Gregg, having read thru this book already, has begun a morning study w/ our oldest 5 children going thru Voddie Baucham's book, What He Must Be: ...If He Wants to Marry My Daughter. It's a great book that plants the seeds for a multi-generational outlook, as well as preparing daughters and sons for the roles that they will likely assume in the future. It encourages purposefulness and raising the bar when evaluating a suitor. It also opens the door for some great conversations with your children! It allows them to voice concerns or thoughts that they've had - but just haven't "come up". We certainly recommend it!
I adore this book! It is excellent. It is one that I will be pulling out again and again.

Thanks for posting about this! It's funny, but I have never considered the fact that my family might benefit from it. We don't have any daughters, so I assumed that we wouldn't need it. But yes, of course, it would be helpful in training our sons. Duh! :)
ReplyDeleteWe heard Voddie speak at a conference last year and were very impressed.
