Creating lasting impressions for the next generation!
These ideas and activities have been tried and tested by families like yours. They are designed to make lasting impressions on children of all ages.

Have fun with these simple science experiments that use items commonly found in the home to teach important truths from God's Word. For example:

• Attempt to crush a raw egg to learn about God's protection.
• Make candies "spark" and learn how to be a light in the world.
• Watch how peas fall out of a glass and learn to follow God, not the world.
• Make a rainbow and be reminded how God kept His promise to Noah.
• See how a hard-boiled egg can be sucked into a glass bottle and discover that nothing is impossible with God.

Jim Weidmann founded the Family Night movement several years ago and now teaches and leads dads in creativity teams where ideas are developed and shared. He also serves as the Executive Director of the National Day of Prayer. Jim and his wife, Janet, have four children.

Mark DeNooy has been involved in Christian Education for the past 15 years and has taught Science and Bible at Denver Christian Middle School for the past 10 years. He and his wife, Nancy, have three children.

3-0 out of 5 stars The end of abortion
Fascinating book about technology's use in aiding reproduction. The author takes us down the road science is paving that is clearly absent moral consideration. One of the most fascinating aspects, though, of the futureof technology in reproduction is the coming of an artificial womb that willallow transplants of embryos and fetuses. The implications of thistechnology on the abortion debate is likely to be staggering. According tothe infamous Roe V. Wade ruling, a fetus that can live outside of themother with the aid of technology is viable, and therefore protectable bylaw. Fetal transplants, using artificial wombs, will end the violence ofabortion in this country. I look forward to the day!

5-0 out of 5 stars Very readable review about themyriad of modern options.

Product Description
What is the right time to have a baby? And if starting a family means interrupting your career, cementing your relationship irrevocably, permanently changing your way of life - how does anyone decide the right time? This book examines the whole issue of reproduction and family planning, and argues that fertility education is as much of a necessity for adults as sex education is for children. Drawing on a number of real case histories, Maureen Freely and Celia Pyper consider contraception and the links between children, youth and death, and offer a revolutionary view on how to be as rational as possible about the biggest and perhaps the wildest decision we ever make. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Human beings may share 98 percent of their genetic makeup with their nonhuman primate cousins, but they have distinctive life histories. When and why did these uniquely human patterns evolve? To answer that question, this volume brings together specialists in hunter-gatherer behavioral ecology and demography, human growth, development, and nutrition, paleodemography, human paleontology, primatology, and the genomics of aging. The contributors identify and explain the peculiar features of human life histories, such as the rate and timing of processes that directly influence survival and reproduction. Drawing on new evidence from paleoanthropology, they question existing arguments that link humans' extended childhood dependency and long "post-reproductive" lives to brain development, learning, and distinctively human social structures. The volume reviews alternative explanations for the distinctiveness of human life history and incorporates multiple lines of evidence in order to test them. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Representing the Current State of the Art
The DNA of humans differs from the DNA of the other primates by only about 2%. But that 2% means: speech, higher level thinking, enhanced tool using,and minor changes like much less body hair.

This book is a look at how these differences came about that is written by a series of specialists in areas as diverse as behavioral ecology, human growth and development, paleodemography, paleontology and more. They analyze the peculiar features of human life histories that directly indluence survival and reproduction.

The book does not take a dogmatic approach, but reviews alternative explanations for the distinctiveness of human life history and gives multiple lines of evidence in order to test them.

The authors of the various sections of the book represent a who's who of thinkers in this area from around the world, and reflects on the latest evidence from paleoanthropology. They question the existing body of theory and present alternatives. ... Read more
