God has designed each family to be a culture. It is the duty of the father to ensure that the shaping takes place according to biblical wisdom. Through the Messiah, God promised blessings to his people, "their children, and their children's children forever". The norm for faithful members of the covenant is that their children will follow them in their faithfulness. The oddity should be children who fall away. Unless we reestablish faithful Christian culture in countless homes, we will never reestablish it anywhere else.

The narrator was good.
The author says some questionable things, he really believes if a child does not follow the Lord it is always completely the parent's fault.
I understand parents often are more responsible for bad behavior than we would like to admit but his position comes across as way too radical and unnuanced. His interpretation of Proverbs as promises is questionable and his interpretation of 1st Tim. 3:4-5 would be considered highly questionable by most evangelical pastors.
However, the book gets practical after chapter 7 and a lot of the advice is quite helpful. plenty of it seems well experienced. Sadly, somehow, the practical advice he gives generally comes off better than when he tries to talk about scripture passages. A very mixed book that I wish was published in two parts so I could just recommend the 2nd part.
