"I
wish we could put this book into the hands of everyone who works
with youth. Don Schmierer has given us a compassionate,
educational, and very hopeful book on a subject that is troubling
millions of young people today."

What's a Father to
Do? Author, counselor and father of two Don Schmierer speaks
man-to-man with dads about the problems that can arise with growing
kids - problems like addictions, eating disorders, promiscuity and
same-sex attractions. And he doesn't mince words.
So here's the bottom
line. As fathers:
-
Have we established
a pattern of open communication with our children?
-
Have we reached out
to our children, being receptive to their felt needs?
-
Have we given our
children dignity?
-
Have we set up
loving boundaries, so our children have a clear sense of right
and wrong?

Who inflicted on you the
deepest wound or wounds you've ever experienced?
-
Do you still feel the pain of
that wound (those wounds) today?
-
Do you ever ask yourself why
God let such a thing happen to you? Do you feel anger toward
Him?
-
Do you feel anger toward
others? Do you have a need to control, a desire for vengeance,
or a habit of intimidating others to compensate for your
terrifying feelings of powerlessness?
If any of these questions
apply to you, you'll find help in Healing Wounds of the Past. As
author Don Schmierer writes in the introduction, "Because I want
to help you understand and experience healing and inner peace, I
will get to the point; my style is going to be straight forward
- as we say in the West, 'no punches pulled.' My prayer for you,
when you've finished reading, is that you will truly experience
the peace of God that surpasses all understanding."

"The message of Healing Wounds of the Past really caught my
attention. The stories are moving and the interpretations and
applications of the Bible are powerful. I can anticipate workshops
being held where time is set aside for people to be ministered to in
small groups. I can already envision hundreds of people being
emotional healed and restored through reading the book. "
