Summary: Overall, a very thought provoking and upbeat book...
Comment: but please remember, fellow Christians, that you are reading one human couple's interpretation of Scripture. Like the rest of us (come on, let's admit it) they have an agenda and the whole book, including their interpretation of Scripture, is funneled through the filter of their agenda.
That said, I would certainly recommend this book as it exposes us to something we all need: awareness of the diminishment of the family in our culture, even in the church (I mean that in both a figurative and literal sense), and then the contrast which is found in God's word. The most important thing I got from this book was the uplifted feeling of how important children, my role as a mother, and the family unit are to God.
Other than occasionally slipping into the role of conscience-dictator (a job which belongs exclusively to the Holy Spirit) Hess' writing style is overall humourous and compassionate. It opened my eyes for some things to pray that God, not Rick Hess, would clarify further in my own heart as I continue to walk with Him.

Summary: Will drastically challenge your way of thinking about kids!
Comment: This book challenges the very heart of parenting. It forces you to either see children as blessings and gifts from God or as necessary burdens we must bear in this life to somehow prolong our names. After reading this book, my husband and I not only had a different outlook toward our own children (and as to how many we have), but it also gave us a new outlook on children in general. I think all Christian couples should read this book to help balance the perspective of childbearing we have received in a world that tries to pawn our children off to others as their responsibility.
Rating: 1
Summary: Misguided and judgmental
Comment: This book, whilst sincere and helpful in small parts, is sincerely misguided. Errors in Scriptural interpretation and logic abound.
On top of that, the authors suggest that if you don't agree with their opinion you are going against God's will and may not even be truly saved.
A truly scary book.
