A call back to the biblical landmarks.

This book calls parents and guardians back to the biblical landmarks and standards laid down in Scripture, helping them reset their homes, values, and daily practices with God’s principles rather than cultural norms.

Scriptural truths

Biblical landmarks and standards laid down in Scripture that challenge popular ideas about parenting.

Sound counsel

Principles drawn from prayerful reflection and years of observing both the rewards and consequences of parenting choices.

Practical applications

Help to reset your home, values, and daily practices with God's principles rather than cultural norms.

Not a book to skim through casually.

This is an invitation to pause, reflect, and examine long-held beliefs. It encourages you to slow down, take an honest look at your approach to parenting, and make needed corrections where harmful patterns may have taken root.

Responsibility with renewed purpose.

Whether you are raising young children, mentoring adolescents, or influencing the lives of those entrusted to your care, this handbook provides biblical tools and spiritual insight to raise God’s heritage faithfully, responsibly, and with lasting impact.

This heritage of the Lord is a trust given to us and demands that we figure out and try to mold them spiritually, morally, socially, and intellectually.

About the book

Written in obedience. Written out of a deep burden.

It is written in obedience to God’s prompting and out of a deep burden to see children restored under His covenant and prepared for the purposes He has ordained for these last days.

“Given the urgency of the task and the enabling power and grace flowing from our God, this little book is intended to awaken both those entrusted with the responsibility to correct any errors made so far.”
