To You and Your Children

Examining the Biblical Doctrine of Covenant Succession

Covenant nurture of Christian children must begin with God's promises about covenant succession. Christian parents today face a disturbing exodus of their children from the Church to the world. Why is this? What is the place of children within the faith? What do the promises mean? Recognizing that this subject is fraught with difficulty and grief, the twelve contributors to this volume seek to address the hard questions and lay a biblical foundation of hope for our children.

This collection of essays, edited by Benjamin K. Wikner, includes detailed exegetical and historical studies, reflections on our current culture, and practical applications of the Bible's teaching on these matters. It features contributions from Douglas Wilson, Tim Bayly, Joel Beltz, David Hagopian, Douglas Jones, Robert S. Rayburn, and others, with a foreword by R.C. Sproul, Jr.
