The Spirit-Led Family: Welcoming God’s Presence into Your Home

The Spirit-Led Family is a thoughtful guide for Christian parents seeking to nurture their family’s spiritual growth by growing in their understanding of the third person of the Trinity.

What does the Holy Spirit have to do with family life? How does an understanding of his active presence transform your home and the way you disciple your children? If you struggle with answering these questions, you are not alone. Every family needs the help the Holy Spirit provides and yet we don’t really know how to relate to the Holy Spirit and are unsure how to teach our children who the Holy Spirit is—the Helper and Counselor, the mighty wind of God.

Marty Machowski helps parents become more deeply acquainted with the work of the Spirit so they can lead their children to understand his role in salvation, spiritual growth, and daily guidance. Families can experience his power in their daily lives, fostering a deeper connection with God and cultivating a home environment rooted in faith and love.

• Addresses the challenge many parents face in teaching their children about the person and work of the Holy Spirit.
• Includes Bible memory verses, action steps, and relatable stories to encourage families to experience God’s presence together.
• Encourages parents to model Spirit-led living, helping children witness and embrace a dynamic, personal relationship with God.

“Marty Machowski’s new book helps parents disciple their children to know the Holy Spirit and his work in our lives. The Spirit-Led Family is highly practical, biblically rooted, and gospel centered. Whether you are a cessationist or not, this resource will help you and your family explore ways to engage with the work of the Spirit in your lives.”
—Christina Fox, Author of Like Our Father: How God Parents Us and Why that Matters for Our Parenting

“As parents, some of the things we want for our children are beyond us—including their salvation and spiritual growth. Marty Machowski uses Scripture and personal stories to explain the Holy Spirit’s work and how to depend on him in everyday life. This book inspired me to pray more intentionally and talk with my children about the Spirit’s work.”
