and intentional ways we can invest in our marriages in order to maintain a calm and confident love in the middle of our crazy lives and be deliberate about loving our spouse the way God loves His bride. Based on the newly released book, The Grace Based Marriage.
