Talk One:  BECOMING THE PERFECT PARENT - NOT!  How To Plant Trees and Carve Pillars. Someone once said as parents, our ultimate purpose isn't simply to give our children food and shelter for the first twenty years of life.  Our purpose is to one day present to God, the church and the world mature young adults who are good servants, good stewards, and good citizens.  With that long view to parenting we will not only be successful, but more importantly, we will be legacy builders.  This talk will set the tone and tenor of good parenting principles going forward and will help the attendees catch the vision and run with it.  

Talk Two: WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND Giving the Gift of Honor.  "What goes around comes around" was one of the first phrases I can remember my father teaching us three boys.  It had the effect of establishing an atmosphere of honor in our home - in our words, looks, and actions.  For culture to eventually change, there will have to come a change in our homes and families.  The majority of us aren't given the opportunity to change the world, our city, or even our neighborhood, but we can change our homes. The Gift of Honor is the first foundation for confronting this "dishonoring" culture we live in and this talk will inspire and motivate you to start right where you live and with those you can influence - your children. 

Talk Three:   OTHERS MAY; YOU CANNOT The Importance of Values   Louis-Joseph Lebret, the great Dominican philosopher said: "Civilization cease when we no longer respect and no longer put into their correct places the fundamental values, such as work, family, country; such as the individual, honor and religion."  In other words, values shape not only you or your home but also the way a nation lives and prospers.  Core values are everything.  It sets in place the foundations as to how we choose to live, particularly in this ever-shifting culture of ours.  This talk will not only help us set boundaries and hedges around our homes but inventory our current core values or lack thereof, so that with confidence we can declare - others may; you cannot.
