A Father’s Gift ( Lessons from Proverbs)

Description

Many young parents today are beside themselves with anxieties about their children, and, sadly, confusion too about how to nurture them. The ongoing addiction of our times to the heresy of modernity and its proud rejection- and ignorance- of the tested and tried wisdom of the past, inevitably leads to dysfunction in home and family life. Sadly, the older, wiser counsel of God’s Word, and especially of the book of Proverbs, is unknown or neglected.

Yet Proverbs was composed specifically as a manual for home a family instruction, and to prepare us for life in the world.

It is a divinely given handbook to help parents. Here then is a book for parents to read on their own; for teenagers to read on their own; for parents and teenagers, who are willing to take the family challenge, to read round the table after dinner or on other occasions.

It points us to God’s way. It promises us God’s grace. What could be better for us than that?
