Books for parents, teachers, and church leaders who long to nurture faith, character, and a love of learning in the next generations.

An Introduction to Education in Bible Times

The Bible has much to say about the education of children by fathers and mothers within the community of faith. Education in the Bible was more than an intellectual pursuit. It was centered on knowing God and on learning His ways. It was not disconnected from every day real life; rather, it was integrated with life itself, giving it direction and meaning. This book brings to life God’s rich pattern of family and community centered education.

Our Father, Our Teacher

We all need the life-foundation of knowing God as our Father. God is our Father and our Teacher. From the very beginning He sought this relationship with His people. Now through Jesus Christ we are born again into the Father’s family where He raises and teaches us, conforming us into the image of His Son. Through this intimate, relational process we come to know Him as our Abba, our Father. And through this we have the template of being fathers and mothers.

Every Child Has a Story

God is restoring in fathers and mothers the understanding to be intentional in the nurture, instruction, and faith development of their children. In the heart of God, every child has a story. Therefore, He calls parents, teachers, and church leaders to purposefully partner with Him in raising a generation of children who are secure in their identity, resilient in life, inquisitive to learn, and strong in their faith. This book helps parents become both informed and intentional in engaging in their children's learning and development.

The Parent-Teacher, 2nd Edition

Why does God call parents to be engaged in their children’s education? How do parents teach and effectively participate in this? Parents are called to exhibit nature of God in the teaching of their children. They are never to relinquish this key role in their children’s learning and development. This book helps parents grow in effective ways of engaging in each child’s education through (1) recognizing their role, (2) understanding the learning process, and (3) gaining intuitive ways of loving and leading throughout their children’s education.

Meditations for Parents

Being a parent can be challenging in many ways. We all need the specific encouragement that God gives to parents in His Word. This book invites you to step in to the world of the Bible, one story at a time, and experience the unfailing compassion of the Heavenly Father. These illustrated stories will strengthen and inspire your trust in a faithful God who cares for you and your family. Each story is about a 5-minute read with Scripture references provided for further reading and meditation.

God's Timeless Principles for Every Christian Marriage

Christian marriage is a covenant that mirrors God’s loyal love as illustrated in the relationship between Christ and the Church. This book leads the readers through a path of discipleship and the working of the Holy Spirit into a life of oneness that is a witness to our children and to the world around us of the love of God in Jesus Christ. God intends that children learn and grow in homes where they witness His self-sacrificing love in fathers and mothers—husbands and wives—who have laid aside selfish pursuits in favor of His relational design for marriage.
