“Meditation For Little Souls” is the delightful story of two children who experience the essence of their Creator, themselves, and nature through meditation. Poetically written, this work is a tribute to children whose innate spirituality, creativity, curiosity and connectedness to All That Is, holds the hope of humanity and the earth, in Divine love and peace.

Inspired by her studies at The Barbara Brennan School of healing, Ms. Bode submitted “Meditation For Little Souls” as her first year art project.

Many parents didn't have early spiritual training themselves, so they look to the church to provide it for their children.

The answer? George Barna says that churches must begin now to come alongside parents and equip them to provide their children, at the earliest age possible, with biblical precepts to protect them from a barrage of worldly ideas and teaching. It's time to wage a spiritual war, time to equip parents to help their children become the spiritually mature Church of tomorrow, literally transforming them into spiritual champions!

Most adults feel uncomfortable in the teen subculture. From this uneasy position, adults like to 'handle' the teens like children because they are threatening. The purpose of Timeless Youth Ministry is to help people in the church and Christian youth organizations minister to teenagers.

They've run programs, camps, and ministry trips in such diverse places as southern California, east Tennessee, northeast Ohio and Alberta, Canada, to name a few. This book is a needed resource to examine afresh what it means to be an adolescent in today's culture and how those who minister to young people can best reach them.

Our kids are bombarded daily with choices we never had to make. They are surrounded by gangs, weapons, and drugs. Teenage sexual activity has become a fact of life. Abortion a 'necessary evil.' And many kids are making these life-altering decisions without the benefit of wise biblical counsel.

You can do something about it. Ron Hutchcraft and Lisa Hutchcraft Whitmer recognize the urgent needs of our kids and know exactly what will help them--a relationship with Jesus Christ. Take a look into the world of today's teens. Relationships matter most to them. Music is their language. Sex is expected...and confusing. They are very lonely, wounded, and lost.

Most people have 20,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. And for Americans, more than half of those thoughts are negative. So how do you teach your children to guard their minds and hearts in today’s society?

This 12-session DVD series from respected relationship expert Dr. Gary Smalley shows parents how they can teach their children to meditate and memorize key Scriptures that will build a foundation for leading a positive life.

Every thought you have creates or reinforces already-created negative or positive beliefs in your heart. These beliefs are the main controllers of our thoughts, words, and actions, which in turn form our emotions. The key to having a high-quality life is to create beliefs within your heart that control your behavior.

In this interactive 12-week companion workbook to the Guarding Your Child’s Heart DVD series, Dr. Gary Smalley presents how-to steps, engaging questions, practical exercises, and fun activities to help the whole family memorize and meditate on key Scriptures.
