It took me 13 years to learn this. I'll show you in 10 minutes.

It took me 13 years of fatherhood to learn this about discipline. I'll show you in 10 minutes.

I've been a dad for 13 years. And for most of those years, I got discipline completely wrong.

With my daughter, I was too harsh—yelling, intimidating, controlling through fear.
With my son, I was too soft—endless chances, empty threats, no follow-through.

Both approaches were failing. And both came from the same place: I was believing lies about what biblical discipline actually looks like.

In this video, I share the 3 lessons that changed everything:
Discipline is TRAINING, not punishment
Anger is usually FEAR in disguise
The goal isn't compliance—it's CHARACTER

Plus 3 Dad Reps you can start TODAY:

Bottom line: Biblical authority is strong hands and a calm heart.
