Is Spanking Biblical? Here's What Scripture Says About Discipline

Should Christian parents spank their children? What does the Bible actually teach about discipline?

In this episode, we explore one of the most debated topics in Christian parenting by examining what Scripture says about discipline, correction, and raising children in the Lord. Is biblical discipline only about punishment, or is it ultimately about discipleship and training a child's heart?

We discuss key passages from Proverbs, the meaning of the "rod of discipline," and why God's design for parenting emphasizes both loving correction and intentional instruction. We also share personal experiences from raising our five children, including lessons we've learned, mistakes we've made, and how following God's Word transformed our approach to parenting.

Whether you're a new parent, raising teenagers, or simply seeking a biblical perspective on family life, this conversation will encourage you to look beyond cultural opinions and return to the authority of Scripture.
