The Generation to Generation Kit equips parents and grandparents to pass on a strong and living faith to your children and grandchildren.

The Generation to Generation Kit

The Generation to Generation Book:

In Generation to Generation, Yael Eckstein shares the lessons of Faith instilled in her by her parents that helped her to persevere following the sudden death of her father and gave her the hope and courage she needed to follow in his footsteps as President and CEO of The Fellowship.

Generation to Generation will show you how to bring Bible stories to life, discover how the Biblical festivals and traditions can help you share Faith within your family.

I shared a review of Generation to Generation last year, you can see it here. My views have not changed. I still highly recommend this book. Here’s what my book looked like by the time I finished reading it. The book is that good!

The Generation to Generation Workbook:

In the companion workbook, you’ll discover how Christians can pass on these lessons of Faith to their children and grandchildren.

This workbook is family friendly and is filled with Bible lessons, activities, and discussion questions for all ages.

The Workbook is available FREE to everyone! It looks like it will be an amazing resource for the whole family. See below for link to get the workbook.

If you are unsure if the Generation to Generation book is for you, I suggest starting with the free workbook. I think once you see how great the workbook is, you will want the book, too!

Holy Land Moments Coloring Book:

Coloring isn’t just for kids anymore. Coloring is a great way for adults to relax. The Holy Land Moments Coloring Book will help you relax & focus on the beauty and wonder of God’s Creation and His Word.

This coloring book pairs 12 devotions, called reflections in the coloring book, with illustrations based on Biblical Scriptures. So keep this coloring book hidden from your kids, pick up your crayons, markers, or colored pencils, and create your own unique masterpiece — and also be encouraged spiritually. If you have teens, you will really have to hide it, or buy them each one, too.

Generation to Generation

Not only do I highly recommend the book Generation to Generation, I also highly recommend the workbook, and the coloring book.

I recently received the book 1% Better Reaching My Full Potential and How You Can Too to review. Written by Chris Nikic & Nik Nikic, with Don Yaeger, 1% Better is written in Nik Nikic’s voice. Chris and his accomplishments are the focus of 1% Better, and Chris is a coauthor of the book as he was interviewed by his father and the writer.

1% Better Book Review & Giveaway

Chris Nikic, the first person with Down syndrome to every complete an IRONMAN triathlon, inspires others to achieve their goals by getting better 1% at a time.

If you have read only one article about Chris Nikic, you were likely hooked and wanted to read more. This inspiring young man, who in November 2020 became the first person with Down syndrome to complete an IRONMAN (and verified by Guinness World Records), has become famous. All across the globe, people followed his pursuit and cheered him on, but in this book Chris and his father, Nik, will give the how-to behind his success—getting better 1% at a time—which is something everyone can do in any area of their lives.

“My mission is to honor God by being the best me I can be so I can be an example to others,” states Chris. “I want to change the perceptions and raise expectations for others like me so we can reach our God-given potential.” In 1% Better, Chris and Nik share the motivating principles that can be applied by anyone trying to realize a dream and reach their full potential—whether they are young or old, in shape or out of shape, and even if living with a disability.

I enjoyed reading 1% Better. A great book, about a great guy, and his awesome accomplishments. I learned a couple of things that I will be applying to my life in areas that I need to improve.

1% Better is divided into 3 parts.

Part 1 covers from Dad’s childhood to Chris’ childhood, school, and interest in sports.

Part 2 is the section where Chris gets serious about his training, and his accomplishments.

Part 3 goes into more detail about the 1% better concept. The mindset and habits one needs to develop to achieve their goals and dreams.

In each part, Dad also talks about his business’, how they relate to his son, and to his 1% better philosophy.

I was slightly disappointed that there wasn’t more shown from Chris’s point of view. I believe that was by design, as stated above in the first paragraph. I did miss more of his voice, though.

Overall, 1% Better is a great book, and I highly recommend it. Whether you are looking for a great read, or a self help book to improve your life, I think you will like 1% Better, too.

You can purchase 1% Better HERE.

I recently received a copy of Generation to Generation to read. Generation to Generation is the new book from the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, written by the founders daughter, Yael Eckstein.

The sub title Passing on a Legacy of Faith to Our Children aptly describes this book.

Chapters include Shabbat, Passover, Shavuot, Tisha B’Av, the High Holy Day, Sukkot, Purim, and tzedakah. Within those chapters, discussions include teaching our children, priorities, gratitude, hope, forgiveness, faith, courage, generosity, and more.

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews was founded in 1983 by Orthodox Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, whose vision for building bridges of understanding and cooperation between Christians and Jews has been translated into the largest Christian-supported humanitarian agency helping Jews in Israel and around the world. You can learn more about the organization and Rabbi Eckstein here.

For more than 2,000 years, the Jewish people have preserved and maintained their faith from generation to generation, despite being exiled from their land and suffering persecutions, pogroms, and even the Holocaust, where six million Jewish women, men, and children were killed at the hands of the Nazis. In her book, Generation to Generation, Fellowship President and CEO Yael Eckstein unlocks the keys to how the Jewish people have successfully passed on the legacy of faith through the family,  and offers insights into how Christians can incorporate these principles within their own families to pass on a strong and living faith.

The author, Yael Eckstein, is President and CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, the largest provider of humanitarian aid in Israel.  You can find more info about her on the book site, www.generationbook.org

Generation to Generation Book Review

You can tell how good a book is by how many pages you mark! This was not just for a picture. These are actual markers I placed while I read this book.

I love that at the end of every chapter there are 3 pages to help you see where what was discussed in that chapter is mentioned in the New Testament, Family Talk – family discussion questions, and Bible verses to memorize.

In this example you find out how Tisha B’av is mentioned. These pages are very informative. You just may see a connection that you haven’t seen before.

Depending on the ages of your children, you may be able to read these Family Talk questions just as they are. For younger kids, you can easily simplify the questions to their level.

At the bottom of this page is a section just for parents. These sections will encourage and inspire you to learn and live these principals with your children every day.

The page of Bible memory verses includes selections from both the Old and the New Testaments. The verses vary in length. You choose which one, or more, will work for you family.

I highly recommend this book if you have children. I wish I had had this book when mine were younger! Yes, my kids are now grown. I still loved this book!

I highly recommend this book if you have ever delved into your Jewish roots, or would like to. You don’t have to have young kids to read this book! She does talk about kids a lot, but the book isn’t written for kids, it’s written for adults.

I highly recommend this book if you desire to learn how to share your faith with your children on a daily basis. The author shares many, many examples of how to live out the principles in this book. Ways to weave your faith into everything you do every day with your family.

Maybe you don’t have kids. Or like me, your kids are grown. Give this book to those in your life that do have kids. Grandparents, share this book with your kids, so they can share it with theirs.

Generation to Generation is available on Amazon.
