Kids, It’s Time We Have THE TALK because doing the sex-thing or doing the drug-thing can ruin a kid’s life, but NOT doing The God-thing can ruin a kid’s eternity.Using teachings from John Paul II, Fulton J. Sheen, Thomas Merton, Mother Teresa, and others, John R. VanBuskirk tells his kids about God & God-stuff, Living & Dying, Heaven & hell.VanBuskirk explains the purpose of life to his twenty-something-year-old kids and the importance of getting through life rather than merely being successful in it. He challenges his kids to: - Love the world more than any other creature God has ever given life to- Possess the heart of a servant and add to what God has created as one of His co-creators and partners- Know God in ways equal to the saints and angels in Heaven- Achieve a special, personal intimacy with God - an intimacy that the angels might envyKids, It’s Time We Have THE TALK will help you keep First-Things-First. It will enable you to explain why First-Things are First-Things.It’s the talk parents are obligated to have with kids. It’s the talk each of us is obligated to have with ourselves.
