Raising Kids with a Faith-Focused Family: Strategies for Instilling Godliness in Your Sons and Daughters

Kate Edmonds: This book has hit me hard as a Mom. Every chapter makes you think about your relationship with your significant other and how you are raising your children. Would be a great book to read in church book clubs, young adult groups, couples dating or a good gift for new couples. The Author hits you in the heart and the mind. I now listen to his podcasts on IHeart radio.

Amazon Customer: Voddie does a great job using the Word of God to point us back to His design for family and changing our culture toward faith. I will be using what I learned from this book to point me back to God’s word and strengthen my family ministry.

JRM: Listen up, men! You wanna learn how to lead your family? Do you want a wake up call? God used this book to show me how to better lead my children and my wife; how to disciple and evangelize them; how to be the husband, father, and leader God called me to be. This was a very humbling read... but it was SO worth it as it has completely changed the way I lead my family. I am now finally leading my family in a way that honors and glorifies God. Pick this up, it’s a life changer.

BMama: As a mom of two young boys, this book changed how I approach parenting, specifically being way more intentional with sharing the truths of scripture with my children. I even purchased the catechism books from founders ministries that he recommends to start catechizing my children (because I just learned that catechism isn’t just for Catholics!) I finished the book in a week and then my husband read it, and then I’ve recommended it to a ton of friends also! Dr. Baucham writes in a way that is incredibly informative, but at the same time very relatable.

Kent Wyngaard: This is such a clear and concise description of how to raise Godly and biblical children. Voddie Baucham opens many cans of worms in this biblically accurate and theologically correct resource on equipping your children to stand firm in the dark world we are living in. Lots of shocking statistics and studies available in this book. As many have said in this book, I truly wish that my parents shared these things with me when I was a kid. But now that I’ve been taken through the Scriptures in this book, I can rest assured that I will be a Godly husband to wife and a Godly father to my kids. Highly recommended book

Jake Bennett: Regardless of whether or not the Lord wants me to have kids or not or deems me fit. This book by Voddie Baucham Jr is a must read. It’s not an easy read but encouraging. Recommend very highly.

Robert Pond: We need to think through again how we're parenting. Bauchman is onto something but one must read this book understanding that the author has strong convictions that may not apply to all readers... just read through and spit out the bones as you go... it's worth the uncomfortable read.

Peter: Voddie Baucham legt den Finger auf eine Wunde, die viele christliche Eltern schmerzt: Junge Menschen verlassen bei ihrem Start ins Leben mit dem Elternhaus auch den christlichen Glauben, um in der säkulären Welt selbstbestimmt leben zu können. Damit lassen sie die christlichen Werte ihrer Eltern hinter sich und einen Gott der ihr Wegbegleiter, Helfer und Erlöser sein will.
Baucham sieht als einer der Gründe das elterliche Verhalten im alltäglichen Familienleben. Wir haben es uns oft abgewöhnt, unseren Kindern selbst den Glauben nahe zu bringen und vertrauen auf die Kompetenz und Überzeugungsfähigkeit der Kirchengemeinden, Sonntagsschulen, Konfirmationsunterricht, christlicher Pfadfinder oder ähnlicher Strukturen. Die Beschäftigung mit Gottes Wort in der Familie macht nur noch einen geringen Prozentsatz im Tagesablauf aus, der von Schule, Verein und Medien (Fernsehen, Radio, Internet etc.) dominiert wird.
Das Buch verurteilt keine dieser Aktivitäten, will aber ein Plädoyer dafür halten, den christlichen Glauben zurück in die Familien zu holen und nicht mehr an die Kirchengemeinde zu outsourcen. Baucham sieht die Kirchengemeinden dabei in unterstützender...
