review 1: Parenting can be a challenge for anyone, but Christian parents face the added dimension of trying to parent according to God’s standards and, ultimately, for His purposes. To aid parents seeking to gain a better “big picture” view of what God intends their parenting to accomplish, Farley has written this helpful treatment. He explores how Scripture addresses parents and their role. While substantial, Farley’s work is also quite accessible, making it easy to read (and recommend).
review 2: This has been my favorite book on parenting. Farley really puts the gospel at center stage rather than any formula (though he does suggest many things). Another point I loved about this book is the author magnifies the importance of a properly ordered home--Dad as Hea... mored and Chief Parent, and Mom, equally important, but under Dad's authority and Assistant Parent. God's order is perfect. I also appreciated Farley's illustration of the Gospel. Between this book and "Don't Waste your Life" by John Piper I feel better equipped to portray the gospel truth to my children. less
