Publisher's summary

As a Christian father, you bear a tremendous responsibility - to raise your children through both biblical instruction and personal example. But how can you succeed in a society that attacks the role of fatherhood and godly family values? Are you sometimes tempted to give in or give up? The rewards of being a dad who leads are well worth making the effort to stand firm. The Bible offers clear guidance for dads on how to parent effectively. Join pastor-teacher John MacArthur as he looks at...

  • The keys to building healthy family unity
  • Essential character qualities to teach every child
  • How to lovingly discipline children and nurture obedience
  • Traps to avoid in the course of parenting
  • The power of a dad's example to influence future generations

Commit yourself to being a dad who leads, and God will enable you every step of the way. There's no surer path to experiencing a lifetime of family blessings!

Great for dads struggling to lead a difficult home.

This is the first book I’ve finished in a decade that the Lord has brought my way. My family has went through so much I can’t believe it’s not a fictional story. After pushing back against the grain, I finally submitted and read a book on Biblical leadership. I’m so glad I did. Grace to you and ligonier literature has transformed my life from a desolate reprobate, to a reformed Christian who understands my fallenness, but the grace of God through his omniscience. Stay strong as a man, and I recommend you read this more than once and study the verses provided. Love you wife, and Shepard your children as the Lord commands. They need us greatly to lead with strength, and a soft touch. “A truly strong man isn’t afraid to be humble and approachable.

Where it takes you

This is a fantastic book. It includes a great amount of real live examples on how to be a better father. The author's point of view is easily taken and understood and with the riding style of John MacArthur it is very enticing and makes you want to continue to read.

I would recommend this book to anyone with an open mind that is learning how to be a better parent and father.

Great book, great narration

A strong and convicting peace written by a notoriously faithful minister of the Gospel. Eye opening regarding how we as fathers and men, can faithfully raise our children in a corrupt society.
