What the Scriptures Teach Us about Raising a Child

In an ever- changing world, what kind of parenting book can you trust? One from an authoritative source with time- proven principles that rise above social trends and experimentation. One that provides real examples and clear answers. One that acknowledges the incomparable rewards earthly and eternal of raising children. Simply put, you would want the hope and the help that can be found only in the scriptures. The scriptures are the Lord s handbook for parents, with practical advice for a wide range of challenges and situations. Master teacher Michael Wilcox distills this advice on a variety of subjects, including how to receive Heavenly Father s insights about your unique child; how to say no ; how to build long- term relationships; how to inspire qualities such as virtue, compassion, and resilience; how to help a child who is struggling; how to manage parental expectations; and much more.

S. Michael Wilcox received his Ph.D. at the University of Colorado and is an institute instructor at the University of Utah. His previous publications include When Your Prayers Seem Unanswered; House of Glory (for which he received the Orton Literary Award in 1996); Who Shall Be Able to Stand?: Finding Personal Meaning in the Book of Revelation; and numerous audio talks. He lives in Draper, Utah.
