Description
*Condition Note: Excellent condition.*
Doctrines are doubtless an important part of the Christian culture, but they are only one aspect of what in the early days of the church "turned the world upside down." Doctrines must be translated into lives. The "word" must become "flesh." In these days of the multiplication of Bible translations, this most important Bible translation should become paramount.
This book gives twenty-five insights into the successful early training of children for God. The lives here represented have largely been lived--their records stand written. Parents of different backgrounds used different methods to achieve their goal--"a character formed according to the divine likeness."
Some people say that the Adventist heritage is petering out--tending toward anonymity. But it will survive and remain strong as long as dedicated parents send forth young people with the stamp of character depicted in the pages of this book.
