This website was designed to help you access resources which, we
pray, will encourage you and inspire you to live your life - between
Sundays - as God would have you live.
Whether it be in raising children, marriage and relationships or
budgeting and finances, there
are some fantastic ideas and methods which are tried and true, and
are available here for you to access.
Too often we struggle through our daily lives, too embarrassed or
scared to admit that we don't have all the answers. We weren't meant
to journey alone, so as you look through these pages, please don't
hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or feedback.
Located in Tennessee, USA, 'No Greater Joy' is the
ministry of Michael & Debi Pearl under the auspices of No Greater
Joy Ministries Inc. Michael has been a pastor, missionary, and
evangelist for 40 years. The Pearls have 5 children, all home
schooled. They have grown up to become missionaries and church
leaders. Though holding a BS from Crichton College, when Michael is
asked for his credentials on child training he points to his five
children.
Through books and tapes, the Pearls are training parents to break
the bad habits passed down from former generations and to recognize
and emulate the wisdom of those who have gone before. The Bible and
common sense are the foundations for effective parenting.
The Pearls' first book on child training, To Train Up A Child,
was published in August 1994. To date, over 450,000 have been
printed in English. Since 1994 it has also been translated into many
foreign languages. In response to the many letters and questions,
the Pearls publish a bimonthly, 24-page magazine, 'No Greater
Joy'. Also, a variety of books and tapes have been produced and
made.
