When He’s Set to Go and You’re in the Know

Your son has grown up and is about to leave the house for the first time. Fathers are often left with conflicting emotions within, and the desire to equip him with everything he might possibly need to know when he’s “out there” on his own. Just how can you convey it all when the words seem so elusive? Pastor and bestselling author Ron Mehl makes it easy through his wise, winsome, and practical writing. Dealing with diverse issues of faith and integrity ranging from choosing a mate to managing finances, the wisdom contained in these pages offers encouragement, boosts confidence, and provides guidance for years to come.

The Perfect Graduation Gift for That Special Young Man

A lifelong pastor, Ron based this volume on a handmade book of fatherly advice he originally wrote for his two sons upon their graduation from high school.
