Whitcomb, John Clement, 1924-. The early earth : an introduction to Biblical creationism. 3. ed. rev. Winona Lake, IN : BMH Books, 2010.

The nature of biblical creation -- The creation of the universe -- The creation of plants and animals -- The creation of mankind -- Was the Earth once a chaos? -- Summary and conclusion. he Early Earth, first published in 1972, has established itself as one of the most illuminating books defending biblical creationism. It now appears in a revised and expanded edition. In this forceful sequel to The Genesis Flood and companion to The World That Perished by the same author, the case for biblical creationism is presented comprehensively, yet explained so clearly that the layperson, and even young people, can easily understand it. No verified and substantiated findings of science are rejected, but the author does discard every theory that contradicts the teaching of Scripture.

Brontë, Anne, 1820-1849. The tenant of Wildfell Hall. Harmondsworth ; : Penguin Books, 1994.

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a powerful and sometimes violent novel of expectation, love, oppression, sin, religion and betrayal. It portrays the disintegration of the marriage of Helen Huntingdon, the mysterious 'tenant' of the title, and her dissolute, alcoholic husband. Defying convention, Helen leaves her husband to protect their young son from his father's influence, and earns her own living as an artist. Whilst in hiding at Wildfell Hall, she encounters Gilbert Markham, who falls in love with her. On its first publication in 1848, Anne Brontës second novel was criticised for being 'coarse' and 'brutal'. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall challenges the social conventions of the early nineteenth century in a strong defence of women's rights in the face of psychological abuse from their husbands. Anne Brontë's style is bold, naturalistic and passionate, and this novel, which her sister Charlotte considered 'an entire mistake', has earned her a position in English Literature in her own right.

Evolution and logical fallacies : exposing weaknesses in the chain of reasoning. Hebron, KY : Answers in Genesis, 2009.

In addition to reviewing numerous logical fallacies, Dr. Lisle gives examples of how evolutionists often use fallacious arguments in arguing for their position. Learning to recognize these fallacies provides a whole new opportunity for defending the faith and arguing for the truth of creation."--AiG website.

Dobson, James C, 1936-. Educando meninas : como vencer o desafio de criar a nova geração de homens. São Paulo : Editora Mundo Cristão, 2013.

Os meninos são brutos, agitados, gostam de brincadeiras mais nojentas e radicais, são muito mais fortes que as meninas, não precisam de tantos cuidados. Pensando assim, muitos pais e mães acabam por negligenciar áreas importantes da educação de seus filhos, o que terá um reflexo negativo em seu futuro como homens, maridos e pais. A mídia bombardeia os garotos constantemente com influências negativas à formação de caráter. O forte apelo quanto à opção sexual é apenas um dos muitos desafios que os meninos enfrentam hoje. Além disso, ele precisam decidir cada vez mais cedo a carreira que irão seguir e que lhes proverá melhores rendimentos e ainda lidar com a autoafirmação diante dos amigos, o que tem levado muitos deles ao vicio no álcool, nas drogas, no sexo, tornando-os emocionalmente frágeis e psicologicamente abalados. Como fazer para que seu filho fique livre das tristes estatísticas? O dr. James Dobson aponta um norte na educação de seu menino e esclarece as dúvidas mais comuns sobre as questões biológicas, comportamentais e educacionais, tornando este livro um manual indispensável para a criação da uma nova geração de homens: fortes, íntegros e seguros.

Holmen, Mark. A fé começa em casa : restaurando a família com Cristo no centro. 1. ed. Pompéia : Universidade da Família, 2011.

Seus filhos seguirão os passos de quem? No passado, a fé, passada de geração a geração, era o foco central da família. Hoje, a realidade para muitas familias é que a fé não representa mais que uma hora de cristianismo em que os pais deixam os filhos à porta da igreja, quando muito. O que isso significa para a fé de nossos filhos? Como virão a conhecer a Cristo? E como a família pode colocar Cristo no centro de sua vida agitada? Mark Holmen sabe que o primeiro passo para que as famílias possam ser fortes e cheias de alegria, como Deus planejou, é dado pelos pais quando determinam que a família é o principal lugar onde a fé deve ser alimentada. Neste livro envolvente, você aprenderá sobre a importância do caminhar com o Senhor, também verá como usar os dons e as experiências dos avós, das pessoas mais velhas e dos mentores de seus filhos, além de definir qual papel a igreja deve desempenhar na família. Um verdadeiro tesouro com idéias práticas, histórias inspiradoras e verdades bíblicas, A Fé Começa em Casa inspira, motiva e equipa você para ajudar sua família a ser bem-sucedida.

Holmen, Mark. Praticando a fé em casa : um guia para capacitar pais a edificarem a fé no lar. 1. ed. Pompéia : Universidade da Família, 2012.

Praticando a Fé em Casa é um livro que dá suporte ao movimento Fé no Lar, uma iniciativa empolgante que busca auxiliar as igrejas, com abordagem integrada e completa, a desenvolverem um ministério voltado à família. Se desejamos que nossos filhos tenham a Palavra no coração, como orienta Deuteronômio, capítulo 6, a Igreja precisa estabelecer o lar como o ambiente primordial em que a fé é cultivada. Para isso, deve treinar e capacitar os pais a exercerem este papel vital.

Leman, Kevin. Transforme seu adolescente até sexta : conquiste o respeito, a confiança e o coração de seu filho em cinco dias. São Paulo : Mundo Cristão, 2012.

Anos de amor, carinho e atenção. Tempo e esforço dedicados a educar, formar caráter e ensinar boas maneiras. Os filhos pequenos são verdadeiros anjos em nossas vidas. De repente, os anjinhos entram em ebulição de hormônios, e todos os anos de educação e amor parecem ter sido em vão. Mas tudo pode voltar aos bons tempos em apenas uma semana. A adolescência é a fase mais difícil na vida de todo mundo, mas "esse tempo vai desaparecer mais rápido que areia numa ampulheta, então por que não tirar vantagem dele?" é a proposta do dr. Kevin Leman nesta obra. Viva a adolescência de seus filhos sabendo exatamente como agir e, em uma semana, todos em sua casa estarão lidando sem dor ou estresse com esta fase tão importante da vida.
