Training in the Way They Should Go

Here’s a partial list of some of my favorite parenting type books over the years.  Bound for Glory is perhaps my all time favorite. Family Driven Faith is one of those rare listings here that I haven't read yet. But it's on my bedstand waiting, and we love the author, and the reviews from those we trust are excellent! Teach Them Diligently, Withhold Not Correction, and Shepherding a Child's Heart were all excellent. The others have all been among my top recommendations in the past, but its been varying lengths of time since I’ve read them. I think I’d still give them a high recommendation, but don’t know for sure if they’d still be in my all-time TOP PICKS, as I don't remember them quite as well. You can read my book review (from when I read it) of Romancing Your Child’s Heart here.

Bound for Glory A call for Christians to glorify God in the home and in the world! Sproul encourages husbands and dads to make the Scriptures known to their wives and children, helping them to grow in godliness; and to take responsibility for the testimony of their household. Includes a discussion of homeschooling and education. 128 pages, softcover from Crossway Books.

Family Driven Faith By Voddie Baucham, Jr. / Good News & Crossway Family Driven Faith equips Christian parents with the tools they need to raise children biblically in a post-Christian, anti-family society. Voddie Baucham, who with his wife has overcome a multi-generational legacy of broken and dysfunctional homes, shows that God has not left us alone in raising godly children. He has given us timeless precepts and principles for multi-generational faithfulness, especially in Deuteronomy 6. God's simple command to Moses to teach the Word diligently to the children of Israel serves as the foundation of Family Driven Faith.

Withhold Not Correction By Bruce Ray / P & R Publishing It is the biblical command in Proverbs 23:13 that the author of this straightforward book holds up as a guide for all parents who experience doubt and indecision in their roles as disciplinarians. The advice in this helpful guide, in contrast with modern psychology, points the way to strict parental discipline. The duties of a Christian parent are clearly outlined and always presented from a scriptural viewpoint. Each of the thirteen chapters in this practical book contains "review" and "response" questions, making it an ideal tool for either group study or personal development.

Shepherding a Child's Heart By Tedd Tripp / Shepherd Press Many parenting books are based on hit-or-miss theories steeped in secular thinking. This one draws from Pastor Tripp's seasoned experience as a father-and from God's Holy Word. Grounded in the Bible's divine plan for parenting, this guide defines your goals as a parent and provides the Scriptural methods for accomplishing them.

Hints on Child Training By H. Clay Trumbull / Great Expectations Co Can parenting advice from 1890 be relevant today? Mary Pride and Gregg Harris sure think so. This little classic of old-fashioned advice still works in today's hustle and bustle world. Trumbull will teach you how to train your child's will and offers sensible advice on countless other issues you face every day.

Romancing Your Child's Heart, Revised By Monte Swan / Multnomah Good parenting isn't only about controlling your kids' behavior-it's about winning their hearts for God. Blending practical advice with real-life child-rearing scenarios, Swan shows how to move beyond parent-child power struggles toward genuine "heart teaching." Discover creative ways to shepherd your kids toward a transforming relationship with Jesus and build their resistance to evil.
