Produktbeschreibung
J. C. Ryle was an acclaimed 19th century English Anglican bishop, prolific author, and first bishop of Liverpool. Ryle was beloved by many all over the world for his kind manner of preaching and his many works are full of his welcoming and affectionate tone. Ryle's message of faithfulness and love was meant for everyone, both those who have been practicing their faith for decades and those new to religion, regardless of their age or social class. His straightforward and caring style was widely credited with bringing a renewed sense of spirituality to the working classes of England. First published in 1888, "The Duties of Parents" is Ryle's enduringly popular and useful guide for parents to help them introduce their children to Christ. Organized around seventeen simple and profound responsibilities that Christian parents have to their children, Ryle shows parents how to guide their children's faith through actions, words, and examples and how to use love, the most important part of the parent-child relationship, to shape the future of the next generation. Over a century after it was first published, "The Duties of Parents" remains an encouraging and practical guide for every loving parent hoping to raise devout and responsible children. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

Autorenporträt
John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) graduó de Eton y Oxford en Inglaterra y quería seguir una carrera en la política. Pero debido a la falta de fondos, entró en el clero de la Iglesia de Inglaterra. Era contemporáneo de Spurgeon, Moody, Mueller y Taylor. Además, leyó los libros de los grandes teológicos como Wesley, Bunyan, Knox, Calvin y Lutero. Todos éstos influyeron a Ryle y contribuyeron a su entendimiento y teología. Ryle empezó a escribir primero un librito informativo después de que ocurrió la tragedia del puente colgante Great Yarmouth, donde se ahogaron más de cien almas. Se reconocía como predicador directo y por predicar el evangelismo. Viajaba, predicaba, y escribió más de 300 folletos, libritos informativos y otros libros, incluso Pensamientos expositivos de los evangelios (Expository Thoughts on the Gospels) y Líderes cristianos del siglo XVIII (Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century). Aunque usó sus ganancias de autor para pagar las deudas de bancarrota de su padre, consideró esa ruina la voluntad de Dios porque cambió la dirección de su vida. El primer ministro Benjamín Disraeli recomendó que fuera designado el Obispo de Liverpool donde cumplió este puesto hasta 1900.
