A Review of, “How To Lead Your Family” by Joel R. Beeke

“How To Lead Your Family; A Guide For Men Wanting To Be More” by Joel Beeke is a great little guide full of biblical applications for the father, and husband. Beeke breaks this guide down into three major sections, How to be a Prophet, Priest, and King, in the home. Each one of these has practices laid out that you as a father, and husband, should be doing, and why. He manages to do so in a concise way that doesn’t sacrifice necessary information. I highly recommend this little guide. It would be great to have a few copies on hand to give away. I wish I knew to do these things when my own family was much younger. Get on it now, and don’t wait until your kids are grown. Don’t be an old couple who don’t like each other.

“Knowing and Growing in Assurance of Faith” by Dr. Joel R. Beeke.

knowingandgrowinginassuranceoffaith

If you are a Christian, you’ve probably had questions about the topic of assurance.  We’ve all had doubts about our faith at some point in our growth.  While nobody can give you assurance of your salvation, this book can help you, “Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith;” 2 Corintians 2:5a (NASB)  Dr. Beeke cites the Bible, and the writings of some very astute Puritans, and their explorations of this topic.  The book is very logically organized, and walks you through a process, by which you can examine yourself, if you are having questions about your salvation.  He unpacks where some of our problems come from, and what we should know to help us on our way.  This is one of the most accurate, and helpful books I’ve ever read on the topic.  If you are having difficulties with your assurance, I highly recommend this book.

You can pick up a copy at any of these sites; Reformation Heritage Books, Christianbook.com, and Amazon.
