A high school graduate answers a newspaper ad for a job...
A boy accepts an invitation from a customer who frequents the convenience store where he works...
Parents ask a neighbor to give their daughter a ride to a birthday party...
All three of these events lead to TRAGEDY for the young person involved.
Learn from two people who have seen treachery first hand and its effects.
Pastor Al Erickson with Patricia Malloy reveal the often hidden treachery that awaits our children in a world that is becoming increasingly dangerous.
The authors uncover what we don't want to face, but God has powerful gifts for those willing to do so. The Lie now propagated in society and in the minds of parents, grandparents and concerned adults is challenged. That lie is:
The youth of our nation are not in danger. No one is really after them. If there is jeopardy out there, they will easily avoid it. We don't have to be concerned, for they will make it to adulthood in fine shape. My influence as a parent, whatever that is, is all they really need – along with some other fine folks at my church and school. I will not have to live with any dire consequences and neither will they. (A lie!)
Along with the awareness of what awaits our kids, there are clear pictures of what a great calling God has given every parent and grandparent—roles of Prophet, Priest, and King as we are called to fulfill with God's help.
This disturbing, revealing, eye-opening and faith-building book has its strong Biblical foundations; it shows us why we need to assume the important role of Protector for precious young ones. Hope will be encouraged and desire to take action will be realized as Book II reveals solutions and tools that can make a real difference.
"For those who believe in Jesus Christ, this is an excellent book to read. What Al Erickson and Pat Malloy have explained in Parents Arise! Grandparents Arise! is not only imperative for the moral, social and emotional well-being of our nation, it is equally imperative for our economic and political well-being."
—Al Quie, former Governor of Minnesota
Book 2: Ten Actions to Take to Safeguard Our Children
ISBN: 1-880-292-40-8.
Are you a faithful protector of youth? Then you will not want to miss out on what is offered here!
But are you really prepared to equip your child for the world that is out there right now?
Why does my child need a code color to let me know he or she wants to leave a current location and come home immediately?
How safe is your child on the computer?
All over America vulnerable kids are being bullied, picked on, traumatized, misled, addicted, molested, deeply wounded and used. Heartsick families in desperation ask, what can be done?
Will your child, your family be next? Authors Al Erickson with Patricia Malloy have been there. They have committed themselves to help parents and grandparents discover what ways God wants to prepare them. In Book II, you will find a tool chest filled with ways to safeguard precious children. These tools bring us a sense of being better equipped as Protectors. Learn about intuition, brain development, boundaries and the art of safeguarding.
We are not left without methods and clarity. God has abundantly supplied us with the Holy Spirit, promises, warnings, and profound wisdom from His Word. There are effective resources that will be valuable to those who care.
The challenge for parents today is staggering. Most traps to hook youth are subtle, appealing, sophisticated and use powerful technology. Media has gained increasing influence in many homes. Conniving schemers are finding ways into the lives of young people while good parenting has little support.
This book is for all who believe God has given them a front-line ministry to pass on their Christian faith and to equip young people for a safe and healthy journey through life.
