Parents who are serious about raising their children for Christ will discover in this volume a treasury of reliable counsel. Andrew Murray said, "'Train' is a word of deep importance for every parent to understand. Training is not telling, not teaching, not commanding, but something higher than all these. It is not only telling a child what to do, but also showing him how to do and seeing that it is done." Formerly titled How to Raise Your Children. From the back cover: Children are gifts from the Lord. In this practical guide to parenting, Andrew Murray shows the essential qualities of being a parent who loves the Lord. He also shows you how to:

• • Build your family in the Lord
  • Alleviate stressful family situations
  • Direct your children's steps
  • See the needs of your family met
  • Obtain the fulfillment of God's promises
  • Offer godly advice to your children
  • Lead your children to salvation
