What people are saying about Talk Now and Later …
“Brian, you did it again, and this time you’ve given us a practical resource to put in the hands of every parent we partner with. For too long children’s ministers have tried to do at church alone what Father God meant for parents to do. This how-to-book for parents can help arm them to do what they were created to do—raise godly kids. This is great stuff I can’t wait to use myself. Children’s pastors talk about the need to partner with parents, but this book shows you how!”
Jim Wideman
Author, children’s pastor, and world-renowned public speaker
“The material in this book is incredibly insightful, and I’m already implementing it in my home. That’s how practical and helpful it is. Brian has brought some of his best stuff to this book.”
Jeremy Lee
Creator of ParentMinistry.net
“I love this book. Brian not only navigates parents through ‘why’ but ‘how’’ to talk to their children about difficult topics. His simple concept of being proactive early rather than reactive later is something we all need to hear.”
Craig Jutila
President of Empowered Living Inc.; author of Faith and the Modern Family: How to Raise a Healthy Family in a Modern World; www.whowillyouempower.com
“Discipling children is one of the most important responsibilities Christian parents have. The younger the child the more difficult it is to know what to say, how to say it, and when to say it. If you are struggling, let Brian Dollar be your coach. As you read Talk Now and Later you will feel as though he is by your side, coaching you every step of the way.”
Dr. Alton Garrison
Assistant General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God
“What a gift! This is the easy-to-read resource church leaders have been waiting for, whether for their own reference or to provide families in their ministry. Rich with relatable stories and Bible illustrations, Brian equips parents to shepherd their children through life’s toughest issues. As I read the book, I kept thinking of unchurched friends who are resistant to faith discussions but who would be receptive to this book because they want help navigating difficult parent-child discussions. This is one of the most practical and universally helpful family ministry tools I’ve ever seen.”
Amy Fenton Lee
Author of Leading a Special Needs Ministry: A Practical Guide to Including Children and Loving Families and blogger at TheInclusiveChurch.com
“In easy-to-read and practical terms, Brian has taken Moses’ instruction in Deuteronomy to talk about the things of God ‘when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up’ and gives clear direction to parents. This book should have a permanent spot on the nightstand of every parent whose intent is to talk with their children through life’s challenges and thereby raise the next generation of strong Christians.”
Dr. Greg Murry
Superintendent, Conway Public Schools
“Today’s generation of children deeply desires a significant relationship with their parents. In Talk Now and Later , author Brian Dollar takes moms and dads to school on casual conversation with their kids. In a screen-first world, honing the skills to relate and connect to our children is critical. Talk Now and Later is a vital guide that provides language and biblical foundations to navigate these conversations with confidence.”
Matt Guevara
Director, International Network of Children’s Ministries
“Brian has a knack for infusing humor and truth with practical steps to help parents communicate with their kids. Talk Now and Later is appropriately named because talking with your kids now builds a relational bridge to the heart of your child that difficulty will inevitably test. Brian’s insight on how to do that well is life-giving. As a pastor and parent, I see the need for this book in my life and I hope you will as well.”
Sam Luce
Blogger at Samluce.com ; campus pastor, Redeemer Church, Utica, NY
“Parenting in today’s world is super challenging! Kids now face difficult, complex issues earlier than ever. Times have changed. Parents, don’t let society, culture, and the media shape your kids’ opinions. Brian Dollar provides an easy-to-read practical blueprint for difficult conversations. With his wisdom and Bible-based advice, you can lead your children through life’s toughest topics. Talk Now and Later is a valuable guide for parents attempting to raise godly children.”
Rod Loy
Senior Pastor, First Assembly of God, North Little Rock, AR; author of Three Questions, Immediate Obedience, and After the Honeymoon
“Years ago, I had the privilege of watching Brian from a front row seat as we served together on a church staff. I was impressed with his insights, warmth, and creativity. In the years since then, I’ve seen him grow into a phenomenal leader, teacher, and shepherd of kids and their parents. This book, Talk Now and Later , is an instant classic. As he addresses ten important topics of conversation for parents and their children, he provides clear understanding, a biblical foundation, practical suggestions, and stories that inspire and challenge parents to step into their kids’ lives in a deeper way.”
Scott Wilson
Senior Pastor of The Oaks Fellowship, Red Oak, TX
“Often, single parents are plagued by the task of talking to their children about topics they feel the absent parent should discuss. Brian’s instruction on approaching these conversations and creating an effective dialogue with children is incredibly comforting, practical, and encouraging. Any parent in any situation can use this book. It’s definitely a hands-on, must-have manual.”
Renee Donaldson
Single mother of two
“There are dozens of conversations parents want to avoid having with their kids because they feel awkward, don’t have the answers, or are uncertain how their kids will respond. But these conversations are critical. In Talk Now and Later , Brian gives practical insights to help parents introduce the topic and speak with confidence. Kids everywhere will thank their parents for reading this book …and putting it into practice.”
Mark Entzminger
Senior Director of Children’s Ministries of the General Council of the Assemblies of God
“ Talk Now and Later is more than a discussion starter, it’s a valuable tool every parent needs to raise godly children. Brian Dollar shares from his experience, education, and ministry how to navigate difficult conversations. It will encourage you, make you laugh, and, most importantly, guide you step by step so you will be equipped to point your children to God and the Bible. You will use this book as a reference for years to come.”
John Van Pay
Lead pastor, Gateway Fellowship Church, San Antonio, TX
“As a mother of five, I know firsthand how easy it is to avoid talking about tough topics with your kids. Brian tells us both why and how to have the courageous conversations necessary to raise socially, emotionally, and spiritually healthy kids. You’ll find yourself reaching for this book often as you navigate your parenting journey.”
Donna Hill
Mother of five and professional educator
“Kids don’t come with owner’s manuals. If they did, this book would be required reading. Parents will agree it’s their job to have the ‘uncomfortable’ conversations, but too often they don’t know how to start. Talk Now and Later provides a real life, practical resource for parents. From the introduction to the conclusion, Brian has shared principle-centered advice for parents. It’s a terrific resource for anyone with children!”
Spencer Click
Executive Pastor of Family Life, Bethel Church, Hampton, VA
“To be an effective minister to kids and families, you have to connect with them and help them with the unique challenges they face. Brian has been doing this for years, and now he shares his insights with the rest of us. This book is a must-read!”
