"I found this book very helpful and challenging. Another winner from the Tripps, right in line with Shepherding a Child's Heart. This book gave me lots of practical help for how to make the most of daily life with my children in order to give them a framework in which to interpret life.
In other words, the book is all about how to talk about the Lord with your kids all the time. What most struck me is how God has built the principle of sowing and reaping into the world, and we should maximize on that to teach our children that there are always consequences for their actions. This truth had a significant impact on my communication with our sons.
I found myself on almost every page thinking, "man, I just can't do what God expects me to do!" The Gospel was certainly present in the book, and it was presented clearly in the final chapter the only hope for both parents and children. However, I would have preferred more of this good news scattered throughout the book, alongside of the ubiquitous conviction."
"From out of our hearts, flows either sin or goodness. Our children's hearts need to be instructed in goodness during their formative years. Teach them to examine their own hearts against the formative instruction from God's Word that they have received. I like the idea of examining actions as a symptom of the heart issues. The heart is the root of the behavior. Good practical examples of sample conversations included. No lecturing the child but listening and questioning as a fellow sinner who also struggles to obey."
