Description
How can we raise the next generation to follow Christ and live according to God’s directives in His Word? Author Lee Ann Mancini says what our children need is a heart change—not just a behavioral change—so that they become effective disciples. In Raising Kids to Follow Christ: Instilling a Lifelong Trust in God, she inspires parents, grandparents, teachers, and others to teach their children using loving guidance and discipline. Scripture tells us, “For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it” (Hebrews 12:11). Lee Ann shares tried-and-true methods for raising children who bear that peaceful fruit. Raising Kids to Follow Christ offers: • Personal experiences and teachings based on God’s Word • Strategies and techniques for transforming disciplining into discipling • Ways to help children control their emotions and actions in various situations • Suggestions from some of today’s brightest Christian minds in children’s spirituality • Real-life examples of parenting do’s and don’ts • Easy-to-understand apologetics for children and adults • Fun ways to connect your child’s heart to Christ Raising Kids to Follow Christ will help you raise children who are bold in their witness and committed to their faith rather than secular culture.
