It's no secret that the family is under attack. According
to Pope John Paul II, "In a world that is becoming even more secularized, the
great task of the believing family is to become conscious of its own vocation
and mission." Today's Catholic parents need to know: How do you chart a safe
course for your family through the murky waters of modern culture? How do you
recognize the many opportunities for growing in holiness offered by your "domestic
church"? What can you do to make sure your kids stay Catholic? What makes a
"successful" Catholic father? Now on four CDs (or cassettes), St. Joseph Communications
has gathered four respected Catholic speakers to take on the challenge of facing
the facts about faith, family and fatherhood.
Spiritual Principles, Real-World Advice
The first presentation is from well-known
author, radio personality and former host of EWTN's Life on the Rock, Jeff
Cavins. You'll discover the profound impact that your family can have on
our society when you begin to recognize your family as a place of sacrifice.
You'll appreciate the intimate and candid way that Jeff offers examples
from his own family life to show you how to take advantage of this crucial
spiritual principle.
Also, among the biggest challenges faced
by Catholic parents today is loss of faith among their children. In his
heartfelt and truly practical presentation "Tending the Domestic Sheepfold,"
Baptist convert Ken Hensley reveals six effective strategies to help you
keep your kids Catholic. Drawing on personal experience and centuries of
Catholic spiritual wisdom, Ken freely shares timeless, real-world advice
that you can really use.
Challenging Culture, Fruitful Fatherhood
Artist, novelist and acknowledged expert
on culture and religion Michael O'Brien shares the importance of forming
our children in a genuine culture. In the face of the relentless onslaught
of movies, TV, videogames, etc., you'll discover how to recognize and resist
the negative influences of secular culture on your kids without becoming
"paranoid" or "alarmist." And, at the same time foster in your children
a true Christian imagination. Finally, Jim Stenson, a Catholic educator
of the "old school" shares his extensive experience with Catholic families
and the formation of their children. An astute observer, Mr. Stenson distills
decades of personal experience to discern for you the qualities and characteristics
essential to become a successful Catholic father. In an era when men spend
so much time and effort on their business relationships, its more important
than ever to put the right emphasis on a man's most important relationships
- with God and family. This series should be essential listening for every
Catholic parent. Purchase your copy of Fathers, Faith and Family today and
start on the road to more effective, more successful and most importantly,
more Catholic parenting.
