ReviewsThe West meets the East in Rich. Rich also makes everyone he meets feel spiritually and emotionally rich (uplifted), just as his name. It was such an honor and pleasure to be his advisor and friend. I can't wait to introduce this Rich-ness and FAITH5 to Asia! Dr. B. J. Jun Director of International Affairs, Asian Center for Theological Studies and Missions (ACTS), Seoul, Korea In Holding Your Family Together , Rich has brought together Word and service, congregation and family, content and experience, and peer and adult mentorship. This is a pedagogical strategy that is faithful to the gospel and highly effective in making disciples and preparing them for their vocations in the world. Dr. Roland Martinson Academic Dean, Luther Seminary St. Paul, Minnesota Back in home in Africa, I recall how the toll of the family bell woke us up at 6:00 AM and gathered us at 9:00 PM daily to talk, sing and pray together. As I look back, I acknowledge how this routine positively impacted my life. I am convinced that much of the dysfunction plaguing our world would be history if every home imbibed the spirit of FAITH5. This may very well be the way to heal our world and make it a better place for all of the human race. Thank you, Rich, for this invaluable family resource. Olukayode Olubunmi Founder and CEO, Okayhouse Film, Television and Records Los Angeles, CA and Lagos, Nigeria This book contains simple, easy-to-follow and quick routines that every parent must put into practice each day. These routines will have a lasting impact on their children and the future generation while instilling godly values in them. David Peters CEO, Cephas Media Group, Mumbai, India I simply have never seen a book like this. I was blown away by it. Northwood Church will definitely promote this among our families. Everyone talks about "discipling" your family, but Rich takes it a step further and provides a tool with which we can do that. Every family seeking to follow Jesus should read this and implement it. I'm a soon to-be-first-time grandfather--my kids will read this! Bob Roberts, Jr. Senior Pastor, Northwood Church, Keller, Texas Author, Bold as Love ; Transformation: How Glocal Churches Transform Lives and the World ; and Glocalization: How Followers of Jesus Engage a Flat World There are books that make good airplane books. There are books that are bedside books and coffee table books. Then there are those rare books that belong on the kitchen counter or in the family room, within easy reach for constant consultation and inspiration. Rich Melheim has written such a book.
