The Thirteenities: Leading Tweens to Lives of Greatness and Goodness
Martti Pajunen
The Thirteenities is a book for parents of tweens; children ages nine to twelve, who are at that critical pre-adolescent stage of life.
Starting with the principal value of maturity, and the secondary values of responsibility, integrity, and authenticity, the book assists parents in understanding the meaning of these values, how they can live them out, and how to lead their children to live them out as well.
This innovative approach to parenting allows parents the freedom to be released from the “punishment and reward” model of raising children, and step into a fresh perspective of developing their character. The Thirteenities is like a pre-season coaching manual, assisting parents to strategically prepare for the adolescent years.
The book and supplementary teaching is not a quick fix or three-step program … it is a transformational approach to parenting that begins with changing our mindset as parents, not just trying to change our children.
The Genesis Genealogies: God's Administration in the History of Redemption (Book 1)
Abraham Park
A fundamental part of understanding one's ancestors is knowing when they were born, how long they lived, and when they died. Here in The Genesis Genealogies lies that crucial core information about the forebears of Christianity.
Rev. Abraham Park has meticulously analyzed the information in The Book of Genesis. Taking the explicit date references in Genesis and performing math calculations forward and backward in time, he builds a complete chronological Biblical timeline from Adam to the Exodus, including the duration of construction of Noah's ark. With this Bible study of the cornerstone text of The Old Testament, we can more deeply understand the layers of meanings that Genesis offers. The Genesis Genealogies is a must-have for every Church Library.
This title is part of The History of Redemption series which includes:
Book 1: The Genesis Genealogies
Book 2: The Covenant of the Torch
Book 3: The Unquenchable Lamp of the Covenant
Book 4: God's Profound and Mysterious Providence
Book 5: The Promise of the Eternal Covenant

God Made All Your Feelings

An illustrated book that explores the wide variety of emotions that kids experience and gently reassures them that it is okay to feel these feelings and that God is with them through all the ups and downs. Filled with a sweet text and colourful illustrations, this book helps to affirm the message that all our emotions help us to grow and that no matter what we are feeling, God always loves us. Recommended for ages 5 to 8 years.
