"In an age when many adults are not satisfied with how they relate to their parents, 'The Tribute' poses a challenging question: 'Have you ever honored your parents for what they did right?' By the time we reach adulthood, many of us have begun to ignore God's commandment to 'honor your father and your mother.' Although we teach this commandment to our children, we may no longer see its applicability to our own parents. In 'The Tribute,' Dennis Rainey powerfully addresses the importance of honoring your parents. Rainey will take you step-by-step through the process of collecting memories and writing your own tribute, using the examples of dozens of people who have written theirs and benefited from the experience. Honoring your parents can peel back the veneer and allow families to become vulnerable. God is truly honored as parents and children connect emotionally. 'Honor your father and mother' is a commandment whose time has come. Join Rainey as you praise your parents for the positive qualities and values they passed on to you. The result will be a profound and incredible experience which could be relationship- and life-changing." --
