How to Help Your Child Love Reading: Building a Christian Home Shaped by Great Books

Many parents want their children to love reading but feel unsure where to start. In this episode, Josh and Jen Mulvihill explain why a love for books does not begin with pressure or early academics, but with shared stories, patient guidance, and a family culture that values reading.

You will learn why reading aloud matters at every age, how waiting to teach reading can actually help struggling learners, and how parents model a lifelong love of books. Josh and Jen also discuss choosing books that shape imagination and worldview, encouraging physical books over screens, and using biographies and classic stories to build faith.

This conversation offers practical guidance for parents, homeschool families, and church leaders who want to raise children who love truth, think deeply, and grow in wisdom through great books.
