Summary

The author of Family Driven Faithtrains Christian men to model God#x19;s truth and pass it on from generation to generation. God has mandated the transfer of his truth from one generation to the next. Because this transfer takes place primarily in the home, Voddie Baucham Jr. seeks to guide men in faithfully shepherding their families.#xA0; Derived from Baucham#x19;s monthly meetings with men in his church, Family Shepherdscalls men to accountability for their God-given responsibilities as husbands and fathers. This book will inspire them to live better, love better, and lead better so that their families will thrive in every way. Baucham#x19;s clear style and practical approach will help men protect their marriage, raise kingdom-minded children, value the synergy between church and home, and navigate difficult family dynamics. It will inspire them to carefully evaluate and live out their role in all areas of life.#xA0; Family Shepherdsis a book that every father needs and that every church will want as a resource for training the men in their congregations.
