The content of this book is phenomenal. So utterly true, inspiring, and motivating. It tells you exactly why you should pay tribute to your parents and how to do it. It was like holding onto God's hand as I wrote my tribute with the help of this book.

Whether you are a Christian, Jew, another faith, agnostic, or atheist, you will be touched by the presentation of Dennis' teaching. Honoring parents using this method will renew your relationship. Whether you have experienced wonderful parents, a bad relationship, neglect, or even abuse, this book will guide and show you how honoring them will bring something incredibly positve into your life and healing to your spirit. This book shows and guides you how to forgive your parents. I'm very sorry it's out of print! The world really needs it!

I first saw this book in 1994 and was intrigued by its title. The book explores the 5th commandment of the Bible using true life stories and examines what happens when adult children, honor their parents regardless of whether they are alive or have died. It then gives ideas of how to put together a tribute that gives due credit to what our parents got right. It does not gloss over issues of abuse or trauma but shows how giving honor can change the future direction of lives. Little did I realize back then it would take me on a journey that would not only change me but open a whole new level of relationship with my parents. This is a must read and it has been updated with a slightly new title.
