Unbreakable - by Kimberly Begg (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

In the battle for our children's souls, Catholic parents have a key advantage over the world: our families are destined for heaven. God willed us to exist now--in a world that celebrates sin as virtue and punishes Christians as "haters"--as part of His saving plan. In His abundant generosity, He confers on all His children the power to know, love, and serve Him. But His plan requires our participation. To spend eternity with Him in heaven, we must answer His call, now.

Unbreakable is a resource designed to help Catholic parents raise children who are strong enough to resist the soul-endangering temptations to "get along" with and "get ahead" in the world. Recognizing that what occupies our children's imagination is of profound importance, this book tells the stories of four of the Church's most courageous saints--Saint Joan of Arc, Saint José Luis Sánchez del Río, Blessed Jerzy Popieluszko, and Saint Teresa of Calcutta--and the ten saints who inspired them during their lives, including Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Juan Diego, Saint Maximilian Kolbe, and Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, among others.

Written for modern parents, Unbreakable continues a long tradition of helping families build a Christ-centered culture in their homes that can be passed on for generations.
