Duties of Parents
Description
It's over 100 years since J.C. Ryle wrote Duties for Parents, but even today his exhortations help challenge parents to point their children to Christ. This version, in modern English, is designed to help a new generation of parents understand the importance of a loving, caring, and godly home, not without discipline but where children come to know and understand God for themselves.
This timeless Bible teaching from Ryle has been described by many as one of the best resources for parents, outside of the Bible.
