How Children Raise Parents
$17.00Parenting with Humility…We often realize that we learn as much from our children as they learn from us. So why don’t parents approach the task of child-rearing as a learning experience, rather than a mandate to make sure their kids succeed in life?
To reduce the pressure and enjoy greater closeness in your family, turn your parenting upside-down by allowing God to use your children to help you grow up. Imagine what would happen if you began to prize what you’re being taught by your children’s quirks, failures, and normal childhood dilemmas, rather than worrying about whether you’re doing everything right as a parent. Now you can let go of the pressure to make sure your children succeed, and instead learn to grow into spiritual maturity by listening to your children. –This text refers to the Hardcover edition

How To Keep Your Kids On Your Team
$19.99“It’s not what you think that will impact your child; it’s what you communicate.” What are you telling your kids? Are you telling them that their crises are trivial and their ideas are foolish? Probably not in so many words, but you may be communicating just that with your lack of interest in the day-to-day activities of your child. To keep your children on your team, Charles Stanley asserts, you must assure them from the start that you are on theirs. Focusing on the parental role as one of stewardship rather than ownership, Stanley instructs parents on how to ingrain a sense of personal accountability to God into the minds of children at an early age. By doing so, parents can raise confident, self-controlled kids who will hold fast to the values they instill.

To Prepare Or To Protect
$20.61Books on how to be good parents fly off bookstore shelves by the millions. Daytime talk shows are filled with advice on how to raise children. Troubled parents need not look very far to find parenting advice. Still, teenage violence, domestic abuse, depression, and suicide remain disturbingly high. Perhaps we need to find a way to merge contemporary parental concerns with the teachings of God. The battle cry in many churches today is one of segregation, building a wall between our children and a dangerous world. The problem is that children see the world as a vast place of opportunity, not as an evil fortress waiting to devour them. Parents consequently are torn between advice to shield and protect their children from the world and allowing children to make mistakes to find their way. To Prepare or Protect offers parents a direction that removes this either/or dilemma. The book’s aim is to help parents recognize and teach their children timeless principles that will prepare them for life in a world that is not always perfect. Most importantly, parents will learn to enjoy their children in a way they only dreamed possible, and will develop a greater confidence that their children will be able to forge a productive path for themselves through a difficult world.

When God Became Apparent
$20.61When a parent dies during a child’s growing-up years, the change is monumental. An alternate shaping of life and self begins; an influence is lost; the creation of memories is halted. Living with the loss from that point on means living a new way of life. Life is so significantly shaped by the loss that other forces often pale by comparison. The reader will often be moved to tears by the heartfelt insights of adults who experienced the early death of a parent-a parent that cannot be present at graduations, weddings, births, and everyday conversations-a parent that is not available to give advice or be a grandparent. Woven throughout this very personal book are Dr. Darren Daugherty’s own insights from the early loss of his father and the recognition of God’s grace. Darren’s book will help readers to understand this loss and those who live with it. It also offers hope to anyone connected to the early loss of a parent. Included at the end of each chapter are suggestions for surviving parents who desire to help their children through the loss.

Upside Down Marriage
$16.86Just for fun let’s view our marriages like a coach would view building a successful athletic team… We have to decide whether or not we are going to be spectators or players. Watching a basketball game is fun. Attending a pep rally for our favorite team is exciting. Having season tickets is nice. But this is one game we do not want to be sitting in the stands watching others play the game. We do not want to be on the sidelines cheering for our team or for our families. This is one game, one adventure we want to come away with sweat on our brow, dirt on our pants, soreness in our muscles, and a heart filled with excitement. We do not want to be left behind while other couples move ahead in their marriages. Marriage is the adventure of a lifetime. The game of all games. The sport of all sports. A healthy marriage, a healthy home is worth the price. It is worth the hard work. It is worth the sweat equity. It is one game we should not mind getting banged up and bruised. It is one game in which we do not want to miss the practices. We will become better husbands due to the hard work and the practicing.

Then God Created In Laws
$16.86Bob and his wife Kay have celebrated fifty years of marriage, and are blessed with five children, twelve grandchildren, and a great-granddaughter. The chapters in this book reflect many of the experiences and interpersonal relationships with in-laws during these fifty years. Both families had Christians and non-Christians, difficulties, misunderstandings, parents that needed to be cared for in old age, differences in family child-rearing practices, and brother and sister-in-law problems, along with the pressures of trying to maintain a Christian testimony through it all. Since their marriage, Bob and Kay have been active in church. Bob has been teaching in Sunday school, children’s church, and a Bible institute. His experience includes serving as a deacon and being involved in many ministries of the church. A particular concern of his has been encouraging young couples in their Christian growth. Bob is a graduate of the United States Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, Long Island, New York, where he majored in marine mechanical engineering. After serving as a marine engineer aboard several ships and traveling to many countries, he was involved in engineering of steam production systems. In 1983 he formed the Robert L. Bruce Company as an engineering consulting firm. The impetus for this book began several years ago as a request for Bob to speak at a grandparent day where his grandchildren attended. Since that beginning, he has interviewed and conducted surveys with in-laws of all ages, defining the concerns that needed to be addressed. Teaching and counseling young couples confirmed the need for scriptural instruction beginning before the marriage right through the latter days of grandparenting. Bob has reviewed the basics of this book with capable Christian people from many walks of life for their comments and input to help make it scripturally applicable to a broad spectrum of Christians.

What Kids Wish Parents Knew About Parenting (Revised)
$15.95(When placing your order, please mention that this is a Lightining Source book.)
Best-selling author and family expert Joe White writes a sobering book for this most serious of times. Children are being exposed to dangers outside the home that most parents are unaware of until they accidentally find some shred of evidence-a cigarette butt, a half-smoked joint, or an obscene letter from an unknown lover. Kids are feeling lonely, ugly, unaccepted, and scared. While smiling on the outside, they often feel deserted on the inside-even by their parents.
White’s insights into parenting and what kids really want from their parents will change not only how Christians think about their families but how they treat and raise the priceless jewels God has placed in their care. This is not a feel-good, no brainer book. This is a convicting, how-to book on raising children in homes of faith, love, security, and commitment.

Marriage And Modernization
$34.99The process of modernization and globalization promise more wealth and health for many people. But they are also a threat to the stability and quality of marriage and family life. This new book-at once sobering and constructive-looks at the impact of these processes on marriage and asks what Christianity, in cooperation with other religions, can do to strengthen married life today. Among the deleterious effects of modernization and globalization on marriage are a worldwide drift of men away from the responsibility of parenthood and the tendency of mothers too readily to take on the task of childrearing alone. After looking at recent research on these and other problems, Don Browning suggests that the cure for modern marital disruption entails reforming and reconstructing the institution of marriage while also nurturing relevant forms of social support. Yet the effort to initiate a “world marriage revival” requires a complex cultural work, and Browning explores the key contributions that the religions of the world must make for such an effort to be successful.
