How to Keep Your Kids from Backsliding
“This book will bring you to your knees and lift you up to serve your children with more intentionality and more humility.” — Tedd Tripp, President, Shepherding the Heart Ministries
Raising a prodigal is every Christian parent’s worst nightmare. Horrifyingly, George Barna contends that over 60 percent of Christian kids will run off to university and “lose their faith.” Some pollsters believe the number is as high as 80 percent.
But there is great news! Your child doesn’t have to become a statistic. Your child can become an adult who loves the Lord the same way you do — but this will likely require a radical parenting reset on your part.
Todd Friel has witnessed to hundreds of university students, most of whom are Bible-belt backsliders. Reset for Parents gets to the heart of the issue and presents a solid, biblical roadmap for parents to avoid the pain and heartache of raising a prodigal.

“Rest for Parents is hard hitting. Theologically sound. Desperately needed.” — Ray Comfort, Living Waters
” ‘ Training youth in the truth’ is more than just a slogan today. It’s more important than ever that we equip our children and teens with biblical truths: we must counteract the huge exodus of young people from our churches. Our research has shown that even in middle school, many of our teens are beginning to doubt the accuracy of God’s Word. And in many of their minds, they are already checking out of church. I praise God that Todd has a passion to help parents and church leaders rescue their youth and have them walk in truth, especially the truth of the gospel. Parents will find Todd’s book to be a powerful Bible-based how-to guide in improving their parenting skills.” — Ken Ham, Author of Already Gone, on why teens and young adults are leaving the church

“A change in behavior that does not stem from a change in heart is not commendable; it is condemnable.” — So begins one of the most penetrating parenting books ever written. The author, Tedd Tripp, builds a solid, Biblical argument for getting to the heart of your child’s behavior with the ultimate goal of your child living to please God, not man. If your child outwardly obeys but inwardly seethes, he is living life like a Pharisee, behavior that was condemned by Jesus.

Pastor Tad Thompson has assembled a biblical approach to effective family discipleship that anyone can understand.
