Editorial Reviews

Review

It is one of the most helpful tools I have seen in a while. It provides a quick reference tool for character verses, so that as quickly as we can label the problem we can identify a number of appropriate verses. The book is beautifully and durably hardbound for years and years of use.

This review is from: Proverbs for Parenting : A Topical Guide for Child Raising from the Book of Proverbs (Hardcover)
This book is listed as a "topical guide for raising children from the book of Poverbs" and it is just that. I thought this book would provide more information about how each of the proverbs can be utilized to help with crucial issues that arise during parenting. The book simply organizes the proverbs into groupings such as "self-control" and "relationships". It would have been nice if the author provided more guidance about how the proverbs can be used to address real-life issues that face children and adolescents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved It!, March 10, 2007
This review is from: Proverbs for Parenting : A Topical Guide for Child Raising from the Book of Proverbs (Hardcover)
I love this topical guide! It not only was great to use for my children but was also great for me! I loved that I could go to the index and find each heading pertaining to spiritual issues. (Self-control, lying etc.) I think this is good for memorization as well!

This review is from: Proverbs for Parenting : A Topical Guide for Child Raising from the Book of Proverbs (Hardcover)
This book is very helpful for those who are trying to raise children using Godly wisdom. The book is organized by topic, so you can flip to the topic that you may be dealing with and find proverbs addressing that issue. It is so very easy to use. I find it encouraging as well to read the proverbs in this order.
