Marriage from Roots to Fruits by Matt Pavlik: A Review
Written by a clinical counselor of 20 years for marriages already under strain. Our old page had three different book names on it. Here is the real one.
Family
Christian Marriage Conflict Resolution Guide by Tiffany Barker: A Review
122 pages on marriage conflict, but we could find nothing about the author or the publisher. On this subject, who is giving the advice matters.
Family
Biblical Mediation in Marriage and Family Conflict Resolution by Joshua Chee-Ning Lam: A Review
Written by a mediator with 20 years of practice and 40 years in ministry. Strong credentials, and a central framework we could not independently verify.
Family
Sons of Men by J. Brett Earnest: A Review
A 300-page guide for fathers raising sons, written for a mentoring program and released on Amazon in 2025. Who Earnest is and who the book suits.
Family
Keep It Light by Joel Malm: A Review
A short book on priorities, not on family leadership. Joel Malm on why Christ's burden is light and yours is not. Check which format you are ordering.
Family
Courageous Parenting by Barry Nichols and Jeremiah Johnson: A Review
Courageous Parenting by Barry Nichols and Jeremiah Johnson. What the 2025 self-published Christian parenting book covers, and what we could not verify.
Family
Finding Chika by Mitch Albom: A Review
Albom's memoir of the Haitian girl he and his wife raised, and lost to a brainstem tumor at seven. A fine book, and one you should be warned about before buying.
Family
Inner Peace by Donna Glaser: A Review
Sixty meditations pairing Scripture with Internal Family Systems, by a trauma therapist. A book about healing old wounds, and not about fatherhood at all.
Family
Habits for a Sacred Home by Jennifer Pepito: A Review
Nine household habits drawn from historic Christians like Benedict and Amy Carmichael. Written for mothers, and this page used to claim otherwise.
Family
Forming Faith by Matt Markins, Sam Luce and Mike Handler: A Review
An ECPA 2025 award winner from three Awana leaders on why children's ministry has produced the results it has. A strategic book, not a family devotions manual.
Family
Husband in Pursuit by Ryan and Selena Frederick: A Review
A 31-day action plan for husbands, co-written by Ryan and Selena Frederick. It is half of a matched pair with Wife in Pursuit, which most reviews never mention.
