Hi, I’m Phil Bacalia,
Husband.
Father.
Speaker.
Founder of Potent Parenting.
Former pastor.
Potent Parenting was born from a deep desire to help parents feel less reactive, less defeated, and more confident in the unique role God has given them.
I’ve been married for more than 20 years and am approaching the end of raising my two daughters. Like most parents, I’ve experienced the joy, confusion, pressure, and frustration that comes with trying to parent intentionally in a noisy world.
After serving more than a decade as a pastor and spending years speaking, coaching, and training leaders, I've seen firsthand the challenges families face and the impact healthy parenting can have on a church.
I’m glad you stopped by.
Potent Parenting starts with a biblical foundation and helps parents understand their parenting style, navigate developmental seasons, and parent with greater clarity, confidence, and intentionality.
Whether you're leading a church or raising a family, Potent Parenting can help you take the next step.
