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!

They are often expensive

The selection of quality narrations (of free or inexpensive good books) is limited
Previewing books is difficult
Listening time for borrowed audiobooks is limited
Not all audio recordings are made equal
