The Simply Book Shelf :: Ruth and Troy Simons' Foundations
Ruth and Troy Simons wrote Foundations: 12 Biblical Truths to Shape a Family from voices of authority and vulnerability. This isn’t a book that will make you feel worse about all the things you aren’t doing as a parent, it feels more like a friend cheering you on from a neighboring trench. The wisdom that is found in the introduction to this book alone is worth diving head first into it.
Foundations can be used as a family devotional experience or an individual one. I’m so grateful for their encouragement, for the grace to admit that they too are work in progress, and for their wisdom and insight for how to press deeper into knowing the Lord. That is our greatest call and the greatest gift we can give to our children and anyone else we encounter in this life. I cannot suggest this book highly enough!
PS: Ruth is one of my favorite follows on Instagram. Especially her #preachingtomyownheart series. Give her a follow!
