Mary DeMuth, well-known author of Ordinary Mom, Extraordinary God, was tired of family dialogue based only on schedules, chores, or bedtime negotiations. Inspired by Jesus' meaningful interactions with others, Mary shaped this great resource to help parents develop discussion skills, nurture relational talks with kids, and build strong families in the process.
To keep the chats going, Mary offers 150 engaging conversation starters to reconnect families at dinner time, while in the car, at bedtime, or anytime that two or more are gathered.
Creative questions and guidance help families explore faith, compassion, memories, and hopes. Parents, grandparents, teachers, youth leaders, and kids will discover the entertainment and connection that unfolds once the talking begins.

"Just when I thought the dinner time meals had been regulated to silly banter, in comes Mary DeMuth's new book 150 Quick Questions to Get Your Kids Talking. Already proving to be a valuable tool in connecting with my teens, I will definitely be recommending this book to the moms I invest in. Thanks again for delivering just what we need, Mary."
--Lynn Cowell, speaker with Proverbs 31 Ministries and author of His Revolutionary Love; Jesus' Radical Pursuit of You
"Once again Mary DeMuth knows how to write a book that is as entertaining as it is helpful. Her newest book, 150 Quick Questions to Get Your Kids Talking, is just excellent! She divided the book up into 10 chapters that make these questions relevant to different topics - ones any child would want to answer. This book gave me insight, practical application and thoughtful ideas of how to interact with my children. I would recommend this book to every parent."
--Lane Jordan, LaneJordanMinistries.com
"Mary DeMuth carefully and cleverly shares, in a very quick read, why the dinner table invites intimate conversation and why conversational parents are parents whose children grow up trusting them and staying in communication. All you need to get a conversation going is something to talk about that matters, and there are 150 conversations here just waiting to happen."
--Susan Meissner, author, Lady in Waiting
"In today's hurried world, many of us have forgotten how important it is to connect with our children, especially at mealtime. Often we ask them how they are doing, only to receive one-word answers. As parents, we may become discouraged. Mary DeMuth provides 150 delightful, open-ended questions that help us connect with our children. These unique discussion starters will open the doors for fun and enlightening mealtime conversations. I heartily recommend that you keep a copy of this book near your dinner table!"
--Jody Capehart, author of The New Christian Charm Course, educator and school administrator
