An Excellent Biblical Perspective for Child Raising,
By A Customer
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
Mr. Stormer provides a practical guide to child raising for those who wish to follow God's plan for child raising. It is filled with scripture as well as studies and research (with references). Provides discussion about how to build Biblical character traits into your child, what to expect at different ages (birth-three), and what the parents can do to build a secure home. We read this book before we had our first child and re-read parts occassionally.

A VALUABLE BOOK!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
I am currently reading and studying this book. It is proving to be very valuable to me as a parent. I am a stay-at-home Christian mother who agrees wholeheartedly with this author's view point. My children are adapting happily to his suggestions. Some of the things I have learned so far are: the reasons of the decline of American families, the importance of spending quality time with my children in reading, crafts, (even shopping!), teaching character-building skills and traits, keeping the TV turned OFF as much as possible, having real conversations with my children, and to be patient because training takes time!!! But, above all, this book is totally based on the truths of the Bible. This book is great! Thanks Mr. Stormer!

Growing Up God's Way,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
This book is a treasure of information and Biblical references for parents who desire to train their children according to God's plan.
In the early 1980's this book enabled the Lord to get my attention regarding parenting which led to a peaceful home and eventually led to the salvation of my youngest daughter. Now, as a grandparent and children's ministry coordinator, the Lord continues to use this gem of a book to enable me to teach and train young parents and their families. I highly recommend it to all parents and grandparents!

Helpful guidance,
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
This book was helpful to our family when we were raising our two daughters, now in their twenties. In fact, I am ordering two more (I gave my first copy to another family) for our daughters to have as they guide their own children.

Great Practical Book for Raising Children.,
By cmz46 (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
This is a very practical book on how to raise children. Should be read by all parents.

Horrible.,
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
This book is heartbreaking. Parenting does not need to be a parent vs. child battle for control. If you want to teach your children to resent you and resent God, this is a way to do that. Not a way to raise God-loving future adults. This is full of spiritual abuse as well as physical and emotional abuse.
Disgusting.

Don't buy it!,
By TRB08 "mommyT" (The Midwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
I haven't read this book, but I speak from experience as one of the children he helped rear at a Christian school. He's a nut, very holier than thou, strict, and left generations of students with emotional scars from "growing up STORMER'S way." If you have doubts check out message boards on Facebook like "the REAL Faith Christian Academy" and "I survived Faith Christian Academy."

WARNING: John Birch Society Nuttiness,
By Fred Clark (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
All books written by members of the conspiracy-addled John Birch Society ought to come with a warning label. Using God's name to peddle this nuttiness violates the Third Commandment. But, hey, if you want your kids to grow up somewhere way to the political right of Jerry Falwell and Alan Keyes, then you might just like this offering from the author of "None Dare Call It Treason."

This book represents a complete lack of logic.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Growing Up God's Way (Paperback)
The only value in this book is for its extended illustration of fallacious arguments which the author uses in an attempt to back up his ideas on the relationship between Christianity and society. I found it very humorous from this respect.It is my sincere hope that parents avoid using this book as a guide for raising their offspring. |
