"...that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace" (Psalms 144:12)
As we look across the landscape of Christian families and Christian homes, there is one relationship which has been universally forgotten and forsaken -- that of fathers and their daughters. God designed it to be one of the most beautiful and powerful relationships that we can experience. As we seek to see the Godly family restored, we must not ignore the special bond that God creates between every girl and her daddy.
David Barrett, and his twenty-one year-old daughter Elysse want to see Christian families be all that God designed for them to be... and it starts with the restoration of a father's heart toward his daughter and a daughter towards her father! (Malachi 4:6)
Laugh and cry with David and his daughter Elysse as they open the door to their home and their relationship. Allow them to share with you their struggles and successes as they have sought to make Jesus Christ Lord of their father-daughter relationship. In more than a dozen topics, David shares about their unique relationship through the eyes of a father, while Elysse looks at their life and dreams through a daughter's heart.
This book is written for fathers and daughters of all ages, as David and Elysse reflect on over twenty years of growing, learning, and sharing as Dad and daughter.

"Cornerstones are the keys to the rest of the building. They give direction and set the angles for most of what follows. So it is with the training of daughters. Though the world would say that teaching daughters to appreciate their Biblical role is stiffling their creativity, the opposite is true. The Bible calls daughters polished cornerstones for a reason. True women of faith give direction to their children, and set the angles or beliefs necessary for God's line of liberty to flower in the future..
David and Elysse Barrett have done a service to the body of Christ. Though you may not agree with every idea presented, you will benefit from both the thoughtful content as well as the motive and desire of this father-daughter team. Through years of fruitful study and practice, David and Elysee, together with others who have labored with a similar mindset, set forth a vision for not only the early years of training, but the later years of fruitful harvest.
If this book is successful, it will help dispel the myth that we must have a generation gap. It would also dispel the myth that our teens must rebel in order be ultimately fulfilled. Don't buy the lies of our culture that have produced such corruption. Instead, buy this book and purchase the truth - you'll be glad you did, and your children and grandchildren will one day rise and call you blessed if you are faithful to the Word of God!"
--Dr. Paul Jehle
Senior Pastor, The New Testament Church, Plymouth, Massachusetts
