How to Bring Your Children to Christ [Hardcover]

“How to Bring Your Children to Christ…& Keep Them There: Avoiding the Tragedy of False Conversion” by Ray Comfort is a practical guide for Christian parents seeking to raise their children with a genuine and enduring faith in Jesus Christ. The book tackles false conversion, where individuals profess faith without genuine understanding or commitment, resulting in superficial belief.

Comfort begins by emphasizing the importance of ensuring that children understand the gospel message deeply and personally. He emphasizes that merely growing up in a Christian environment or attending church doesn’t ensure a genuine relationship with Christ. The book warns of false conversion when children profess faith without understanding sin, repentance, or the need for a Savior.

To help parents guide their children toward authentic faith, Comfort provides biblical principles and practical advice. He urges parents to teach their children about God’s holiness, the gravity of sin, and the need for repentance. The book emphasizes using the Ten Commandments to help children understand their need for salvation and present the gospel effectively.

Comfort also discusses the importance of ongoing discipleship and spiritual nurturing. He advises parents to model true Christian living, pray regularly for their children, and maintain a daily faith-driven home. The book stresses patience and perseverance, acknowledging that true conversion is the Holy Spirit’s work and may take time.

“How to Bring Your Children to Christ…& Keep Them There” is not only a guide for leading children to Christ but also a resource for helping them grow in their faith over the long term. Comfort’s approach is rooted in Scripture and designed to equip parents with the tools they need to avoid the tragedy of false conversion and to raise children who genuinely know, love, and follow Jesus Christ.
