GRAND PARENTHOOD MORE THAN ROCKING CHAIRS FACILITATOR'S GUIDE Many grandparents want to use their position to make life-changing differences in their grandchildren. You can, too! This eight-part study is designed to equip you to be an even more strategic grandparent than you already are. All of us seem to improve our individual lives when we make a commitment to invest in others. This study is designed to help you see not only the "big picture" of grandparenting, but specific ways your life can impact each grandchild whom God has given to you to love. As you go through this study, individual grandchildren are going to come to mind. You're going to think of ways that you can better fulfill your role as a mentor, leader, and ally to that grandchild. These thoughts might be prompted by something we say in the visual portion of the study or something that surfaces during the interactive discussion that follows. Our hope is that God will use these specific thoughts to encourage and inspire you to take action to be the most effective grandparent possible.

Grand Parenthood: More Than Rocking Chairs Facilitator's Guide

Dr. Tim & Darcy Kimmel

Basic Training For a Few Good Men presents scriptural principles to empower men to 'stand in the gap' and be 'watchmen on the wall' before the Lord for their families. The challenges that men are facing in our culture today are staggering. Many men feel lost, without a solid moral compass. They feel helpless as to what position they are to play in a society that is constantly changing. Basic Training is a crash course in character. It's a no-holds barred study of the things that turn men of faith into men of God. In each session, Tim Kimmel shows men how they can flourish at work, draw the best out of their wives, make it easy for their kids to look up to them and find it a joy to serve in God's army.

The High Cost of High Control

How will you teach your children courage? They need it. You sense that already. The choices your kids face are much tougher than the ones you wrestled with--the evil more flagrant, society more corrupt, the pressure to conform more intense. At the outside, you have about fifteen years to prepare them, maybe less. They’ll need courage or frankly, they may not make it. Without a plan, you won’t either. Through inspiring stories, practical teaching and hefty doses of common sense, veteran family advocate Tim Kimmel charts a course your family can follow. No, it won’t happen the same way in every home. But your investment in preparation will pay off when the heat’s on. It’s the most strategic investment you may ever make. Includes questions for small group study.
