A Powerful Approach to Bringing God's Grace to Kids Did you know that the way we deal (or don't deal) with our kids' misbehavior shapes their beliefs about themselves, the world, and God? Therefore it's vital to connect with their hearts--not just their minds--amid the daily behavior battles. With warmth and grace, Jim and Lynne Jackson, founders of Connected Families, offer four tried-and-true keys to handling any behavioral issues with love, truth, and authority. You will learn practical ways to communicate messages of grace and truth, how to discipline in a way that motivates your child, and how to keep your relationship strong, not antagonistic. Discipline is more than just a short-term attempt to modify your child's actions--it's a long-term investment to help them build faith, wisdom, and character for life. When you discover a better path to discipline, you'll find a more well-behaved--and well-believed--kid.

Book Description
In Reclaiming Church, J.J. Warren continues his call to reaffirm the Church be welcoming to all, including young people like those he led at Sarah Lawrence College who “didn’t know God could love them because their churches said God didn’t.” The book addresses three points of importance to young people looking to be part of a church community, and a call: 1. The identity and nature of God 2. The role of Scripture in discerning God’s call 3. The author’s own experience of God, church, and identity In the final chapter, “We Are the Church,” Warren focuses on practical and positive steps for joining voices, being heard, building bridges, and working together for young people to reclaim Church in their lives. Key Features • Affirms to the LGBTQ community and those who love them that the Church is for all. • Inspires younger progressive people to stay within the Church and work to renew the call of ministry. • Explores the Church’s beginnings and emphasis on community. • Calls readers to focus on practical and positive steps to reclaim Church in their lives.

Book Description
The Unaborted Children By: Roy J Chauvin Jr The author seems to place a dim view on the parenting skills of today’s parents. All parents struggle with decisions regarding their children, some have model children, who need little or no guidance, while other parents are tormented by their children’s mistakes and path. According to the author he was responding to God’s calling in caring for these children. He frequently called upon God for guidance, never giving up. Whether Christian or not, parents are obligated to care for their children. If they fail as parents, society suffers. Lack of respect, dignity and immorality only serves to create a chaotic imbalance in society, which has far-reaching negative consequences. Abortion is a very controversial and unnerving part of today’s world. Christians say abortion kills one of God’s greatest gifts, however, do all treat this gift as coming from God? Redundant questions seem to boggle the minds of all as God looks down. Christianity refers to people as God’s adopted children, yet many of these children are abandoned even by Christians. The author, in his small circle of children, pondered the question of abortion. Distasteful as it may be, these children are the unaborted children. Society, and Christians alike, have failed to heed God’s calling to care for these children. There should be no homes with eight of these unaborted children. Christians, who abhor abortion, should be lined up with outstretched arms to do God’s work. Don’t rationalize your excuse by saying, “I can’t do that.” What if Jesus said, “I can’t die on the cross.” Don’t tell the author and his wife they have a special place in heaven. They just responded to God’s calling. Are we truly listening to God’s plea? There you have it, a choice to accept God’s call, much like the mother’s decision to abort the child or not to abort the child…. God’s Gift of Love. AMEN
