Great Parenting Resources (Part 3 of 5)

Teach Them Dilegntly, by Lou Priolo

Where “Shepherding a Child’s Heart” provides convincing Biblical evidence of the need to focus on the heart of issues in childrearing, “Teach them Diligently” provides parents with detailed ways to apply the Scriptures to these issues.  Author Lou Priolo shares from his own parenting experiences in providing this practical and Biblically sound model.

Priolo draws primarily from 2 Timothy 3:16 which states that “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.”  He explains the difference between teaching, reproof, correction, and training, as well as the importance of each in raising children.

This excellent book is available from Lou Priolo’s website (unfortunately, I’ve given my only copy away!). A study guide is also available. For more information on this resource, I also found this excellent book review.

Out of all the resources and books on children that I have read, I can say that this is one of the most Biblically-sound and practical. It will be an excellent read that God will use to equip you for your most important ministry!
