The HOME courtship marriage and children Author:John R Rice Written by Dr. Rice to answer problems about the home, It is literally a Bible manual on the problems of courtship, marriage, children, birth control, divorce, family worship, discipline, training of children, etc. How long have we needed a book written from the Christian viewpoint, one that Bible believers can absolutely depend upon, written w... more »ith sober scholarship and yet with earnest love for God and evangelistic zeal, to help people do right about these holy matters!
Too long have people had to depend upon lewd and crude books, written by ungodly men or women, people who think more of the body than of the soul, writers who study more to excite human passions than to make godly homes! Now here is a Christian book, prepared by an acknowledged Bible scholar, a book commended by Christian leaders of many faiths. This book will answer your questions. It helps young people remain chaste and spiritual in courtship; restrains the careless from hasty marriage; shows the normal plan of God about marriage, about children, and the Christian principles of a happy home, rearing good children and making sure of the blessing of God on the home.
This remarkable book should be given to every young married couple, should be kept in every Christian family. Every preacher will find it full of help in counseling his members, with many illustrations and suggestions for his sermons. You will never forget how Susannah Wesley reared her children, how Admiral Dewey was kept from becoming a criminal, how the author's six children were won to Christ.
