Publisher's Synopsis
"If you raise a child in the way he should go, he will not stray as an adult."" A verse from the book of Proverbs is Proverbs 23:6.The text at the top of this page is probably familiar to most professing Christians. Its rhythm, like that of an old song, may be familiar to you. It's possible you've already seen, read, discussed, or quoted it. Isn't that the case?But, after all, how significant is the text's content? The philosophy it contains appears to be poorly understood, and the obligation it places on us appears to be dismally neglected. Isn't it true that I'm telling you the truth, reader?"
