On Blessings
In this all-new program taped before a live audience, Fr. Rolheiser talks about blessings in a whole new way: the focus is not how to get them, or count them, but how to give them. Specifically, he says that the young "hunger for the father's blessing," and that older people must, "feed the young." In his warm and engaging style, Fr. Rolheiser tells us why we should offer blessings and support to those younger than ourselves, how to do it, and about the rewards for those giving and receiving blessings.

As Fr. Rolheiser says, "When we act like God, we get to feel like God." Rev. Ron Rolheiser, OMI is a Missionary Oblate of Mary Immaculate, president of Oblate School of Theology in San Antonio, Texas and a specialist in the fields of spirituality and systematic theology.

Part 2 shows family activities that are a fun and easy way to prepare students and families for this important step in their child's faith journey. Includes leader's guide.
