Ask any parent what they want most for their child, and most likely you'll hear the same answer again and again: to see their children grow up into happy, healthy adults whose lives count for something. But ask those same parents what they're doing to equip their children for such a life and you'll get embarrassed silence. Finally, parents can find help for this crucial task in a book that is encouraging, easy to grasp, and filled with great practical suggestions. In Launching Your Kids for Life, Bob and Cheryl Reccord liken the job of equipping your children for success in life to the procedure that NASA undertakes to prepare for a shuttle launch. The Reccords, along with their friends Dr. Tommy Holloway, past director of the NASA Space Program and three-time shuttle astronaut David Leetsma point out that just as the shuttle must break through the Earth's gravitational force into space, so too must children break free into adulthood. But our children can't do it on their own. They need our help. They need us to equip them, to prepare them, to help them discover their life's mission, and to celebrate the milestones along the way. If we learn how to do this, then we can be sure that they can fly anywhere their wings will take them.

Cheryl writes this book not to boast about her years of service but to share about the grace and mercy of God that supersedes all our services and self-righteousness. That being said, she hopes the born-again believer reading this book, who has worked for years and served with all their hearts but yet came to a crossroad and missed it, will find this the perfect time to experience what we have ministered to others about. That is the grace and mercy of God like never before. There will be those who will nail you to the cross, but receive what God is giving you from the experience. He uses everything we go through to better equip us for service. That is a lesson that will let you know whether or not, woman, if thou art really loosed. Loosed from you and loosed from others. God knows that you won’t pass every test. Just don’t drop out of the class. In the end, it will be the love of God that will see you through. It’s all designed to increase your love and mercy for others.
Through biblical accounts of their sisters in faith, women are encouraged to renounce complacency, forsake the safety of shallow security, and let God direct them to greater understanding of His will and purpose for their lives.
