Whoops! Too Busy to Blog

by John ~ March 26th, 2011

We’ve had a very busy several months and have utterly neglected this blog. Here’s the news:

Raising Real Men went to a second printing in June, 2010, less than six months after its official release!

The audiobook version of Raising Real Men was officially released in May 2010 and has been “reprinted” several times since. We were told by other publishers not to produce this version, as audiobooks tend to lose money. We believed the opportunity to reach fathers who do not have time to read, but could listen to an audiobook was worth the risk. We are grateful to God for his blessing on our endeavor.

Fall 2010 marked the release of volumes one and two of our dramatized audiobook version of the classic Hero Tales from American History by Theodore Roosevelt and Henry Cabot Lodge. Sales have been terrific!

We are on the verge of releasing a new book by Hal and Melanie Young on the topic of marriage, as well as announcing an author new to our firm!

Please join us in praying for the Lord’s blessing on the next steps for Great Waters Press!

Chris Klicka “highly recommends” Raising Real Men

by John ~ August 12th, 2009

“Hal and Melane Young have six sons and are disciples of Jesus. They know how to raise real men. This book is a treasure trove of practical tips to help you to raise your sons right. It will answer your questions, help you avoid mistakes, bring them up in the Lord, and understand them. I highly recommend it.”

HSLDA’s President Michael Smith says “This is a book every family should have…”

by John ~ August 11th, 2009

“Raising boys can be a tremendous challenge for parents, especially when you have more than an few. We know that God designed them much differently than girls because of the role that He has chosen for them in life. Hal and Melanie in RAISING REAL MEN, have approached this subject from a Biblical perspective and have been true to the Biblical principles laid down for raising boys. However, once the principle has been laid out, then they bring a unique practical aspect to raising boys where the rubber meets the road. This is a book that will give parents a clear road map to follow for having the greatest possibility of success as parents prepare boys for their God-given role in adulthood. This is a book that every family should have no matter the number of boys and even those families without boys as the book gives tremendous insight into understanding how boys think and why they act as they do. This book meets a crying need in an area where there is very little specific direction. Thank you Hal and Melanie for this outstanding work of the Lord.
