Discipling children requires intentional tools, and great literature serves as a powerful method for shaping a biblical worldview. In this episode, Dr. Josh and Jen Mulvihill discuss how reading aloud can help your family grow closer to Christ. They explain that the Bible is the foundational book for every home, and all other literature should be read in light of its ultimate truth.

Great books expand our vision, teach clear morality, and properly prepare the next generation for the realities of the world. The Mulvihills explore the mandate to replace screens with meaningful stories that captivate the imagination. They also address the common question of whether Christian families should read fantasy and fairy tales, drawing wisdom from authors like C.S. Lewis to show how these specific stories build courage.

Tune in to discover practical ways to make reading a joyful routine in your home. Josh and Jen also share their current reading lists, including helpful recommendations for parents and an exciting summer book club idea for children. Embrace the stewardship of your child’s mind by filling your shelves with excellent stories that point directly to the gospel.
