Training Up a Child, by Gwendolyn Webb
Training Up a Child, by Gwendolyn
Webb, has been revised and reprinted. Many of us used this book to assist us
as we tried to raise our children in a manner pleasing to God. Now it is time
for Training Up a Child to be used by another generation as they bring up
their children to serve God. The new book contains the same teaching found in
the old book, plus more. There is also an addendum by Dr. Denmark Speaks,
expanding the book to 476 pages.
Mrs. Webb impresses upon the reader the importance of the jobs of both
Mother and Father, showing the Biblical roles of a submissive wife and a
loving husband.
Her teaching on the necessity of consistency in discipline and requiring
immediate obedience will cause Christian readers to strive to improve.
Developing good work habits is properly called "a priceless heritage." This is
greatly needed in our society! Countless illustrations make the book
interesting to read and easy to apply.
The last section of Training Up a Child stresses parents standing together, communication, and how worshiping in spirit and truth as a family will impact upon a child.
Buy several for baby gifts. Excellent for the church library and/or a young
mothers' class.
