RUN & JUSTINE'S BOOK IS NY TIMES BESTSELLER: 'Take Back Your Family' offers parental advice based on experience.
*"Take Back Your Family," a new book by reality show stars Rev. Run and Justine Simmons, entered the New York Times’ list of best selling Hardcover Advice books this week in the number 15 position.
The married couple's first joint book offers parental guidance based on the same principals they use to raise their own children.
“My whole show is a ministry,” Rev. Run, born Joseph Simmons, told AllHipHop.com of his series "Run's House" on MTV. “I don’t have a church that I’m the pastor of. So in my mind, I’m a very untraditional reverend. And my pulpit just happens to be MTV, which is a very different type of congregation."
Included in the book are lessons like “Run your family as the COEs: Chief Officers of Everything; Lead by example, not by preaching;'" and what Run considers the most important lesson of all: “When they get older it’s not time to back out, it’s time to push further in their life.”
“That’s the time when they need mentoring the most, and they need love the most when they get older," Run told AllHipHop.com. "Some parents might think it’s time to cut the strings, I think it’s time to get closer. These are when they’re making the biggest decisions of their life.”
