That is, how to relate the Bible to the raising of our children in actual, practical ways. Whatever else you are doing to equip your children, do you really know how to use the Bible for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness with your children? In Teach Them Diligently Lou Priolo has given a tool that will strengthen you in this vital area.

This book presented a significant challenge, yet it was extremely helpful.

It emphasized that the Scriptures should hold a central place in our parenting. Priolo's work really pushed me to have a deep understanding of the Scripture so that I could provide a relevant verse or passage whenever I instructed my children.

Moreover, ever since reading this book, I have been actively seeking every possible opportunity to share with my children what God reveals in His word. This is not just limited to the times when the children disobey and require correction.

I initially debated awarding this book 5 stars solely based on its content. However, after careful consideration, I decided on 4 stars because it could benefit from a bit better editing.

Despite this minor drawback, the overall value and impact of the book on my parenting approach have been substantial.

I would highly recommend this book to other parents who are looking to incorporate the teachings of the Bible into their daily parenting.

It has truly been a game-changer for me and has given me a new perspective on how to raise my children in a way that is pleasing to God.

Priolo not only convicts but also encourages in his call to raise children "in the nurture and admonition of the Lord."

He presents a powerful biblical argument for training children in accordance with scripture, and offers a wealth of practical examples and tools for implementation.

This book is also filled with the gospel, making it clear that our task as parents (or anyone responsible for a child's spiritual growth) is reliant on God's grace in our lives.

It is the kind of book that I will return to often, as it provides valuable guidance and inspiration for the important task of raising children in a godly way.

Whether you are a new parent or have been raising children for years, this book has something to offer.

It challenges us to be intentional in our parenting and to look to God for the wisdom and strength we need to raise children who will grow up to love and serve the Lord.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in raising children in a way that is faithful to the teachings of the Bible.

This is an outstanding Christian parenting book.

It imparts to parents the knowledge of how to educate, convict, correct, and train their children by means of the Scriptures.

Moreover, it serves as a reminder that our utmost priority should be to establish a relationship with The Lord and engage in the study of His Word.

There exists no other alternative through which we can effectively utilize the Scriptures to disciple our kids.

The author urges us to structure our schedules around God's Word, rather than merely attempting to fit the Bible into our already overcrowded schedules.

This is truly excellent advice!

I am frequently convicted by the thought that if I were to have a deeper understanding of the Bible, I would be a far better (that is, more biblical and more godly) parent.

Let us now strive to become such parents!

This book is among the top parenting resources, along with Paul David Tripp's "Shepherding a Child's heart" and "Instructing a child's heart", John MacArthur's "Successful Christian parenting", and other works by Lou Priolo.

It offers valuable insights and practical guidance for parents who desire to raise their children in accordance with the teachings of the Bible.

By following the principles and advice presented in this book, parents can help their children develop a strong foundation in the faith and grow into godly individuals.

I read this as reference material. It is an extremely easy read, which makes it very convenient for me to understand and absorb the content.

Moreover, by bookmarking specific pages, I am able to quickly locate the example of ill behavior as well as several advising scripture references. This not only saves my time but also allows me to have a more targeted study.

The appendix of this material is particularly helpful. It provides additional information and details that further enhance my understanding of the main text. The content in the appendix is presented in a clear and organized manner, making it easy to follow and refer back to when needed. Overall, this reference material is a valuable resource for me in my studies and research.

This book was good,

but it was not the best one I've read on child-rearing.

Overall, there were some excellent instructions, tips, and thoughts on using scripture to support the process of raising children.

However, my main criticism was that the gospel and the love of Christ, which should be the main focus of the household, were absent.

Moreover, household devotions were not really discussed at all.

This lack of emphasis on the core aspects of the Christian faith in the context of child-rearing was a significant drawback for me.

I believe that without a strong foundation in the gospel and a regular practice of household devotions, it is difficult to raise children with a deep understanding and love for God.

Despite these shortcomings, the book did offer some valuable insights and practical advice that could be useful for parents who are looking for ways to incorporate scripture into their child-rearing practices.

However, I would recommend that readers supplement this book with other resources that place a greater emphasis on the gospel and household devotions.
