These resources are truly outstanding and are desperately needed in our homes and churches.  The "Truth Matters Video Series" is built around the "Right from Wrong" book and provides a class setting to help teach parents how they can instill a sense of Right from wrong in their children to combat the growing surge of relativism our children are facing on all sides.  When 57% of our own CHURCHED kids can not say there is an absolute right and wrong, there is clearly a resounding need for resources like these.

Favorite Features - Video Series

• five 30-minute video segments featuring Josh McDowell
• reproducible worksheets
• easy to follow and lead leaders guide
• includes promo video
• each session includes video and group interaction

Favorite Features - "Right from Wrong" book

• provides parents the information they need to teach their own children absolutes
• survey results from churches teens
• part 1 teaches the crisis of Truth and why truth matters
• part 2 teaches the defense of Truth and gives realistic things parents can do to teach and model truth
• part 3 teaches the application of Truth and provides evidence for truth and activities families can do together to apply truth.
• part 4 shows the research analysis

    I cannot recommend highly enough that EVERY church utilize these resources to build strong families.  I believe our churches should start their Fall ministries off with a month of Right from Wrong classes for each age group.  With children going back to school, Fall is the perfect time to teach or remind everyone there is an absolute standard for right and wrong and these resources will genuinely help you do just that.  Extremely well done, Josh, Bob, Dave and Word!
