Format:Paperback
This book answered so many questions for me. Having read "Shepherding a Child's Heart", I understood the concept of how to parent biblically by looking at heart issues instead of behavior and using scripture to do so, but I didn't know what scriptures to use or exactly how to implement this plan. "Teach Them Diligently" gives the detailed explanation, along with categorized scriptures of how to convict, rebuke, teach, and train your children with God's Word. A must-have for any parent who desires to bring up children to be spiritually equipped to handle life. It makes your life a whole lot easier. My 4 year-old son already has four such scriptures hidden in his heart only two weeks after my husband and I implemented these parenting principles. Thanks Lou!

This book is excellent! I love it because it works! My Children know that I love them enough to train them in the righteousness of God. My favorite part is the quick reference guide of verses that address specific negative behaviors that is located in the back of the book. I have also read Lou's book entitled 'The Heart of Anger'. They are both full of Love and Wisdom!

I must say that I am quite saddened at the reviews of this book. I found this the BEST of all books I have read on the subject. Finally someone explains the reason and the way. Not just advice but practical hands on tools. And for those of you who are turned off by it then you may need to reread some of the scripture yourself. Remember we are all sinners.. We are born sinners (Augustine) and it is only by the mercy and grace of Christ that we forgiven. Just as the Father loves us and cannot look upon our sin, he must punish sin so too must we as parents. Love is justice. How can one claim to love their child and then not correct them. The two do not go together. I absolutely loved loved loved this book! We have spread the word and many in our church are now reading it. Thanks Lou! We parents needed that.
