  • main points clearly stated

    I like this resource and believe it to be a very effective tool to help families grow together. I like that the authors want parents to learn to create "intentional impression points" with their children and agree that is what Deuteronomy 6:5 - 9 is talking about. Each Family Night is filled with active learning activities designed to get kids to interact with their families to learn and apply God's wisdom to their lives. I highly recommend this resource as an excellent tool to help parents effectively create "intentional lasting impressions" on their children to pass on a spiritual heritage to their children. Extremely well done Jim, Kurt, Mike, Amy and Chariot/Victor!
