Raising Kids in a You Can Do It World
The world teaches our kids that they are awesome and that they can achieve anything they want. As parents, this can seem an attractive message; we want our children to succeed, to be happy, and to have confidence. But as Christians we also want our children to grow up knowing and loving Jesus. It can be difficult to know how we can encourage and build up our children while also teaching them that they are sinners in need of grace.
Paul Tautges, an experienced pastor and father, helps us navigate this “You can do it world” through 8 helpful signposts. With gentleness, plenty of practical advice and biblical wisdom, Paul explains how we can train our children in humility, helping them to see how awesome God is and how true self-confidence comes from finding their identity in Christ. Suggestions for prayer and questions to aid discussion with your children will help you to put the advice contained in this book into practice.
Paul Tautges DMin, is pastor of Cornerstone Community Church in Mayfield Heights, Ohio. He has authored many books on topics related to pastoral ministry, counseling, and parenting. Paul has been married to Karen for thirty-two years. Together they cherish their ten children and growing tribe of grandchildren. He Blogs at www.counselingoneanother.com
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“I highly recommend Raising Kids in a ‘You Can Do It’ World to all parents who seek to raise Christ-centered kids in a self-centered world. Tautges lays a solid biblical foundation for how we are to view God and ourselves. He gives practical step-by-step guidance for meaningful conversations with our kids. He reminds us, ‘We are not good parents attempting to raise good children; we are sinners saved by grace who are depending upon God, and pleading with Him, to graciously give eternal life to our children, through the gospel, by means of His grace.”
Sara Wallace
author of The Gospel-Centered Mom and For the Love of Discipline
“This little book is about parenting as discipleship not parenting as a program director. It is about teaching our children a high view of God and His word and therefore a proper view of self. I hope our Lord uses it widely.”
Dr. Ernie Baker
Pastor of Counseling and Discipleship, First Baptist Church, Jacksonville; Fellow, ACBC; Certified Conciliator, The Institute for Christian Conciliation
“I can’t think of a pastor or biblical counselor I trust more to speak on this topic. As a father of five myself, I trust Paul’s insights and his practical application of Scripture to parenting. This is a must-read for parents! My wife and I just devoured it!”
Josh Weidmann
author and Senior Pastor, Grace Chapel, Englewood
“In a ‘me’ culture, this book helps us draw the inward gaze of our children upward to our amazing God. It is the right balance of challenging and hopeful, theological and practical. As a pastor and father of four, I will be using it and giving it to those I know.”
Kim Kira
Teaching Elder, Lighthouse Community Church, Torrance
