I purchased onyourown.com on a whim, thinking that it would make a nice impromptu gift for my Pastor who has a daughter away at college. However, as I began skimming through the passages, I was touched and inspired by Bruce and Stan's heartfelt exchanges with their daughters. They said things that I wished my father had shared with me when I was growing up. My parents divorced when I was young, so I missed out on the father-daughter bonding. However, onyourown.com has filled a void in my life, even though I am an adult!Needless to say, I've since purchased another copy for my Pastor...

The heart of a parent to their child away at college

Just read onyourown.com yesterday. I bought it for my husband to read while our daughter is away at Westmont as a sophomore. I was reading the short chapters to my daughter and we started crying together. (She is home for Thanksgiving ) We understood! These fathers have a gift of explaining life in short sermons using analogies and scripture. Both authors have a wonderful sense of humor. A must read for dads. Has Focus on the Family been introduced to this book?

A great grad gift for any Christian Hi School girl.

Stan and Bruce are two great dads who said everything I would like to say to my 19-year-old about life and faith in their E-mails to their daughters during their first years of College. One daughter is at Biola and the other at Wheaton. I kept saying to my husband, "Listen to This," and reading excerpts to him. This book reads like a devotional, with sections divided into topics. I will be recommending this book to all my friends with young adult daughters.
