Why Children Matter (Douglas Wilson)
$12.59$13.95
In this book on childrearing, Douglas Wilson points out that we have a Father who delights in us and makes it easy for us to love and obey him. If that is the kind of Father we have, shouldn’t we earthly parents do the same? Wilson explains how parents should not just try to get their kids to obey a set of rules or to make their house so fun that following the rules is always easy. Instead, he calls for parents to instill in their kids a love for God and His standards that will serve them well all their days.

Your Child’s Profession of Faith (Dennis Gundersen)
$10.36Dennis Gundersen’s unique treatment of this rarely addressed subject can make the difference between parents who participate in their child’s deception and presumption, or parents who truly guide him to eternal life. If a small child tells us he thinks he’s saved, do we take his words at face value? How do we test his profession, especially without seeming to doubt the child and discourage him? Many have found this book the most useful guide ever written on the topic.

Instructing a Child’s Heart (Tedd & Margy Tripp)
$12.99From interaction with their peers to the instruction and correction that they receive at home, Children interpret their experience from a worldview that seeks to answer their fundamental questions: Who am I? What do I exist for? Where can I find joy? We need to provide our children with a consistent, persuasive, biblical framework for understanding the world God has made and their place in it.Instructing a Child’s Heart is the essential sequel to Shepherding a Child’s Heart. The instruction that you provide for them not only informs their mind; it is directed to persuading their hearts of the wisdom and truthfulness of God’s ways. Impress truth on the hearts of your children, not to control or manage them, but to point them to the greatest joy and happiness that they can experience—delighting in God and the goodness of his ways.$15.99 -
Hints on Child Training (H. Clay Trumbull)
$8.99“What Trumbull calls ‘hints’ are, in fact, precious jewels…I have been greatly helped by this wonderful book”, says Gregg Harris. A book with much wisdom to pass on to Christian parents regarding our attitudes towards our children and on how to bring willing obedience forth from them rather than forcing it from them. The author was Elisabeth Elliot’s grandfather.
Fortified with common sense and Biblical wisdom, Trumbull’s straightforward guide has established its place as a classic work in the field of child rearing. Written over 100 years ago, it is completely free of modernist influence. After all, Freud had not yet developed his theories of the subconscious; Pavlov and Skinner had not yet introduced to educators their animal-training techniques known as behaviorism; Dewey’s Religious (i.e. Secular) Humanism had not overtaken the public schools; and Dr. Benjamin Spock had not published his dangerous book on child training.
