The Third Book in the Family Series

God 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 faithfulness. The oddity should be children who fall away. Unless we reestablish faithful Christian culture in countless homes, we will never reestablish it anywhere else.

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.

Love these shoes!
UGG dupes! These are amazing! I love how comfortable these are. I have worn these quite a few times now with no issue. Definitely worth the price! I have seen a couple of complaints about the durability of these, but at the selling price I would gladly repurchase these over paying for the UGG brand. They fit TTS. I will definitely be ordering these in the lighter color!

Sooo cute and comfortable!
I have two pairs of these sandals in pink and a cream color and they are sooo freaking comfortable! I have sciatic nerve pain so my leg gets fatigued fairly quickly from standing but I find these shoes allow me to stand longer and more comfortably. I’m hoping they’ll have the black sandals in an 11 back in stock soon because I want those as well 😆 If you’re looking for cute and functional footwear for the summer you can’t go wrong with these.

Not it.
Size: 10, Color: Nude, Size: 10, Color: Nude
I ordered these and was highly disappointed. The first pair I got, the velcro pieces were coming off. The threading was either coming undone or just wasnt there. On both shoes. I sent them back, had them send me a new pair, hoping it was just a fluke, cause those do happen. The next pair was better, but the corners on the velcro pads were still coming up, and i just didnt trust it to stay together. I sent them back and got a refund. As for fit, the first pair fit great, my foot was a little to skinny I think, or the straps were too loose even pulled as tight as they could go while still being able to connect the velcro pieces. It was something I could have probably worked with, they looked cute still and I still wanted to love them. The second pair, however, straps were still too loose. That didnt change. However, I got the same size, but this pair, my toes were too long for. Like, they were up on the little toe ledge thats supposed to frame your foot. That was uncomfortable. So I feel like the sizing was inconsistent. Another reason I opted to send them back for a refund. The shoes are cute, and i usually dont have issues with this brand. I have a couple pairs of boots from them that I absolutely love. But these sandals were a huge disappointment, unfortunately.

Comfy but run large!
Runs large IMO. I originally ordered a 7 and they were much too big and the straps were way too long. I ended up returning them and ordering a 6.5, and I love them. They are SO comfy and they go with just about everything. I will say the top strap gets smudged easily, but I’ve just been wiping them with a wet cloth and the smudges are gone.

Great shoes
Size: 7.5, Color: Light Brown
Love these! Super comfy and love that they give me a little height. I'm a 7 to 7.5. had to go with the 7s. Don't recommend sizing up. The color is nice too. Definitely a great purchase.
