I had the privilege of reading Lee Nienhuis' second book, Countercultural Parenting: Building Character in a World of Compromise. In a nutshell: run to get this valuable parenting book!
Lee's first book, Brave Mom Brave Kids, was an amazing parenting book, and Countercultural Parenting simply builds on the momentum of that book. However, you don't need to read the first book to appreciate the wisdom in Countercultural Parenting!
Lee offers amazing knowledge and insight into raising children that are NOT the status quo. If you are looking for HOPE in an honest form, Lee offers that in Countercultural Parenting. As Lee states, "Is it crazy to imagine that we could raise children who are godly, who will grow into righteous leaders? Could they become men and women who choose for the earliest age to be people of character, steadfast and immovable?"
Lee then follows through with the how to of parenting and raising children who go against the culture! In Countercultural Parenting, Lee shares the insight that not only helps you propel yourself toward raising godly children but also the insight to help you as a parent who does not follow the status quo.
Lee offers a fresh (and rich) look at Biblical characters who can serve as role models and examples for parents and for our children. I highlighted so many passages in this book! I can't wait to share this with friends as an encouragement in their parenting journey.
No longer can we raise children who are part of the status quo of society. It is clear it is no longer working. We need to stand up and raise countercultural children. Lee's book is a great resource for just that.
I was given a free copy of Countercultural Parenting: Building Character in a World of Compromise by Lee Nienhuis for my honest review. I was thrilled to do this and would highly recommend this book!
