Grandparenting can be grim at times. Then again, it can be rewarding beyond anything we've ever experienced. One thing we all agree on is the desire to get it right. One of our purposes at Christian Grandparenting Network is to provide or point out resources to help grandparents minister to their children and grandchildren.
There are many books for grandparents and we are highlighting 6 this month. All these books are available through our partnership with Christianbook.com and we know they will be a blessing to you.

What Jesus Demands from the World By John Piper / Crossway Books & Bibles The four Gospels are filled with demands straight from the mouth of Jesus. These demands are His way of showing us who He is and what He expects of us. Rather than the harsh demands of a taskmaster, they're like the demands of a father to his child in a burning window saying, "Jump to me!" All of Jesus' authoritative commands can be summed up as "Trust and treasure me above all!" In What Jesus Demands from the World, Piper has gathered fifty of Jesus' demands from the four Gospels. Blending historical context, exegetical insights, and application, Piper concisely examines each demand. The result is an accessible introduction for seekers and new believers as well as meditative meat for mature Christians wanting to know Jesus better! |
