Total Family Makeover

Proverbs tells us to train up our children in the way they should go, but if we’re honest, some days it’s a battle just to get them dressed and ready for school on time. How can you mold their hearts when sometimes you can’t even find their shoes? Throughout the Gospels, Christ lived by example and helped his disciples learn through teaching and hands-on training. When you stop measuring your parenting success on your child’s daily activities and instead focus on modeling what it’s like to live like Jesus, your children can learn the same way. In Total Family Makeover, author Melissa Spoelstra gives parents a spiritual training course to run when it comes to family discipleship. She provides eight key areas to model: prayer, Bible study, mentoring, community, serving, rest, generosity, and evangelism. Whether your children are babes in arms or teenagers getting ready to leave the nest, making disciples at home starts with YOU! Give your family a makeover with this practical approach to helping your children learn what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
