Synopsis


Raising kids and building families is tough these days. We live in a broken society that celebrates sin and minimizes family relationships.

Is it possible for Christian parents in today’s society to raise emotionally healthy kids who love God and are equipped to do God’s will for their lives?

Yes. Emphatically, yes.

God has entrusted you, as a parent, to care for and raise your children for Him, and He has given you the resources you need for the job. Specifically, He has given you His Word to guide and His grace to enable.

That doesn’t mean it will be easy or that it will happen on autopilot. It isn’t, and it won’t. The truths presented in these pages are not parenting hacks—tricks to have well-behaved kids. They are principles studied from God’s Word, tested in the laboratory of the author’s home, and applied to the challenging topics and multifaceted responsibilities today’s parents face.

In these pages, discover what it means to invest in your children and how you can bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Goodreads review by Evan

Chappel presents us with a mixed bag here. At times his book is frustratingly unpractical and other times very practical (advice on paranting teenagers and cultivating healthy electronic/online habits.) This book is written into people from a certain narrow slice of the world that Chappell caters too......more
