Letters from Home

One day you're on the phone with your friends. The next, off to confront the "real world" with all its promises and perils. Ted Haggard's letters to his children who are leaving for college combine the deep concerns of every loving parent with the simple, profound truths that are the keys to a successful life in Christ. Based on Jesus' teaching in Luke I2, each letter covers a specific topic or situation we all confront every day -- from self-image and money matters to how to treat others and manage your future. You'll discover basic values that can help you realize God's perfect plan for your life, including: Living as if there is no such thing as a secret, Fearing God, not people, Remembering that we are valuable to God, Acknowledging God in a pagan culture, Seeking the kingdom of God, Understanding the consequences of our beliefs, Learning to manage conflict. If we follow these principles, we can overcome whatever the world throws at us and, ultimately, determine how successful we are in life. Letters from Home embodies what all of us should know in order to live honorably, and live well.
