英文書名:Instructing a Child's Heart
本書的結構:主要分為三篇。
一.著眼於陶塑養成教育的呼召,透視其寬度。
二.從零開始查看各種特定話題,務期真理契合教育的實質,包括心,種與收,上帝對權柄的計劃,上帝的榮耀,在主內得以完全,智慧與愚昩,教會等等,至關重要。
三.集中於陶塑養成教育的應用。如何矯正錯誤,培養紀律,創造機動性,並探討陶塑養成教育與管教的關係,包括承擔後果,行為到內心的轉變,管教的溝通基礎等。一切懲戒,必須以福音的救恩為中心,我們希望孩子能看到福音赦罪的寬容,重生的改變與救恩的大能。
We need to provide our children with a consistent, persuasive, biblical framework for understanding the world God has made and their place in it. Instructing a Child's Heart is essential to Shepherding a Child's Heart. The instruction that you provide for them not only informs their mind; it is directed to persuading their hearts of the wisdom and truthfulness of God s ways. Impress truth on the hearts of your children, not to control or manage them, but to point them to the greatest joy and happiness that they can experience delighting in God and the goodness of his ways.
