Re: Kirk Cameron and Ted Tripp
I am not sure what the point of even saying Tripp is better than Pearl. The essence of both is the same. Punishment puts you right with God. Spanking is the way to TRAIN your child.
So what if there is good stuff in SACH. So what if Tedd Tripp has some good ideas. The Pearls share MANY of the same ideal that we here at GCM do. That does not mean we embrace or promote them in ANY way.
I think if you have a non punitive mindset, are free of the bonds of legalism, and are grounded in grace based and non punitive discipline then SACH or IACH could be a good book to read. It is only good though if you can completely ignore the very bad parts of his book and what he preaches.
