Endorsements

“I strongly recommend a reading of this booklet, especially by parents who are here given a warm and convincing case for the value of family worship to their children and indeed for all the household.” —Rev. Maurice Roberts

Dr. Joel R. Beeke has given us a gold mine of seasoned counsel for this grossly neglected duty in modern-day Reformation. If heeded, these clear and practical directives will play a vital role in building not only happier Christian homes, but also, healthier churches—churches that will last for generations to come!” —Pastor Jerry Marcellino

Brief. Concise. Practical. Godly.

This book is amazing. My wife and I are talking about having children after seminary. I have been struggling with being motivated to lead my wife in private worship time and came across this book. I thought it was practical within the first two chapters, but by chapter 3, I was blown away by how very helpful Beeke's insights are in illustrating to me how to implement traditions now, before we have children. The traditions of the Reformed heads of house that have gone before us has interested me, but this book really takes those teachings from God's Word and gives rise to my affections for godly leading. Beeke did it without having to make the book 300 pages. I am a grateful man.

Excellent Book!

This book is great for understanding the necessity for family worship but is absolutely wonderful in the practical aspects of it.

I came to the book desiring to lead my family in family worship but having young children I struggled to know how to do it.

My kids absolutely have loved this time and it is a wonderful time for our family to seek the Lord together.
