Overview

IS OUR GOAL TO RAISE RELIGIOUS KIDS, OR ARE WE HOPING FOR SOMETHING MORE? Our kids are growing up in a mass church exodus. A life attending church and following religious rules isn't big enough to hold their attention-and why should it be? Do we want our kids to just go to church, or do we want them to truly follow Jesus? As Christian parents, most of us long for our children to know the God who loves them and who is able to work powerfully in their lives and in the lives of those around them. Missional leader and father Hugh Halter invites your family to live a bigger story-a story with the mission of God at its heart. With key tools and practical advice gleaned from Hugh's own parenting journey, Righteous Brood equips parents at all stages-and with all kinds of challenges-to nurture disciples of Jesus who live out his mission in the world.

Righteous Brood should be included in every microchurch and traditional church training. Microchurch life is solely based on doing the mission of God as an extended spiritual family, and Hugh has given us a manual and a devotional for how to do it and how not to do it. -ROB AND MICHELLE WEGNER, leaders of Kansas City Underground; North American regional director, NewThing; co-author, The Starfish and the Spirit I have known the Halters for over twenty years, and they are the real deal! They have lived out the principles in this book and as a result have created a family that truly lives on mission. Righteous Brood is a must-read for any family that desires to have a positive impact, both inside and outside of their home. This book is filled with practical ideas that will help parents foster healthy missional rhythms. The church desperately needs the perspective that Righteous Brood gives to those who aim to follow Jesus. -LAUREN AND DAVE RUNYON, co-founder and director of CityUnite; co-author, The Art of Neighboring: Building Genuine Relationships Right Outside Your Door; parents of four children Hugh has been a consistent voice in the missional conversation. Not only is he a thought leader, but he's also an amazing practitioner. Righteous Brood is an important book that shows us how to have the posture of Jesus, as a family, and be the church where we live, work, learn, and play. -BILL COUCHENOUR, director of deployment, Exponential Network Hugh and Cheryl have learned to raise kids by creating a family ethos, where they love their neighbor, exhibit the kingdom, and live in the messiness of life with others. What you hold in your hand is not a prescription for parenting but culture-building principles that steward and disciple young Jesus-people. If parenting is more art than science, then this book gives you the tools, colors, and creativity to begin painting the young canvases you are helping to create. -L. ROWLAND SMITH, national director, Forge America Mission Network; director, Pando Collective; author, Life Out Loud: Joining Jesus Outside the Walls of the Church Righteous Brood is the book I would have loved to have when we began our missional journey as a family. It unapologetically unpacks the challenges of family life in today's world and provides a clear, concise, and practical toolkit for any family wanting to join God in his mission in the world. -BREE MILLS, mother; coach; speaker; director and founding partner, Micro Churches Australia; leader, The Village, Melbourne, a microchurch network church plant
