Book 101 Review in its Fifth season, featuring Cecil Taylor Teaching Christians How to Live a Seven-Day Practical Faith as my guest.

Episode description and notes

Cecil Taylor Teaching Christians How to Live a Seven-Day Practical Faith I have a mission to teach Christians how to live a seven-day practical faith. As a preacher's kid and as a long-time Sunday School teacher of adults, I kept hearing people say, "I can do this Christian stuff on Sundays, but it's hard for me to do it the rest of the week." I eventually felt a call to go outside my own church to share the gospel in new ways, urging Christians into a deeper level of following Jesus, through books, videos, speaking, blogs, podcasts, and more. Let me divide potential podcast topics into two: (1) parenting (2) putting faith into practice. Parenting is always a hot topic, and I'm well-prepared to discuss it. Besides raising three children (one adopted from China) to adulthood, my background includes teaching Christian parenting classes to 700 families in my church over a 15-year period. I was able to share proven parenting techniques along with things I had picked up along the way, watching families put my suggestions into practice, and getting real-time feedback. It has made me more confident in the material in "Unison Parenting." I also worked as both a volunteer and staff leader with the youth ministry of my churches for more than 30 years. Not only did I get to know teens very well, witnessing the changes and the similarities in teens over time, but I also observed the results of various parenting styles. This experience informs the second half of "Unison Parenting," which is focused on the teen years. Since I wrote the book, I have continued studying parenting and talking to parents, leading to new thoughts and techniques such as "Lean In, Not Away" to deal with what I call "opposition parenting."
