Synopsis
Parenting strategies you can be proud of
You know the feeling. You got frustrated, desperate, or overwhelmed and you reacted before you could think it through. Whether it's a one-time thing or it becomes a habit, we all parent in ways we don't like. But it doesn't have to continue. Whether it's bribery, yelling, counting to three, or threats of punishment you didn't mean to make, reacting never feels good. But if you can learn to act with intentionality, you'll feel better about your choices and be grateful for the results.
Dr. Kathy Koch (pronounced "cook"), author of Screens and Teens and 8 Great Smarts, will teach you proven strategies for training your child's heart and parenting in a way that honors God. She'll help you move your child from, "I can't, I won't," to "I can, I will, and I did." We can do better than "Because I said so." or "No screen time for 3 days." We can do better than mere behavior modification. We can change our children's hearts and teach them to do what is good, godly, and right even when we're not around. Once you've learned to put these motivation strategies in place there's no more need to nag, you'll be astounded at what your kids will do without being asked. Dr. Kathy doesn't offer a quick-fix. Starting with the heart is all about changing what children believe in order to change their behavior. And learning to use this kind of motivation takes effort, consistency, and strategy, but it works. And it's never too late! If you're willing to commit to a little hard work up front, you'll enjoy your kids, your life, and yourself much more when you learn to start with the heart.

Resilient Kids
Children need to believe their future is bright. The more disappointments they don’t recover well from, the less likely they are to dream. When they do not process challenging experiences well it can lead to defeat, rather than encourage them to grow and mature. Far too many children don’t grasp their strengths and, as a result do not believe they can overcome negative encounters. Apathy sets in. Discouragement persists. Arguments rage. Mental health suffers. Children need to be resilient and when they develop this ability and make wise choices it becomes part of their character. Furthermore, they need parents who help them to learn from negative experiences and who allow them a certain measure of struggle. In Resilient Kids moms and dads will learn the power and purpose of resilience and how to parent so as to make it more likely their children will utilize this character quality.

The Name of the Rose
Ketenangan Biara Benediktin pecah. Serangkaian kematian misterius membuat para rahib dijalari kengerian. William Baskerville, seorang mantan inkuisitor Fransiskan, dipanggil untuk mengusutnya. Waktunya hanya tujuh hari sebelum pertemuan kelompok Fransiskan dan kelompok Paus yang berkonflik besar diadakan di biara itu. Di tengah pencarian dalang pembunuhan, ada perang antara iman dan logika. William yang seorang rasionalis harus berhadapan dengan keimanan yang kadang membabi buta. Sampai akhirnya, William sadar bahwa ternyata keingintahuan bisa membahayakan. Bahkan, pertanyaan yang dianggap menyerang keimanan bisa membawa seseorang berhadapan dengan kematian. The Name of the Rose, novel yang terjual lebih dari lima puluh juta eksemplar di seluruh dunia ini dengan apik memadukan "kutipan" dan fiksi, sejarah dan kisah, serta imajinasi dan semiotika. Dengan sangat cerdas, Eco menghadirkan kehidupan biara yang puritan lengkap dengan tradisi pemikiran gereja Abad Pertengahan.\\ [Mizan, Bentang Pustaka, Novel, Terjemahan, Fiksi, Indonesia]
