Training the Child's Heart: Practical Hints for Christian Parents - Trumbull (Audiobook)

Henry Clay Trumbull offers practical, Scripture-minded hints for Christian parents that challenged me in areas of child-training I hadn’t thought through as deeply—especially his call to help children form their own biblical convictions rather than merely borrowing ours. Chapters like Honoring a Child’s Individuality and Training a Child as a Questioner are especially thought-provoking, and even where you may not agree with every emphasis, Trumbull models a wise balance of gentleness and firmness. In an age when parenting counsel often drifts from Scripture, this book provides biblical perspective and usable guidance for shepherding the precious souls God has entrusted to us.Scroll Reader: https://scrollreader.com/audiobook/training-the-childs-heart/Paperback/Kindle: https://amzn.to/4pppmGhChapters (0:00) Introduction (2:07) Preface (4:15) 1 - Child-Training: What Is It?
