What a wonderful, needed book this is! A true gift to fathers and their daughters. After speaking to teen girls for many years, I believe that if fathers lived out the ideas in this book, their daughters would feel loved and secure, and would make better choices in their teen years. Great work, Rob!

Some of my most treasured moments and memories of my life have been special dates with my daughters. Rob and Joanna mix fun, bonding, and incredible spiritual connection with every date. Your daughter will thank you over and over again and treasure every moment, as you will too.

Jim Burns , PhD, president of HomeWord and author of Teenology , The Art of Raising Great Teens and The Purity Code

When my daughter was growing up, we loved spending time together (now that shes 23, we still do, but things have changed!). Sometimes the simplest things were the best: hitting the swings at school, walking along a creek, or our favorite, eating yogurt! How I would have cherished a book like this back then, not only to aid my creativity, but also to remind me to use these moments as a time we shared with Jesus. What a great idea; what a great book.
