NEW FROM CANON

What do you want most for your kids?

A good job? A happy Marriage? Perfect attendance at every holiday? A life without enemies?

David and Esther and Job are not impressed. God’s favorite characters offer us a different vision.

The goal for parents is not to keep  your kids forever, but instead, to  raise men and women the world  will need.

Fifty years from now, who will be  starting schools, and making laws, and preaching, and farming, and  reporting on the truth no matter the  cost, and beheading giants?   Our kids. Our grandkids.

What will your family legacy be?

OUR KIDS HAVE GOD'S IMAGE.

THIS IS WHY WE MAY NOT RENDER OUR CHILDREN TO THE STATE. THEY BELONG TO GOD.

Biblical child-rearing is a gigantic custody battle between the state and Christ. We are disputing the custody of the next generation. Fifty years from now, who’s going to be fighting the battle? Our kids. Our grandkids. They’re going to be the ones in the front lines, and so we need to be equipping them now. At some point, we are not going to be in the battle anymore. The training, the allegiances, the loyalties, the information, the backbone—all of that needs to be handed on now.

Great title. Like the cover.

I started reading the book but then I am listening to it as well. Doug hits spot on the issues of the day. I am evaluating myself even though most of my sons are out of the house- and are just starting families. I am giving them this book as a resource. Right up there with future men.

Wonderful information. Short enough for even a parent to have time to read.

Loved it!

Excellent

This book is an encapsulation for why I love Canon Press and have followed them through the years. —Practical truth for raising your kids in the Lord, raising your kids in the church, helping to build a godly framework for making the right decisions, discipline them when they go off the rails, teaching repentance and forgiveness for sin goes both ways, and working diligently at being a consistent example for them in your own life so that they can see you Love and obey the Lord too.
