The overall objective of 40 Things is to provide parents with a concise and powerful resource intended to help educate and inform their teen-age/young-adult children on a number of what I as a father consider to be the most important spiritual/biblical truths on a number of vital topics, i.e., life, marriage, truth, the law, the purpose of government, salvation. 40 Things is primarily intended to combat/refute the predominant and popular teachings and philosophies of secular humanism, post-modernism, moral relativism and universalism so pervasive today (sadly even in many Christian circles) and to empower/encourage the next generation to think and act biblically. I am also hoping that the same parents who purchase the book for their kids will also purchase it for any unsaved, skeptical or backslidden family/friends to lead them to the truth of the Gospel.

Do you believe your struggle with anger stems from the wrong behavior you see displayed in your children? The knee-jerk reactions and blow-ups you're facing are often a result of a bigger set of "triggers." Some of these are external, like a child's disobedience, backtalk, or selective hearing, while others are internal, like an overflowing schedule, sleep-deprivation, or perhaps your own painful experiences from childhood. Triggers: Exchanging Parent's Angry Reactions for Gentle Biblical Responses examines common parenting issues that cause us to explode inappropriately at our children. Moving beyond simple parenting tips on how to change your child's behavior, authors Amber Lia and Wendy Speake offer biblical insight and practical tools to equip and encourage you on the journey away from anger-filled reactions toward gentle, biblical responses.
