Today Barnabas Piper’s book The Pastor’s Kid: Finding Your Own Faith and Identity
is being released. Being the son of John Piper (who wrote the forward),
he draws on his own experience of growing up as a PK. Pastors who want

provides several quotes from many other PKs, too, representing a
broader perspective on being raised in a minister’s family than just
his own.
