About this title

Synopsis

Scripture promises that God's people "shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth children for trouble; for they shall be the descendants of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them" (Is. 65:22-23) and that Christ "will turn...the hearts of the children to their fathers" (Mal.4:6).

Yet Christian parents today face a disturbing exodus of their children from the Church to the world. Why is this? What is the place of children within the faith? What do the promises mean? Recognizing that this subject is fraught with difficulty and grief, the twelve contributors to this volume seek to address the hard questions and lay a biblical foundation of hope for our children.

This collection of essays includes detailed exegetical and historical studies, reflections on our current culture, and practical applications of the Bible's teaching on these matters. It features contributions from Douglas Wilson, Timothy Bayly, Joel Beltz, David Hagopian, Douglas Jones, Robert S. Rayburn, and others.
