Episode 39–The Spirit-Led Parent: Parenting with Faithfulness, Gentleness & Self-Control with James Dowdy

Parenting is challenging, especially as a single parent.

In today's episode, James Dowdy shares about how God walked with him through those early years after the divorce and how the Holy Spirit works within us to transform us into the people we were created to be.  

"The Holy Spirit will get you through anything. The real power is in the Holy Spirit. That's who Christ sent. He said, 'I'm going to send Him to you. He's going to be with you. You can pray to the Father through me but this is the guy that's going to be here.' We have to make use of that. We can't let Satan beat us up when we make mistakes or when we realize we're not perfect. God told us we're not perfect. We're not going to be perfect." James Dowdy
