Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A few weeks after Dad passed away," says H. Jackson Brown, Jr., the compiler of A Father's Book of Wisdom, "we found eight shoeboxes in his closet filled with scraps of paper all covered with ideas Dad thought were profound, interesting, or merely amusing." The result is one father's view of life and what he thought about the importance of self-reliance, commitment, love, generosity, and success. It contains 159 quotes from Socrates, Eleanor Roosevelt, Andrew Jackson, Mother Teresa, and many others covering such topics as achievement,courage, happiness, parenting, success, and values. Quotations such as "If you're looking for a big opportunity, seek out a big problem" and "Life doesn't come with an instruction book - that's why we have fathers" communicate an upbeat, positive view of the world that will inspire and charm the reader. It is the perfect gift book for Father's Day, graduation, or any time of the year, and may even inspire you to jot down a few notes of your own.

Book excerpt: What does it really mean to be a good father? What did your father tell you, that has stayed with you throughout your life? Was there a lesson from him, a story, or a moment that helped to make you who you are? Is there a special memory that makes you smile when you least expect it? After the publication of Tim Russert’s number one New York Times bestseller about his father, Big Russ & Me, he received an avalanche of letters from daughters and sons who wanted to tell him about their own fathers, most of whom were not superdads or heroes but ordinary men who were remembered and cherished for some of their best moments–of advice, tenderness, strength, honor, discipline, and occasional eccentricity. Most of these daughters and sons were eager to express the gratitude they had carried with them through the years. Others wanted to share lessons and memories and, most important, pass them down to their own children. This book is for all fathers, young or old, who can learn from the men in these pages how to get it right, and to understand that sometimes it is the little gestures that can make the big difference for your child. For some in this book, the appreciation came later than they would have liked. But as Wisdom of Our Fathers reminds us, it is never too late to embrace it. From the father who coached his daughter in sports (and life), attending every meet, game, performance, and tournament, to the daughter who, after a fifteen-year estrangement, learned to make peace with her difficult father just before he died, to the son who came, at last, to appreciate the silent way his father could show affection, Wisdom of Our Fathers shares rewarding lessons, immeasurable gifts, and lasting values. Heartfelt, humorous, engaging, irresistibly readable, and bound to bring back memories of unforgettable moments with our own fathers, Tim Russert’s new book is not only a fitting companion to his own marvelous memoir, but also a celebration of the positive qualities passed down from generation to generation.

Book excerpt: Folded Wisdom is an inspirational testament to the depth of a father’s love for his children, and an intimate look into beautiful, raw, human communication. Within the pages of this book, Joanna Guest shares the insightful notes her father drew for her and her brother Theo every day for nearly 15 years. For her entire childhood, Joanna’s father, Bob, had a ritual: wake up at dawn, walk the dog, and sit down at the kitchen table with a blank pad of paper and plenty of colored markers to craft notes for his two children. Over the years, word games and puzzles for five-year-olds morphed into thoughtful guidance and reflections for his teenagers approaching adulthood. Now, with more than 3,500 of her father’s colorful notes in hand, Joanna has decided that the lessons tucked inside are worth sharing. Folded Wisdom highlights the collection of Bob’s notes, telling a story filled with universal values that encourages meaningful self-reflection – about how we all face successes and failures; express happiness and sadness; and communicate frustration, praise, and love to one another. Heartfelt and full of possibility for the future, a father’s folded notes and drawings are timeless reminders of love.

