Book Description
The heart-cry of every child without parents-a cry to be loved and to belong-told through the story of one boy named Jacob. For over two decades, Gary Stephens, his wife Helen, and their four biological children lived in Hong Kong. There they worked with Vietnamese refugees, then founded several homes for orphans and assisted with local and international adoptions. Later, their work spilled into mainland China, when they learned of baby girls being abandoned in alarming numbers, innocent victims of the one-child policy. Gary and Helen acted, helping to found an orphanage in a city in southern China. But the heart of this story is their son Jacob, who was born without eyes and subsequently abandoned. Underweight and sickly, two-year-old Jacob had lived in four different institutions before they found him and brought him to their home for children with special needs. They adopted him in 1998 and have spent the last sixteen years reclaiming what was lost in those first two. Waiting for a Father is a story of hope and reconciliation, of people who did not look away, who instead opened their hearts to a child who needed them. This inspiring message is a call to action: to help empty the orphanages of the world...one child at a time.

Book Description
Self-initiation is killing our young men. Without strong mentors, boys are walking alone into a wilderness of conflicting messages about who they should be as men. It's no wonder that our sons are confused about what the world expects from them and what they should expect of themselves. The Intentional Father is the antidote. This concise book is filled with practical steps to help men raise sons of consequence--young men who know what they believe, know who they are, and will stand up against the negative cultural trends of our day. Jon Tyson lays out a clear path for fathers and sons that includes specific activities, rites of passage, and significant "marking moments" that can be customized to fit any family. It's not enough to hope our sons will become good men. We need them to be good at being men. This book shows how fathers, grandfathers, and other male mentors can lead the way.

Book Description
This is the sixth book in the Twenty - Twenty vision series. The period known as the Tribulation is over. The surviving members of the group have been taken from Petra to Paradise, an area of heaven, where the group are being prepared and equipped for their roles in heaven. It is here that some of the biblical judgements take place. Occasionally the group meet up together, learning of their future roles as their heavenly Father reveals His future plans to them. When the new heaven and earth will be revealed. They will each play an important role in the running of the new earth, and their time in Paradise will be used to develop the gifts they have received earlier in their walk with the Lord. God reveals to those called to teach His word and also to those who have come into salvation during the last minutes of their lives on earth, and who know nothing of their Saviour, Jesus Christ. Teaching, that even for some of the more experienced bible teachers comes as a shock. Gods revelation of his plan comes as such a surprise that they realise they have much to learn from their Lord and Master in order to be equipped for their new roles. The joy of meeting up with loved ones who have long ago left the earth is a blessed time. Families are reunited. Children meet parents they had only heard about previously. Women meet up with their aborted babies; these are only some of the joys of heaven. Relationships that on earth were acrimonious are now healed; there is no anger, fear or hatred, pain or sorrow. Only love is in this new kingdom, here in Paradise the love of God flows unceasingly throughout the atmosphere. Each soul feels enveloped in His love, as their Lord comforts and heals them. Soon it will be time to leave this place of preparation and watch as the final acts described in Gods word, The Holy Bible take place. These are described in the final book in the series, The Warrior Bride Emerges.

Book Description
The author of Why Men Are the Way They Are demolishes conventional wisdom about the nature of fatherhood and shows how the courts, media, and government create subtle, immensely powerful undercurrents that separate men from their children. Anyone who cares about the nature of fatherhood today, anyone interested in the legal and emotional issues that divide fathers from children, anyone viewing fatherhood from the perspective of a journalist, social worker, or lawmaker, and any single, married, or divorced parent needs to read this thoughtful and engaging book.Dr. Warren Farrell argues--with surprising and convincing evidence drawn from court cases, law-enforcement records, national statistics, and therapeutic case studies--that the judicial system, media, and government often make dads "the enemy." Fathers enjoy no parenting rights within the legal system and even in other, less typically confrontational arenas--such as the public education system--a wide range of unreported forces divide fathers from their children.For all its explosive conclusions, Father and Child Reunion ultimately calls for a rejoining of families and of children with parents who can care for them. Dr. Farrell has written what may be the most significant book on a vital issue facing men, parents, and families today.
