For Kids' Sake: Winning the Tug-of-War for Future Generations [Paperback]

H. B. London Jr. (Author), Dr. Neil B. Wiseman (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 16, 2004

This book is a passionate presentation of what our society is producing in children. The authors first present a "code blue" alarm for the need of paramedic and ambulance for at-risk children; then they provide some practical suggestions about how to save the children. The book contains statistics and stories with illustrations and hope-filled solutions; calling the reader to become what God has always called the Church to be - a change agent for the spiritually needy in every strata of society. Given the realities of our world - catastrophes on every news broadcast, an epidemic of fragmented families, a severely coarsened society - we can still make a difference in the lives of children by teaching them to value the right things.
