Description

Children of every age long for the gift of The Blessing—the unconditional love and approval that comes from a healthy relationship with their parents.

This life-changing gift for Christian parents and their children, essential for instilling a deep sense of self-worth and unshakable emotional well-being, contains five essential elements:

  • meaningful touch
  • a spoken message
  • attaching high value
  • picturing a special future
  • an active commitment

Offering solid, practical advice and a fresh perspective on making this gift a bigger part of our families, The Blessing powerfully communicates these biblically based elements as necessary to prepare children for positive future relationships, including their relationship with a loving God.

New to this updated edition are

  • giving The Blessing to others in your circle of influence,
  • practical application tools and stories of how this is lived out,
  • insight and help for those who didn't receive The Blessing,
  • and how to create a lifestyle of blessing others.
