⚔️ Do you long to inspire your children with stories of heroes in history and with the greatest story ever told--the word of God? 🛠️ Do you want to equip your children for life in the world, so that they’ll have wisdom and understanding as they face the challenges in whatever work God calls them to? 👨👩👧👦 Do you desire to live and learn together with your family, using good books and real-life experiences to build relationships that will last a lifetime? In this podcast, you’ll find real-life tips and recommendations for books our homeschooling family loves, and discussions of how we as dads can make it easier to read to and with our children. My mission is to equip you with hope and help as you seek to train your children in God’s way and lead your family, relying first on the Bible and then learning from the wealth of great books that are available for the taking. If you’re ready to uncover instructional, inspiring books to read to and with your family, to build strong family relationships by reading, talking and living together, and to prepare your children for life and eternity with great books & activities, then join us for Treasure Box Books! Hi, I’m Nathan Ching, a redeemed child of God, happy husband and homeschooling dad, and lifelong lover of good books. For years--even before I became a father--I eagerly looked forward to leading my children to know, love, and serve God. As a young man, I realized that reading, beginning first with the Bible, then other books, unlocked my understanding. The Old Testament prophet said, ”I Daniel understood by books….” When I prayed about how to train my children for God, I became convinced that reading to and with my children would be an essential element in helping them to delight in God and do His will. While I can’t claim to have perfected the art of leading my family, I am happy to say that the Lord has taught me practical, useful lessons--lessons I believe would serve other dads as they lead their families. That’s what this podcast is all about. There are treasures to be found in books that simply can’t be found anywhere else. Come join us on our journey, and let’s go find the treasures in books! 📖 Download free Bible audio: www.refreshpublishing.com/bible 🧑🏻💻 Visit the Website: www.treasureboxbooks.com 📩 Email Me: support@treasureboxbooks.com +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ https://feed.podbean.com/treasureboxbooks/feed.xml Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

002 | Spread a Feast of Knowledge

Hi, Fellow Dad!
Wouldn't you feel great if you could spread a nutritious, delicious feast for your family several times a week? You can--but with something other than food. On this episode of Treasure Box Books Podcast, we discuss some practical, simple ways you can do that, using books!
We're publishing this episode about a month before Thanksgiving, and I'm already feeling excited about digging in to the smorgasbord we set out for our family and guests each year. Thankfully (pun sort-of intended), in Hawaii we don't have to wait until Thanksgiving for big feasts, because a typical Hawaii church potluck--or any get together for practically any occasion--is a lot like a Thanksgiving feast (even though we call them by the not-so-exciting term "potluck").
In today's episode, we're going to think about ways we can spread a feast (of instruction and inspiration) for our families.
Mahalo no ka hoʻolohe ʻana i kēia lā!
(Hawaiian: Thanks for listening today!)
