What does it mean to be a covenantal husband? What does it mean to be a covenantal father?

Federal thinking is foreign to the modern mind. Federal has come to mean nothing more than centralized or big. Because our federal government has become so uncovenantal, it is not surprising that the original meaning of the word is lost. But federal thinking is the backbone of historic Protestant theology, and the Church needs to recover the covenantal understanding of federal headship. Husbands are to lead their families, taking responsibility for them as covenant heads—as federal husbands.

This book is a part of Douglas Wilson's series of books on the family, which has helped many people trying to deal with the everyday messes that come with sinners living under the same roof. This book on covenantal headship contains much practical and biblical wisdom that is never more timely than now, but which we will always need to be reminded of again and again.

 

How would you describe the spiritual aroma of your home?

The source of this aroma is the relationship between husband and wife. Many can fake an attempt at keeping God's standards in some external way. What we cannot fake is the resulting, distinctive aroma of pleasure to God.

Reforming Marriage does what few books on marriage do today: it provides biblical advice. Whether it has to do with respect and love, confession of sin, sexual fidelity, or even the gnarly issues of divorce and remarriage, Douglas Wilson points to the need for obedient hearts on the part of both husbands and wives. This book is part of the Canon Press series of books on the family, which has helped many people trying to deal with the on the everyday messes that come with sinners living under the same roof. Godly marriages proceed from obedient hearts, and the greatest desire of an obedient heart is the glory of God.

Fantastic, convicting, encouraging

I was so blessed by this book. It was such a solid read that I bought a copy for each woman in my community group. I have thought back on it several times and have found it helpful to be more conscious of the spiritual battle that is always warring within us. My Dear Hemlock also reminds and encourages that those of us who are in Christ are being strengthened and sanctified; He will never let us out of His grasp.

Very helpful insights.

I've worked through this book with my grandson. We meet most days for coffee and book discussion. He's grown more confident about his fitness as a husband in the future. He requested another go through. Great intro to dating and or courtship.

a gift for grandson

I am told they love the book!! I read it as well and it's very exciting and keeps you on your toes

My Dear Hemlock

Love it and using in our small group discussions....thank you ☺️

Not For Use In The Water Closet

This is the most wholesome dystopian book I've ever read, and it has an amazing ending that is very satisfying. Most dystopian books focus on how horrible life is, how hopeless it is, and how it beats down the little guy or turns him into a depraved or broken person. Not this book. It seems much more realistic, actually theoretically possible, and better portrays how people might actually act in such poor situations. A very fun book. It's a fast paced, engaging read but you might not want to keep this book in your bathroom to be considerate to your family members!

Good little book.

Good price, quick read, son liked it.

Excellent Curriculum

We love this curriculum. Very usable for a teacher who is learning with their kids. The flashcards and quizzes are well worth it too. Highly recommend!

Great resource for the church!

Nice music, cheap binding

The music is well laid out in this two volume book but the binding isn’t strong enough to hold the weight of the pages which flop over on the music rack occasionally.

Canon Press provided quick shipping and minimal, reusable packaging. We are so thankful to start this book in our first-ever, women’s Bible study at our church! Thank you Nancy Wilson for your faithfulness to God’s Word. Your obedience in teaching women is reaching folks all over the country, in unimaginable ways. God is GOOD!

Loved it! Bought another one for a friend!

My husband and I read this book together and absolutely loved it! What a breath of fresh air!

An excellent follow up to Tilt-a-whirl, Nate discusses how we should live while reminiscing on how those who went before him modeled it for him

Confirmed my belief

Rigney does an excellent job of tracing God’s good graces from the beginning and showing balance between enjoying God’s world and keeping our eyes on what’s important.

I bought it for my wife and she loved it!

Since my wife and I was familiar with Screwtape letters by C.S. Lewis and found out that this was a spin off of that book, I decided to buy for my wife. At the outset she was already excited about the creativity of making a Screwtape letters type of book for women. Tilly Dillehay did not disappoint in making this book. I never saw my wife read a book so quickly, she just couldn't put it down. It was so good as a husband hearing about the things she was learning from the book. From a husband to another husband who may be thinking about buying this book for your wife, you will not regret your decision.

Excellent

I read it originally on Kindle and bought 2 copies following the first time I finished it. I passed one copy along to a man who recently became an elder in my church who is known for his discretion. Reading this book again with a pen.

It is powerful and hopeful, and yet extremely convicting and exposing how I have fallen short in the leadership of my family and church. I'm thankful its short because I have a hard time reading long books in this season of my life. I dont generally read books by people who are still alive, but this stood out to me and is much needed for our current times, and I believe will stand the test of time and be around for quite a while.

May God use this work to convict and transform his shepherds and people to live confidently in the glory and humility of the life He has called for us. Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and let us run, with perseverence, the race marked out for us.
