Having parents in the home doesn’t mean that parenting is actually happening. Parenting is a God-given task that ensures young children are protected and nurtured into maturity in the fear and admonition of the Lord. But America and the church faces a crisis of parenting: detached or absentee fathers, single mothers, and grandparents raising the next generation. What’s more, how should parents actually parent? And what does the gospel have to say to the epidemic of family breakdown, and the difficult task of raising children well?
So, what now?
Editors Russell Moore and Andrew T. Walker of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) assemble leading voices to frame the issue with a gospel-centered perspective. The Gospel for Life series gives every believer a biblically-saturated understanding of the most urgent issues facing our culture today, because the gospel is for all of life.
The Gospel Parenting (Gospel For Life) Reviews
-
A short but very solid little book. There were a couple small things I didn’t totally agree with, but the main principles are spot on.
-
Highly recommended! Very compelling points on Christ-centered parenting that advocates discipleship in our children. It addressed stark contrast of worldly parenting and its consequences versus Christian parenting. I like how it’s straightforward and concise about our mission as parents. The book has discussion questions that my husband and I go through, which very helpful in realigning ourselves. Would definitely read this book every now and then.
-
I bought this one thinking it might be good for me to recommend to parents, but I think it speaks to pastors and Christian leaders more. However, still lots of good stuff.

This book was okay. I love the premise but thought some of the conclusions drawn were unhelpful
