Just Between Us
A shared journal between parent and child to facilitate difficult and awkward conversations about sensitive topics, feelings, and questions about sex.
Can be useful for parents who find it difficult to initiate conversations or for children who find it easier to write out their questions rather than ask them out loud. |
IDENTITY
How can we broach the subject of identity with young people today in a way that validates their feelings without ignoring truth? This study guide is designed for adults and students to do together; either in a home environment or student group setting.
Each week you will look at different sources people derive their identity from as well as filters people consider those sources through. The book starts with a discussion on the history of identity formation in the human race. The following weeks you will consider the various sources identity can come from, including groups you associate with, achievements, what makes you unique, sexuality, and finally identity in Christ. This holistic approach avoids the pitfalls of disagreement surrounding narrow views on identity. This book does not tell you how to view your identity, rather it provides a guide to discovering which sources of and voices into your identity you believe serve as the best foundation to build your identity on. |
Father-Son Accountability
Know you need to talk to your son about sexual integrity but you don’t know what to say? Worried that discussion about sex will strain your relationship with him? Concerned he might find out something about your past and lose respect?
These are the questions that drove me and my son to write this book in 2015 in the first place. Since then Lucas and I have learned a lot more about the kind of conversation about sex between a father and son build and strengthen relationship instead of strain it. Nearly a decade later Lucas and I have completely revised and updated Father-Son Accountability to make it an even more powerful tool for fathers and sons. These are eight, short lessons that the two of you read together, followed by clearly outlined discussions to keep your conversations on helpful and on track. A book by a father and son for fathers and sons to read together. |
Honest Talk
A guide for parents of children ages five to eighteen providing a new approach to help children safely navigate the hyper sexual culture we are immersed in. Honest Talk demonstrates a relational model that helps parents reduce anxiety around conversations about sex with their children. Based on years of work with therapists and pastors across the country, Honest Talk integrates a Biblical view of God’s design for sex with the latest information on what really helps children strive for sexual wholeness.
"Honest Talk is an essential tool for any parent who wants to prepare their children to safely navigate our current, sex obsessed culture." —Josh McDowell, speaker, author |
Honest Talk discusses the primary elements that help children move toward a resilient and healthy sexuality: understanding God’s design for sex, emotional awareness, and how to discuss specific topics at appropriate ages. Each chapter ends with two or three activities or conversation guides for parents to use with their children.
"Beyond merely having the right technical information, a genuine trust and emotional connection with your child is vital in sexual education. This book excels in giving exactly that kind of sound guidance."
