• Highly recommend this to everyone–so much insight and great information regarding addiction and the heart journey for all those touched by addiction.

• Every parent should hear this–Steve’s honest assessment of his situation and how God used it for good is very encouraging.

• Steve leads his talk from a position of brokenness and humility. He imports practical wisdom and insights from his life experience.

• Steve sharing his family’s story with such honesty and humility was a true blessing to me. It was very raw and real yet always remembering that God is in control if we will only trust Him to help us in such a great time of need. The information on how to parent in such a way as to hopefully prevent our children from going down this path of addiction was extremely helpful.

• This seminar helped me by giving me insight for my son, and Steve’s personal examples made it so relatable. Thank you for sharing from your heart.

• We came wanting to help our child but quickly realized we needed help as well. Our lives needed to change so we could, in turn, help our child. Thank you.

• It would be a helpful seminar for a parent in any stage of their children’s lives. I appreciated the challenge, the encouragement, and the practical help.

• I have been convicted about my own parenting and lack of telling and showing my sons my reliance on God and His mercy in my own life. I want them to see Him as a source of help with life’s problems and I want to model that better for them. Thank you for pointing out that truth! I admire and applaud your vulnerability.

• Loved the orientation toward grace and the personal stories related to the material. Thank you for caring enough to share your story to help others.

• Excellent specific material. Love the focus on the positives that prevent and build the life we would want. Loved the willingness to share your heart–was touched by your tears. Loved the honesty, and the material that showed value of the difficult journey–that God brings gifts to us even there!

• I liked having a packet to follow. I liked hearing about your personal experiences. I liked the encouraging message–I don’t have to be a perfect parent and God is in control no matter what.

• Very helpful information! Please continue to do these seminars–all parents should hear this.

• It was very informative and practical. It gave me a lot to think about and intentional ways to be a better parent.

• Open and honest perspective with focus on the long-term goal of heart change and development of a Godly, grace-driven worldview.

• Loved everything – wish every couple could hear this. It was so practical at every stage.

• I appreciated your vulnerability and humility to share some of the deep, hard places your family has been and how God’s grace has met you throughout different stages of parenting.

• I really loved the personal testimony drawing from life examples and experiences – especially having two children who are so different and realizing the need for separate parenting styles.

• I learned that I am not perfect and there are so many tools to improve my teaching and examples to my kids.

• The encouragement that even though we are not perfect parents, we still have the capacity to raise good and Godly children.

• We really liked the way you explained things with clarity and real-life experience. Appreciate your efforts and thank you and God for making us part of this parenting seminar.

• It’s ok that we aren’t perfect. It was great to be reminded of just how God parents us.

• This seminar touches on all aspects of parenting and living life to the fullest as a family. The wisdom and insight given encourages parents to study their children and develop and execute a plan!

• It’s so good to learn from a man so willing to be honest and open about the struggles parents can face. The focus is on the children, but I love how he also looked at the parents too.

• Very encouraging to hear practical tips to move myself and, as a result, my kids toward the Gospel from someone who has experienced the struggle himself. Practical but not prescriptive. Well worth the time.

• While not prescriptive, this seminar provided practical ways to get to know and develop a plan for guiding our children. I was encouraged to embrace my calling as a parent, while simultaneously feeling freed from perfection. This gives me increased excitement as I move forward and watch for the ways God is at move in and through our family.
