[Lawrence Lartey · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book to help you raise godly kids in a godless world

The principles that are put together in this book are transformational. You must read this book if you desire to see your kids follow after the Lord

[Justin Carlton · Rating 5 out of 5]

Succinct, emphatic, and compassionate, this book carefully addresses parents, pastors, and even children themselves about the necessity of understanding personal faith, humanity's enduring sinfulness, and the critical role the church plays in the lives of individuals - and vice versa. This is an extremely useful tool that I supply to my youth staff and parents of teenagers for the foundation it lays and the misconceptions it addresses.

Great read for any parent, guardian, grandparent, or mentor in the body of Christ and is wondering what is turning generations against the local and big Church. Definitely would recommend!

Great book! A must-read.

[Rachel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really helpful book, I highly recommend. I would have liked to see more hope offered from a Covenantal perspective as well as more interaction with current research (Christian Smith, David Kinneman, et al). But overall a fantastic resource for parents written from a pastoral (not academic) perspective.
