Building Christian Character

This is absolutely the best book out there for developing Christian Character in children. Building Christian Character examines 22 Scriptural elements of character and then gives examples of positive and negative character traits. Honor is contrasted with dishonor, responsibility with irresponsibility, etc. Each character trait is also divided into subcategories. Example: the positive trait of being responsible is divided into bringing a job to completion, working as unto the Lord, being diligent. Building Christian Character shows us and our children what it looks like when a child is showing scriptural character traits. And because a bad attitude can be comprised of so many different facets, we are shown that too. Not just for use within the classroom, a strong Sunday School program for elementary school age students could be developed by using this important book along with memory verses and a Bible study. This needs to be required reading for home educators and Christian School educators alike.
