Kharis publishing, 2026

What if the most difficult child in the room is the one who needs your love the most? Powerful Parenting is a step-by-step, faith-centered resource for parents and caregivers who want to create a home where children can flourish, even those who struggle with behavior, trust, or their own sense of worth. Drawing on more than twenty-five years as a special education teacher working with emotionally disturbed and at-risk children, Marsha Grahek offers practical, tested guidance alongside the deeper wisdom of walking as Christ walked toward children the world often labels unreachable. The book shows you how to instill good manners, encourage real dialogue, build a supportive network, and create memorable family experiences while passing down what matters most: love, truthfulness, financial responsibility, personal dignity, respect for others, and fortitude in hardship. It also addresses the hard seasons every family faces: a child's behavioral problems, the impact of separation and divorce, and educational or medical complications, drawn from Marsha's decades in classrooms, treatment centers, and mission fields. You will meet real children, names changed to protect their privacy, transformed not by force or formula but by someone willing to love them without demanding they change first. Whether you are raising a child of your own, teaching in a classroom, or caring for a child affected by trauma, separation, or special needs, Powerful Parenting offers hope grounded in Christ's own example: that unconditional love, patient presence, and consistent prayer can reach even the most guarded heart. Married with four children and five grandchildren, Marsha brings a lifetime of faith, family, and hard-won wisdom to every page. If you are ready to become the parent, teacher, or caregiver a struggling child needs, Powerful Parenting will show you the way, one powerful, prayerful step at a time. What Others Think About This Book: I've known Marsha and her family for four decades. Marsha has a God-given gift of working with children, especially those with "special" needs. This book is filled with real-life stories, with real people, and it's a guide to "real parenting". After reading this book, readers will stop and think about the consequences and effects of how they handle the parenting of their children. Young parents will find "Powerful Parenting" an excellent resource and tool as they navigate child-rearing through the formative years. -Donald Blake, Founder and President, Virginia Christian Alliance About the Author: Marsha J.
