<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A popular blogger guides parents in teaching their kids the beauty of sacrifice, the value of hard work, and the joy of putting others first, establishing an unshakable faith in a shifting world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Almost any parent you asked would tell you that they want their children to be happy, successful adults. But many of us forget (or never knew to begin with) that lasting personal joy is not necessarily found the way the world says it is--through reaching a certain socioeconomic status, having a certain job, buying a certain house, or having a certain amount in one's bank account. In fact, says Kristen Welch, popular blogger and author of <i>Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World</i>, personal satisfaction comes not from grabbing onto things but from holding them with an open hand and, very often, giving them away. <p/>In this inspiring book, Welch shows parents how to discover for themselves and instill in their kids the profound joy that comes from sharing what we have been given--our time, our talents, and even what's in our wallets--with those who have less. Through powerful personal stories as well as stories from Scripture, Welch offers a tantalizing alternative to status quo parenting that has the power to impact not only our own families but the entire world. At the end of each chapter, one of the author's kids offers their perspective on what it's like to be raised as a world changer.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>"The family you want is possible--and this is the book you need."</b>--<b>Ann Voskamp</b>, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Broken Way</i> and <i>One Thousand Gifts</i> <p/>Almost any parent you ask will tell you that they want their children to be happy, successful adults.
