Christian Family Home

 

 

Introduction

This section of discipleheart is dedicated to helping families experience all the blessings that God intended. We are told that "Every family in the home life should be a church, a beautiful symbol of the church of God in heaven." {Lt104-1897.10}. We are also told "The training of children constitutes an important part of God’s plan for demonstrating the power of Christianity." {Ms49-1901.22} Being a parent I have always been interested in the subject. I have read many books on the subject, including Adventist Home and Child Guidance. Much greater interest came, however, as I was traveling home from India in November of 2016 and had the time to read multiple complete articles on the subject of the Christian family. Since that time in 2016 I have read more than 250 articles, letters and manuscripts. I have been in awe of what I have read. I have been struck by a sense of urgency for families that I had not perceived in the past. I noticed a positive approach that came through all of the articles. I learned about how Ellen White raised children, some of whom were not her own, and in her words, had "perfect success." This is a timely subject and I hope to share some of the things that I have found that have been so helpful.—Dan

Ellen White wrote hundreds of documents on raising children—more than 250! Here you will find some of them recorded for listening.

 

Ellen White's Later Messages On Parenting Children

On this page you will learn about Ellen White speaking on parenting children in the later years of her life. From her correspondence with several individuals we know that God instructed her to share these messages on how to discipline and work with children because parents were not doing so correctly.. These sermons and articles were rendered between 1910 and 1912. Because other books were being prepared, many of these messages were never formally published. Anyone can access these documents, however, in the "Manuscript and Letters" section of the data base.
