Redoing Recess : Great Games To Get Kids Moving
$10.99Add to cartThis book started as a Recess Activity Manual that was written as part of a project for one of my classes during the time I was in school.

All Pro Dad
$19.99Add to cartGentlemen, this is a football, Vince Lombardi famously told his players at the beginning of each season. Just as knowing the fundamentals of football is the key to a player becoming an All-Pro, knowing the fundamentals of fatherhood is the key to a father becoming an All Pro Dad. The most important fundamental of fatherhood starts with one word-love. Love isn’t weak; it’s strong. If a father wants to lead well in his home, he must expand his capacity to love. All Pro Dad is a journey with Mark Merrill-husband of more than 20 years, father of five children, and the president of Family First. Mark’s journey includes exclusive, one-on-one, in-depth interviews with approximately 20 well-recognized leaders who share their personal stories and wisdom. These influential leaders understand the “7 M’s”-Makeup, Master, Mission, Message, Motive, Method, and Model-that each man must know about himself to truly love and lead his family. This journey and exploration is for parents, especially fathers, who want to lead and love their families and need practical ways to do so.

Father Hunger : Why God Calls Men To Love And Lead Their Families
$19.99Add to cartWe live in a culture in which absentee fatherhood is the norm. Pastor and parenting authority Douglas Wilson brings a powerful message about its true costs to our families and society and encourages men to be the fathers God calls them to be. When we hear the word fatherless, our minds usually turn to orphans, to children who have lost their fathers to tragic accidents. For most of us, that seems to be a problem outside our own families, a painful reality with which others must deal. “Not so,” says Douglas Wilson. “Most of our families are starving for fathers, even if Dad is around, and there’s a huge cost to our children and our society because of it.” Why Fathers Really Matter is a thoughtful and timely excursion into our culture of fatherlessness, what Wilson calls “the central malady of our time.” Central because it is the cause of so many of the ills we face-everything from atheism and crime to joyless feminism and paternalistic government expansion-but most important because of the effect it has on families, children, wives, and husbands. Bottom line: when fathers are checked out, left out, or ruled out, it hurts literally everyone.
We need our fathers, and all too often they are nowhere present. Indispensible Dad has one basic goal: to encourage and empower men to be the fathers that God calls them to be and that their families and culture desperately need them to be.

No Easy Choice
$24.00Add to cartIn No Easy Choice, Ellen Painter Dollar tells her gut-wrenching story of living with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)-a disabling genetic bone disorder that was passed down to her first child-and deciding whether to conceive a second child who would not have OI using assisted reproduction. Her story brings to light the ethical dilemmas surrounding advanced reproductive technologies. What do procedures such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) say about how we define human worth? If we avoid such procedures, are we permitting the suffering of our children? How do we identify a “good life” in a consumer society that values appearance, success, health, and perfection?
Dollar considers multiple sides of the debate, refusing to accept the matter as simply black and white. Her book will help parents who want to understand and make good decisions about assisted reproduction, as well as those who support and counsel them, including pastors and medical professionals.

Does God want to write your love story? Well, maybe not-especially not if it is the culture’s romanticized ideal of happily ever after! Margaret and Dwight Peterson help us sort out the difference between how our surrounding society often depicts marriage and how Christians really should approach this particular gift of God to all humanity. They guide us through many aspects of a growing, maturing marriage including being a family, handling conflict, friendship, children, household economics and weathering the transitions of life. In the end they show how Christian marriage is far deeper and stronger than a romantic fairy tale. In fact, it reflects the kind of love God has for us in the gospel of Jesus Christ who gave his life for us that we might have his life in us. -
