    <![CDATA[This book is not about discipline, nor problem children. The emphasis is on the training of a child before the need to discipline arises. It is apparent that most parents never attempt to train a child to obey. They wait until the child becomes unbearable and then explode. With proper training, discipline can be reduced to 5% of what many now practice. As you come to understand the difference between training and discipline, you will have a renewed vision for your family&#151;no more raised voices, no contention, no bad attitudes, fewer spankings, a cheerful atmosphere in the home, and total obedience from your children.  <p>A couple, stressed out with the conflict of three young children, after spending the weekend with us and hearing some of these principles, changed their strategy. One week later, they exclaimed, &quot;I can't believe it; we went to a friend's house, and when I told my children to do something, they immediately, without question, obeyed.&quot;  <p>These truths are not new, deep insights from the professional world of research, rather, the same principles the Amish use to train their stubborn mules, the same technique God uses to train his children.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[Soon after the publication of &quot;To Train Up a Child&quot; the Pearls began receiving far more mail than they could answer. So they started a newsletter called &quot;No Greater Joy&quot; to answer the most often asked questions. Receiving continual requests for back issues of the newsletter, the Pearls decided to reprint in book form the child training articles from the first two years. These articles add to the foundation already laid in &quot;To Train Up a Child,&quot; coving new terrain and clarifying previously mentioned topics.]]>

    <![CDATA[God created his children as sexual opposites, and designed marriage to be the context of erotic pleasure. While the church has been mostly silent on the subject of sex, the world and the devil have attempted to make it their domain. The church has rightly proclaimed biblical prohibitions on the misuse of sex, but it has failed to speak out on the godliness of erotic pleasure in the context of marriage. Out of 66 books composing the Bible, one whole book is dedicated to promoting erotic pleasure - Song of Solomon. Michael Pearl takes his readers through a refreshing journey of Biblical texts. This sanctifying look at the most powerful passion God ever created will free the reader from false guilt and inhibition.]]>

    <![CDATA[Before there was a beginning; before the first man was created; before the earth, the sun, the stars, even before the light and time were created, there was God. He alone existed without beginning, but he was not lonely. He communed with himself in a perfect trinity of love. But God wanted to share his life. He wanted friends and neighbors. The Bible tells us in eternity past God created numerous kinds of angelic beings to offer praise around his throne but this is not their story.<br/><br/>This is the story of God working with mankind.]]>

    <![CDATA[While most ministers avoid the subject, Michael Pearl addresses the deadly scourge of pornography head-on. He shows how repentance toward God and the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ can break the bondage of this wicked perversion through the abundant mercy and grace of a loving God. There is hope for the man caught in the snare of pornography and hope for the helpless, angry wife who finds it difficult to honor him.]]>
