    Overview

    How many generations does it take to lose the culture?

    According to the Bible — it only takes one.

    In her first book, author Leslie Nunnery shines a much-needed light on the struggle many parents are having to pass on a godly legacy to their children. She gets right to a fundamental weakness of Christian parenting in this post-modern era: we have forgotten the importance and the privilege of parenting children today. Nunnery offers highlights from the cautionary tale of the Israelites' poor parenting to illuminate what is happening today in many Christian homes: though God has given us the tools to teach our children, we often fail to use them.

    It’s easy to say we trust Christ for everything, but are we living that truth? We’ve been given clear instruction in a powerful promise for parents. God tells us in Deuteronomy to “teach our children diligently.” This passage and many others give us great insight as to how to do that and enjoy the promised blessing that always accompanies the mandates we are given.

    • Learn the practical view of discipleship parenting, what God expects from parents, and how to put these truths into action
    • See how parenting with the vision of teaching them diligently will intentionally bear fruit and affect change in your own life as well
    • Move beyond giving lip-service to what you believe, and make the conscious choice to rely on the wisdom of God’s holy instruction for your life and parenting.

    So, why are we as Christian parents still uncertain? Why do we live in fear? Why are we losing our children in record numbers? What can we do about it?

    Leslie Nunnery is the real-deal — she loves the Lord; she enjoys a God-glorifying life with her husband and children, and she finds direction through prayer — leading others from her knees

    Definitely Encouraging
    Review by Ashley
    I read this book in about 2 hours--very easy read with lots of doctrinally sound encouragement. If you are a parent who is struggling with prioritizing Biblical truths in your parenting--this book will definitely help. If you are a parent already doing that, this book will encourage you to keep doing it. I am giving this book away to a momma in my homeschool co-op because it was THAT good. Nunnery does a fantastic job bringing everything back to God's word, which is the ultimate Truth. Such a great read!
