Truly Biblical Book |
|
I like this book because it is principle-driven rather than formula-driven. It focuses on the Christlike character in the heart of both the parents and children. Isn't this the focus we as Christians should be after, rather than simply trying to produce perfect children? I believe it truly captures the heart of God for families. I began applying Tripp's disciplinary principles to my 8 month old son and I'm so glad I did. He knows that my discipline is out of love and now he is a very well adjusted 2 year old. This book gave me more confidence to be a great parent and I look forward to referring back to it as I grow in Christlikeness. FYI: Another good one is "Sacred Parenting" by Gary Thomas. |

Not a fix kids quick book |
|
If you want to read a book that will help you lead your children into a relationship with Christ through your obedience in training them properly, then this is the book for you. I have found that the best parenting tips are those that bring my lack of faith and obedience to my attention. How can I expect my children to obey me when I don't obey my father in heaven? This book teaches a lifestyle of training. Training your children in the way they should go - obedence to their creator. Tedd Tripp speaks clearly and his guidence is very Biblical. However, beware you will not change your children over night. In using Mr. Tripps biblical teaching I have noticed my children's hearts change toward me and their God. It is a blessing to see. It only encourages me to continue on this path. This is a great book. I have copies in paperback and CD. When I see that I am being lazy in my parenting I just put in a CD and I am reminded of my duty as a parent, to shepherd my child's heart. |

Inspiring Book |
|
Not only does this book give you insight for raising Godly children, it challenges you to become a better example to your children and correct the things in your life that are not Christ-like. |

worse than Pearls |

The Pearls are Christians that advocate beating children. Tedd Tripp's book is more insidious than that because it seems reasonable, but it's the same idea dressed in sheeps clothing. The theology is basically "beating the sin" out of your child- which isn't Christian at all!! I recommend something more along the lines of "Grace Based Discipline". |

Awesome |
|
I had no idea how many things I was doing wrong!!! And everyone thinks I am a good parent. By the worlds standard, I suppose I am. By Gods standard I was falling way short! Ted Tripp has shown me how to be kind and loving to my children. To explain to them why we do what we do, not just because I want it, but, because God calls up to do it! What a concept! IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN PARENT, THIS IS A MUST READ! I am enjoying parenting so much more, now that I am in line with Gods will! |
