Thank you. I received your To Train Up a Child as a gift from a mother of 5…we respected their home so much as Sunday School Teachers to their daughters…

This Video just solidifies the JOY that God gives when children are brought up right…I have made many many poor choices as an adult, but this video just gave me such hope for my family.

Thank you for your ministry

What a breath of fresh air. Watching the controversy I felt disturbed by the way you were portrayed and felt shy in sharing your material. Thank you, thank you for taking the time to do this! Also, your sharing really helped me to see where I’ve been wrong and where I’ve been strong in training my children.

I’m old enough to remember Phil Donahue doing the same thing to people. He wouldn’t let anyone reveal the truth about a situation either. People like this, let you reveal the “truth” that they want to convey. It is far from the truth. Love you guys!

This is so encouraging.

By the way, Anderson Cooper recently disclosed: “The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud.”

This completely changed my marriage! I even grew up a pastor’s daughter and had not learned how to love, serve, or respect my husband. So first let me say thank you for that!!
Second, now that my children are getting older (3 & 5), my husband and I have been having difficulties with the children, and not really having good biblical guidelines to follow or glean from our childhoods. So I recently bought your book on child training, and have dove right in. Boy have I seen a difference!! Especially with my 3yr. old boy, I have seen a huge difference in just a matter of days! At 3, he is now listening more when asked the first time, and is more happy and giggly because I’m not raising my voice and exploding with anger or anything.
Just wanted to say thank you for providing my family with great tools that help us learn more in the Bible that we didn’t know was even there :) God Bless!!

I wanted to write to let you know that I appreciate that you took the time to share in the webinar.

We love you and support you and are so thankful for your ministry/books.

We actually sort of stumbled upon the “controversy” you are speaking of. We do not have television in our home but happened to be out to a restaurant where they had a TV on and I happened to look up and said, “Oh, that looks like Debi Pearl” and realized it was — I was so excited that we moved closer to see the closed captioning better, as the sound was not on. As we read and watched, we were so horried and infuriated and it was, to us, so obvious that it was nothing more than the godless, liberal media equivalent to a “witch-hunt”. I am saddened that you found little support among our Brothers and Sisters in Christ. I just wanted to tell you that there probably are alot of us that do support you all, but we all do not have television so we had no idea that was all going on. As I mentioned, we would have never known about any of it if we had not had our plans change and ended-up in the restaurant with the TV at the exact time the story was on. Honestly, normally, we do not even glance at the TVs when in places that have them that we visit and I just happened to glance up and recognize Debi’s sweet face, at the right time.

Doubly discouraging was the story that came just after yours, it struck fear in our hearts as this woman they dug up described the abuse she endured at the hands of her preacher-father from an Independant Fundamental Baptist background, of which we are as well. They made us sound like crazy cult members. Giving us the abbreviation IFB, it seems the media is very much on the war-path against those of us that are serious about our faith.

Anyway, my goal in writing was to offer encouragement — it was very obvious to anyone with a brain that they were pushing an agenda to stir up strife and anger against you, but really against us all as a community of believers/followers of Christ.

I will close with this — remember John 15:18 and 1 John 3:13.

You all really are in our prayers. Thank you for being fearless in the face of adversity and standing strong in the faith. We are grateful recipients of your God-given wisdom — thank you for sharing.

Best of blessings,
Tracy Pyland

As a child I grew in a hateful home without God. My parents did not train us, did not care for us. My five siblings and I were left to our own devices, and because my parents did not employ a training system like one laid out so sweetly in To Train Up A Child, my siblings and I have suffered greatly in the mistakes we have made and in the molestation perpetrated on us when there was no parent to protect us. To Train Up A Child has taught me to be an involved, loving, responsible, honorable parent to my children. My husband and I have three of the most well behaved children under the age of five. When my husband is deployed, my children are still pretty much little angels, and my best little buds. It is very clear that the book teaches parents many calming and loving techniques before spankings are ever needed. Your book has taught me to gently work with my boys in fun and happiness. Our five year old was teaching me today how to change oil in our van! Our three year old son helps to mop, fold laundry, clean bathrooms, and knows all the educational material that a kindergartener is expected to know. Our lives are so much happier when we stick to the principles of child training. Training is teaching; teaching children that we love them, what is safe for them, to have fun, and to love life. As a child there was a great amount of hate, anger, and sometimes violence in my life. My siblings and I all agree we wished we had been trained! Thank you so much for training me! You are like the parents to many people who never had ones that cared.
