Lila Moreno and her two best friends, Meryl Morgenstern are social mutants. Not because of who they are, but who their guy-repellent daddies are. Lila's dad is the chief of police; Meryl's dad is the football coach, the driver's ed instructor, and the dean of discipline at the high school; and Caressa's dad is a famous musician. Boys are too terrified and intimidated by the girls' dads to come anywhere near them. So Lila, Meryl, and Caressa decide to take matters into their own hands. On the night of homecoming, instead of going dateless, they hold a Dumb Supper -- a Celtic ritual that shows single young women who their soul mates are. The dinner doesn't go exactly as planned, but never could they guess how much this loser's alternative to homecoming would change their lives.

Are we living in a "post-father" era? This book is a wake-up call to men and women, challenging them to understand the crisis of fatherlessness in the world and to examine its impact on our culture and in individual lives. The author also identifies the different types of father wounds, the specific scars that men and women carry, and provides personal steps for healing and experiencing God's Father Love. As a generation, one of the biggest issues we face is fatherlessness. We have a generation of boys, raised by women, who don't know how to be a man, husband, or father; and a generation of girls raised without the protection, affirmation, or wholesome affection of a father. In this book, Waylon Ward tackles these tough issues head on. Dr. John A. King Best-selling author of It's a Guy Thing: Helping Guys Become Men, Husbands, and Fathers Waylon Ward is an experienced pastoral counselor and life coach who has focused on healing the wounds of father deprivation for more than 30 years. From his own childhood and the life experiences of thousands of people he has counseled, he has learned how to enable individuals to find healing from these wounds by coming home to the loving heart of God the Father. Waylon and his wife, Lynn, founded Mercy Matters, a ministry of counseling, teaching and restoration. The Global Fathering Initiative (GFI) was created in 2008 to address the fathering crisis in our world and to provide healing for wounded men, women and children. Waylon is also the author of The Bible in Counseling and Sex Matters.

The art of storytelling and writing, which is integral to the development of the Christian church, must be encouraged. This is important because Jesus often used stories to illustrate or make a point. A well-crafted, Bible-based story has the capacity to capture the imagination, inspire, comfort, and encourage. Harvey Cox, in The Seduction of the Spirit, is quoted as saying, All human beings have an innate need to hear and tell stories and to have a story to live by ...religion, whatever else it has done, has provided one of the main ways of meeting the abiding need. Whos Your Daddy? Bible-Based Stories for Modern Families: Season 1 is well-crafted and inspired and provides an opportunity for all to meet the abiding need to hear and tell and to have a story to live by. The book is a delightful read for teens and families and can be usefully utilised in organisations such as churches and schools to supplement their existing teaching programmes. Season 1 begins with the authors version of the Christmas story, followed by Vol. 1: Sons, which depicts scenes from the lives of young biblical characters from both the Old and New Testaments. The issues explored are varied teen identity, self acceptance, mentorship, healing, forgiveness, and commitment. Vol. 2: Fathers reflects on some of the issues we all face at some point in our lives, such as self-conflict, the grieving process, self-sacrifice, and surrender to Gods divine will. The books climax is the Easter edition of the Whos Your Daddy series which I can only describe as exceptional. My understanding of the books origin has led me to conclude that these stories are inspired from the throne room of heaven.

By now you know--MikWright ain't right! We take a gawk at the past with present-day jabs, never stopping to say "we can't say that!" If you think your family has issues, look at ours! What were they thinking? Oh, give it a few years and we'll be saying the same things about this year's hairdos and don'ts. (You really have to wonder about the person who invented the salmon leisure suit, though.) Tim and Phyllis, and now Bob, work very hard to provoke something in this rather bizarre world of political correctness. Look--we're all targets of something, right? Come on--when was the last time you went to the mall and didn't come away without seeing at least a dozen chromosomal mishaps? Exactly. So, put on your not-so-serious hat and enjoy this hilarious look at fathers. You might even find ol' dad (in the bathroom or course) laughing at himself.

Everyone’s bringing baggage to this baby shower… Carmen James is nowhere near finished picking up the pieces after her divorce, and the last thing she needs is a positive pregnancy test. The fact that she doesn’t know for sure who the father is doesn’t help matters, but on the bright side, there’s only two candidates: Donovan, her best friend… or Isaac, his longtime boyfriend. Carmen’s struggling with an impossible-to-please family in between getting back on her feet. Donovan has his hands full with a teenager, plus a strained relationship with his own father, whose approval Donovan desperately craves. Isaac’s questioning his sexuality, not to mention wondering if he can handle a newborn at forty. And to top it off, they won’t know who the father actually is until the baby’s born, which has both men questioning how the outcome will affect their longstanding relationship. Oh, and there’s that minor detail about the undeniable three-way attraction that got them all into bed in the first place. Since they’re all quite compatible in the bedroom, and Carmen’s already pregnant, a casual sexual relationship seems like a good idea in the beginning. When emotions get involved, though, they could drive Carmen, Donovan, and Isaac apart when they need each other the most. Get ready for three people in one hell of a pickle (anyone have any ice cream?), parents who suck at parenthood, parents-to-be who think they’ll suck at parenthood, a relationship-friendship-sexual-kind-of-thing that keeps getting more complicated, and a Chuck Norris joke. This 99,000 word bisexual menage romance novel was previously published.
