Description

In a time when children are increasingly shaped more by screens than Scripture, this companion study guide calls parents, pastors, and church leaders back to the steady, ordinary work of biblical instruction in both home and church. Drawing from the pastoral wisdom of Benjamin Keach and grounded in a Reformed understanding of sin and grace, it helps readers slow down and think carefully about how children are formed—and who is forming them.

Designed for personal reflection, group study, or classroom discussion, this guide walks alongside The Folly and Vanity of Youth to help readers process its theological claims and apply them in real-life settings within the home and local church.

Inside this study guide you will find:

  • Guided reflections on a biblical theology of children, sin, and grace
  • Discussion questions for parents, pastors, and church groups
  • Practical helps for establishing intentional rhythms of family discipleship
  • Excerpts and applications drawn from the pastoral insights of Benjamin Keach
  • Space to consider how Scripture shapes everyday parenting and teaching practices