Book excerpt: When in 1705 Kornell Csillag's grandfather returns destitute to his native Hungary from exile, he happens across a gold fob-watch gleaming in the mud. The shipwrecked fortunes of the Csillag family suddenly take a new and marvelous turn. The golden watch brings an unexpected gift to the future generations of firstborn sons: clairvoyance. Passed down from father to son, this gift offers the ability to look into the future or back into history–for some it is considered a blessing, for others a curse. No matter the outcome, each generation records its astonishing, vivid, and revelatory visions into a battered journal that becomes known as The Book of Fathers. For three hundred years the Csillag family line meanders unbroken across Hungary's rivers and vineyards, through a land overrun by wolves and bandits, scarred by plague and massacre, and brutalized by despots. Impetuous, tenderhearted, and shrewd, the Csillags give birth to scholars and gamblers, artists and entrepreneurs. Led astray by unruly passions, they marry frigid French noblewomen and thieving alehouse whores. They change their name and their religion, and change them back. They wander from home but always return, and through it all The Book of Fathers bears witness to holocaust and wedding feast alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ascetics of Scete and the Thebaid in the Egyptian Desert have been more often admired than known or understood. Translations by such scholars as Helen Waddell have done much to restore the true perspective. This new selection from the Latin 'Sayings of the Fathers' (Verba Seniorum) has been made by Thomas Merton with a special purpose. It is not only a translation and selection, but a new monastic redaction in the spirit of our own time. Merton has felt free, as a monk, to do what generations of monks before him have done. He has made a wholly independent and original use of material which is the traditional basis of Christian monastic spirituality." -- Dust jacket.

The reason it took me this long even when I have all the story in my mind is my time was very short to sit at the computer and type. It is about an innocent man looking for a job and he ends up in a trap. They hired him to kill, but the plan was killing the President, so he did what he was hired for, but inside the jail was a shocking surprise. I hope you like the story.

Book excerpt: This book is a book of quotes, maxims, and inspirational statements from new fathers to their children. These statements encompass life, happiness, love, and gender. Well intertwined are illustrations that depict the meaning of the inspirational statements. The idea for this book came upon the birth of yet another child in this circle of these friends.

This book is a compilation of other words of wisdom from young fathers. The books purpose is three fold: 1) to inspire fathers, young and old, 2) to provide words of wisdom to whisper or boldly input into the lives of children, and 3) to portray the awesome power of a father’s love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giving advice just goes with the territory of being a father. Gathered here from private letters, notes, postcards, and memoirs is a remarkable and revealing collection of fatherly wisdom, given to and by more than a hundred of history's most distinguished dads, including: Bob Dylan, Harry Truman, Warren Buffett, John F. Kennedy, Walt Disney, Isaac Asimov, George Lucas, Charlie Chaplin, Theodore Roosevelt, and many others. Whatever their theme -- money, career, relationships, or self-development -- these thoughtful and insightful nuggets offer a rare glimpse into the minds of some of our most influential fathers. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. Instead, we rely on advice -- bits of knowledge and experience freely proffered. A father's words can be of immense value, providing guidance, giving comfort, and strengthening the links of memory that connect one generation to the next. The Book of Fathers' Wisdom is a collection of heartfelt writings from history's most famous fathers. The topics featured include faith and community, love, the responsibilities of family, coping with illness and tragedy, work, having respect for others, keeping a sense of humor, and much more. Discover timeless observations from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on overcoming prejudice, John Butler Yeats to his son William on the price of artistic achievement, Jack London on truth, and Charles Dickens and Mahatma Gandhi on success. There are tips for more effective writing from Henry James and C. S. Lewis, plus many other witty and wise lessons from unforgettable dads. The letters, cards, and other writings gathered here make up an extraordinary collection of smart counsel and good advice. The words of biblical figures and Roman statesmen are presented alongside those of modern-day writers, entrepreneurs, and rock stars, each offering his unique, fatherly perspective on living a successful life. As relevant today as when they were first written, their words speak to us -- concerned, intelligent, and perceptive, with the warmth and empathy of a father's welcoming embrace. Book jacket.

During his 40 years as a pastor and biblical counselor, Dr. Ron Allchin, D.Min., has seen a downward spiral of our youth culture. Drugs, teenage pregnancy, alcohol, rebellion, and all human evil among teens have a common root: the rejection of wisdom because they did not choose to fear the LORD. HOW can we reverse this trend? This interactive Bible study helps dads guide their teens on practical, successful, godly living. When a dad is unavailable, a grandfather, uncle, youth group leader, or a mom may fill his shoes. This book covers: MONEY, DATING, HONORING PARENTS, FRIENDSHIPS, CURSING, & OTHER TOPICS. GROWING IN WISDOM is the right resource for individuals and groups, classrooms, and youth ministries. It's a life-changing guide to wisdom. Visit Biblical Counseling Center at www.BiblicalCounselingCenter.org. "Helping Churches Care for People." We counsel. We train. We care.
