About this listen

Parenting in today's world can feel like an uphill battle. How do we guide our children through the social and spiritual minefields of our culture? How do we make sure that they are ready when they leave the nest? And how do we trust God to watch over them as they do?

In this classic book, beloved author Elisabeth Elliot reveals cherished memories and valuable insights she gathered from her experiences growing up in a Christian home. Through the stories of her parents, grandparents, and siblings, Elliot extols the importance of obedience, prayer, trust, courtesy, and forgiveness, among many other lessons she learned as a child.

The Shaping of a Christian Family is an inspiring book for new and experienced parents, grandparents, and all who have come to trust Elliot's compassionate wisdom.

This book is read by Elisabeth Elliot’s granddaughter and namesake, Elisabeth Shepard Martin.
