Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes

Written by Voddie Baucham Jr.

Narrated by Preston Butler, III

Christian Book Award Finalist - Audio - 2022!!!

It’s hard to overestimate the importance of the family, and that of fathers in particular. We’ve heard it said, “As the family goes, so goes the nation.” But it can also be said that “as the father goes, so goes the family.” Consequently, Voddie Baucham has set out to teach men how to faithfully shepherd their families.

Derived from Baucham’s monthly meetings with men in his church, Family Shepherds calls men to accountability for their God-given responsibilities in their homes. Baucham’s clear style and practical approach will spur men to protect their marriage, raise kingdom-minded children, value the synergy between church and home, and navigate difficult family dynamics.

Family Shepherds is a book for any husband or father looking to lead well, and it will serve as an excellent resource for churches looking to equip the men in their congregations.

Reviews for Family Shepherds

[Billy Haren · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Ever man should read it especially if he has a family!! Biblical insight on how to lead the way God wants from His Word!

[Elton Perdomo · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Fantastic. Every man who seeks to lead his home in a way that honors God should read this...probably multiple times.

[Joseph Kibuchi · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book offers solid advice on not just why a father should lead his family to God but also how.

[James Swanson · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is an exceptional work on a often overlooked aspect of life. Voddie does not rant about his own feelings nor lament without hope over the sate of families but he opens God’s word. From the word of God he shows how men can lead their homes as a “family shepherd”.

The book is very readable and practical but also satisfying deep and biblically sound.

The only difficulty with book is realizing how one has missed the mark and working out how to faithfully apply the teaching!
