About this title

About the Author:

Brian D. Molitor is the chief executive officer of Molitor International, a consulting and training company specializing in building interpersonal relationships. He has produced and hosted numerous television programs, writes business columns for several magazines, and is the author of "The Power of Agreement." Before his present job, Molitor worked at a residential youth camp for troubled youth and was the director of a state-wide mens' prison ministry, ministering to young men in particular. He and his wife Kathleen are the parents of four children, including three boys. Seeing how boys in American society are responding with violence to the issues they face as adolescents, Molitor wanted to celebrate his sons' entrance into manhood in a way that would affirm spiritual, emotional, and ethical maturity.

Review:

"As someone who has taught, written, and seen firsthand the incredible benefits of blessing children, I love Brian Molitor's book. Step by step, he'll show you how to put together a rite of passage ceremony that can be a life-changing event for you and your son. In years to come, you and your children will look back and thank the Lord for having carved out such a special memory-making time." --John Trent, Ph.D., President of Encouraging Words and author of "The Gift of the Blessing" and "Be There!"

"With deep compassion, Brian Molitor shares exciting concepts and meaningful examples for an often overlooked segment of our society-our boys." --Bishop Phil Porter, Chairman Emeritus of Promise Keepers Board of Directors

"A wonderful, motivational book to help a dad understand his God-given role in shaping his son, this book is far more than simply an excellent read. What you have in your hand is a complete Strategic Business Plan. The goal is to help you understand the mission, the objectives, and the step-by-step tactics to insure successful fatherhood. The dividend is a happy, fulfilled, and godly son. What could possibly be more valuable?" --Robert Wolgemuth, author of the notes in the best-selling "Devotional Bible for Dads"
