Saving the Millennial Generation will help you understand Millennials–what makes them tick and what ticks them off when it comes to school, church, and home. You’ll have to earn their trust, but it’ll be well worth the effort. Because in the end, you’ll build relationships that will bring fruit both today and into all eternity– for you and for the Millennials.

Standing On The Promises
$25.00God has designed each family to be a culture – with a language, customs, traditions, and countless unspoken assumptions. The culture of the family intimately shapes the children who grow up in it. It is the duty of the father to ensure that the shaping takes place according to biblical wisdom.
Some fathers establish a rebellious culture for their children and bring upon their children the wrath of God, sometimes for generations. Other fathers fail to establish any distinct culture, and outside cultures rush to fill the void.
Through the Messiah, God promised blessings to His people, “their children, and their children’s children forever.” The norm for faithful members of the covenant is that their children will follow them in their faithfulness.
This book is part of Douglas Wilson’s series of books on the family, which has helped many people trying to deal with the everyday messes that come with sinners trying to live under the same roof.
