Review of She Still Calls Me Daddy

She Still Calls Me Daddy by Robert Wolgemuth is excellent gift for any father of the bride. It would also make a great belated father’s day gift. At the end of each chapter is a  remodel check list that reviews the important points.  Wolgemuth uses remodel language through out the book to help the audience relate. Wolgemuth shares with the audience his personal reflections from his own wedding day and his daughters, as well as the biblical perspective of being a father- in-law. He stresses the importance of communication through out the whole book. He provided great godly advice for the in-laws about how to deal with bride and groom.

Wolgemuth talked about how the role of the father changes  how dad’s  go from being Chief Excutive Dad to a side line observe as a father -in law. He discussed how when your daughters are little a dad’s job is to protect their body and their heart and after they are married a dad’s role is protect his daughter’s marriage. While your daughters are growing up according to Wolgemuth a dad’s role is like a prophet and after they are married it becomes the role of a priest.

He uses biblical examples of father-in laws. He uses Saul to show the negative example of being a father- in law.  Jethro and Moses relationship is highlighted  to show the positive example of being a father-in law.  According to  Wolgemuth   praying for the couple and developing a relationship with your son-in law are some of  the most important things a father-in-law can do.

The advice given in the book can assist with any family, dealing with married children.

Gift Book about Desmond Tutu

I have read two books from the ME WE series published by Blue Mountain Arts publishing. The book titled Believe is about Desmond Tutu. I had heard about Tutu and once set up the audio visual equipment at a Hotel he spoke it. I got to see him briefly in passing. I knew he was famous religious figure, but I didn’t really know anything about him.

All the books in the Me We Series start with an introduction by Desmond Tutu. The introduction talks about ” Ubuntu, which is a central African philosophy: the essence of what it is to be human (page 3)

Half the book is a brief but through biography of Desmond tutu and the second half is excerpts from his sermons dealing with the idea of believe. The ” Believe” theme comes from the idea that Tutu has always believed there is good in humans.

The book offers excellent quotes from Tutu sermons that support that believe and ubuntu.
