Publisher's summary

It’s hard to overestimate the importance of the family, and that of fathers in particular. We’ve heard it said, “As the family goes, so goes the nation.” But it can also be said that “as the father goes, so goes the family”. Consequently, Voddie Baucham has set out to teach men how to faithfully shepherd their families.

Derived from Baucham’s monthly meetings with men in his church, Family Shepherds calls men to accountability for their God-given responsibilities in their homes. Baucham’s clear style and practical approach will spur men to protect their marriage, raise kingdom-minded children, value the synergy between church and home, and navigate difficult family dynamics.

Family Shepherds is a book for any husband or father looking to lead well, and it will serve as an excellent resource for churches looking to equip the men in their congregations.

FANTASTIC Resource

This has been one of the most practical “how to” guides for leading my wife and kids spiritually. Voddie does a great job, as usual, backing every recommendation and application with specific scriptures to draw from.

Accidentally posted review of another book here…

I thought I clicked the correct book in Audible when I left my review, but apparently I didn’t. Disregard Greta Thunberg review, please!

Another exceptional work by Voddie

Families are the institution God uses to conquer the world for Christ. Voddie continues to equip and direct men to do this crucial task and thus continues to be a significant blessing to the church. Every man should read this book.
