Set of 6 DVDs
Fathers need to begin speaking to their sons. But the conversation can’t be aimless or trivial. Fathers need to talk in manly and specific ways about the duties of Christian manhood. This six-part DVD series is designed to provide fathers and future fathers with simple examples of manly discussion. Where does a dad begin? With the pressing issues that weigh on young minds, these informal, unrehearsed conversations between Geoffrey Botkin and his five sons show how it can be done.
Each episode tackles an age appropriate discipline of manhood and how it is developed with fathers. Sons learn the disciplines of manhood through hard work. Fathers interpret the world for sons through shared adventures. Sons learn leadership duties through worship. Sons learn to conquer the world by dominion and to hold the ground they take through spiritual battle. Each rich conversation is broken into short study segments, and thorough Bible-study notes are provided as PDFs which can jump-start family or Bible-study discussions. Also included is the sixth bonus DVD: How To Talk to Your Sons and 103 pages of study materials.
I’d like to prescribe this series for every father in America. Fathers desperately need to turn their hearts to their sons. This series will give them confidence to do it.”
— D. Matthew Clark, M.D.
We have found these DVD’s an excellent aid in discipling our sons. Not to be a replacement to talking with your sons by any means, but a great jump start for many families with boys. Our daughter also benefitted from them. Many important topics are covered from work, worship and war to adventure and many others. A very useful tool.

We used the Grade 5-6 book with one of our children for the first time this year and it has been wonderful. These books will help your child to read more carefully, interpreting text, graphs, charts, etc, identifying evidence from these multiple sources to support written answers. You can use this book as a break from your normal maths program to help cement concepts they have been learning, or introduce new concepts from a different angle, developing higher order thinking skills. Forty-four lessons covering these topics: Number and Numeration; Operations; Ratio, Proportion and Percent; Geometry and Introduction to Trigonometry; Probability; Statistics; Algebraic Concepts.

Originally published in 1940, this book has become a rare phenomenon, a “living” classic. It is the best and most successful guide to reading comprehension for the general reader. And now it has been completely rewritten and updated.
You are told about the various levels of reading and how to achieve them — from elementary reading, through systematic skimming and inspectional reading, to speed reading, you learn how to pigeonhole a book, X-ray it, extract the author’s message, criticize. You are taught the different reading techniques for reading practical books, imaginative literature, plays, poetry, history, science and mathematics, philosophy and social science.
Finally, the authors offer a recommended reading list and supply reading tests whereby you can measure your own progress in reading skills, comprehension and speed.
If you desire education to be at your fingertips, then you will want this book. An essential asset to the self learner’s library.
