Growing Up God's Way

John A. Stormer Β· 1984
60/100
πŸ‘Ž Skip It

Stormer's pastoral and school administration experience gives this a practical grounding, and the birth-to-school-age structure is useful for parents looking for stage-specific guidance. The problem is that 1984 developmental thinking has moved on in some meaningful ways, and Stormer's political associations and ideological lens β€” John Birch Society, None Dare Call It Treason β€” permeate the cultural commentary. A fit for readers already inside Stormer's specific conservative Protestant tradition; a poor match for everyone else.
