One of the most challenging (and rewarding) positions a person may find themselves in is that of a parent. Unfortunately, few prepare for this great responsibility, even though it is part of the majority of one's life. J.C. Ryle comes to the rescue once again, with sound Biblical advice to aid in this daunting task.
Originally published in the 19th century as "The Duties of Parents," this short book contains 17 nuggets of wisdom for training children. You could easily read the entire book in a single evening, but we would recommend taking your time to consider each point. Study...

In this concise book, author J.C. Ryle delves into five common dangers that he considered especially plaguing to the young men he observed. Pride, Love of Pleasure, Thoughtlessness, Contempt of Christianity, and Fear of Man's Opinion are all specific perils that Ryle deals with in his direct yet pastoral style. Despite its original target of young men the precious truths and timeless advice drawn from Scripture are also very valuable to our young women as well. Ryle speaks in a very approachable and useful style that resonates today (perhaps even more so) as it did when first published. The...

Train up your child with all tenderness, affection, and patience. I do not mean that you are to spoil him, but I do mean that you should let him see that you love him. Love should be the silver thread that runs through all your conduct. Kindness, gentleness, long-suffering, forbearance, patience, sympathy, a willingness to enter into childish troubles, a readiness to take part in childish joys, - these are the cords by which a child may be led most easily, - these are the clues you must follow if you would find the way to his heart. -J. C. Ryle

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) was a prolific writer, a faithful pastor, and a dynamic preacher.

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) was a prolific writer, a faithful pastor, and a dynamic preacher. This collection of sermons and tracts titled Wheat or Chaff was originally published as a collection in 1853. This is a collection of Bishop Ryle's most searching sermons which is probably precisely the need of the church in this present day. As usually J.C. Ryle's sermons are so timeless being as relevant today as the day that he preached them.

Coming Events and Present Duties consists of eight sermons, delivered on public occasions, at various intervals during my ministry, and afterwards published in the form of tracts. Of these sermons, one or two have perhaps obtained a greater circulation than they deserved, while one or two, in my humble judgment of more real worth - have received comparatively little notice. They are now brought together in their present form, for the convenience of those who wish to have a manual of my views of prophecy, in a compact state. I am more and more convinced, as I grow older - that to keep our eyes...

When the Apostle Paul wrote his Epistle to Titus about his responsibility as a minister, he mentioned young men as a group requiring particular attention. After speaking of older men and older women, and young women, he adds this advice, "Encourage the young men to be self-controlled" (Titus 2:6). I am going to follow the Apostle's advice. I propose to offer a few words of friendly exhortation to young men. I am growing old myself, but there are few things that I can remember so well as were the days of my youth. I have a most distinct recollection of the joys and the sorrows, the hopes and...

As a minister, I cannot help remarking that there is hardly any subject about which people seem so tenacious as they are about their children. I have sometimes been perfectly astonished at the slowness of sensible Christian parents to allow that their own children are in fault, or deserve blame. There are not a few people to whom I would far rather speak about their own sins, than tell them their children had done anything wrong. Come now, and let me place before you a few hints about right training. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit bless them, and make them words in season to...
