Book excerpt: American families have doubled down on their commitment to kids' sports. More children are competing--nearly 50% more than 25 years ago and a tenfold increase in high school girls participation between 1970-2000! More children start earlier. More kids focus year round on one sport. More is demanded of these athletes--more practices, more games, more travel. More is required of their parents-more money, more support, more time. Many parents feel like they're trapped in extra innings and wonder what to do about this flood of more. Bernie Schock has written this book to help parents raise kids whose passion and priority is to be God's champions in this world of more. The apostle Paul reminds us that physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things. Children's athletics provide many rich opportunities to help kids grow into men and women who love God whole-heartedly and others selflessly. This book isn't simply Monday morning quarterbacking. Bernie Schock has lived this as a father, a fan, a coach, an athlete, a referee. He admits that, at times, his involvement in sports interfered with his own love for God and others. Thus, this book seeks to direct both children's and parents' hearts. Parents will not be able to help their kids grow through sports until they understand why sports have such a powerful grip on many of them. Children's sports can be a source of great delight--or great pain. But what makes for good and bad experiences? This book seeks to answer that question so that sports can provide rich blessings to children's development--physically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually. Play ball!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one can deny our culture is opposed to Christian values, and the influences bombarding our children's moral development are difficult to contend with. But few parents and church leaders realize that a child's moral development is set by the age of nine. It is therefore critical to start developing a child's biblical worldview from the very earliest years of life. The problem is complex: parents who themselves did not receive early spiritual training leave their children's training to the church. Yet the church often focuses on older children. The answer is for churches to come alongside parents to provide them biblical worldview training, parenting information, and counseling that will equip them to help their children become the spiritually mature church of tomorrow. This helpful and hopeful book unpacks just how to develop this kind of dynamic church/parent relationship and includes profiles of churches that are effectively ministering to children and winning the war for their hearts and minds.

Book excerpt: Numerous books have been written about Victorian child care pioneers, but few biographical studies have been published about more recent child care and welfare giants. In the revised edition of this classic book, Bob Holman, a champion for children in his own right, looks at the lives of six inspirational individuals who have made significant contributions to the well-being of disadvantaged children. Each of the six discussed - Eleanor Rathbone, Lady Marjory Allen, Clare Winnicott, John Stroud, Barbara Kahan and Peter Townsend - has been important in establishing present systems of child care and welfare, and in stimulating debate around issues which remain high on policy and practitioner agendas. Champions for children is essential reading for childhood and youth studies, sociology of the family, social work, social welfare, academics and students with an interest in child care and welfare issues.
