Description
Author: Dr. David Sorenson
What does the Bible teach about raising children? Training your Children to Turn Out Right equips Christian parents with biblical principles for character development and spiritual growth to help their children turn out right.
Widely acclaimed and distributed, Training your Children to Turn Out Right is now in its fourth printing. Many Christian leaders have commented that it is the best book they have read on the subject. In keeping with Dr. Sorenson’s style, this book is easy to read, yet packed with in-depth Scriptural principles and illustrated with poignant illustrations from real life.
“In talking with Christian parents, there is often the sense that bringing up a child in today’s world is a big gamble. maybe they will turn out right and maybe they will not. And sometimes there is the idea that, ‘Well, the devil got them, and there was nothing we could do.’ Both of those ideas are categorically wrong.”
- Dr. Sorenson
Training Your Children to Turn Out Right shows parents just how much they can do to make sure their children will continue living right as they become teens and young adults. The Bible, the Blueprint for all our lives, is truly the “instruction manual” so many parents wish they had for raising their children. Dr. Sorenson makes these biblical principles easy to understand with many interesting illustrations.
