I finished Family Shepherds today

Today, I finished reading Family Shepherds by Voddie Baucham.  Baucham does a great job sharing from Scripture what God's Word says to fathers.  He unapologetically calls men to lead their homes spiritually. 

Several chapters were of great value to me.  They were:
  • A Three-Pronged Approach to Biblical Discipleship
  • Heralding the Gospel at Home
  • Male Headship in the Home
  • Corrective Discipline
 Here are a few quotes from the last few chapters of the book:

"Thus the family shepherd must view the Bible as more authoritative than the cultural trend."
"Church membership is the most important aspect of lifestyle evaluation."
"A healthy church will expose us to the regular teaching, preaching, reading, and singing of the Word of God that will shape the way we think about all other aspects of life."
"Mature men and women in the church will gently call us out when we go off the deep end."
"Rare indeed is the man who looks honestly at his use of time in light of eternity."
