An active Christian?Then dive in and immerse yourself into Conversations with Gio. But get ready. You'll never emerge the same. It's an absolute life-changer."I sat there staring at this little three-month old baby during a midnight feeding. Gio was so young and vulnerable. I couldn't believe God trusted me with this child. I couldn't believe he blessed me with him either. A huge sense of emotion took over----WHAT A GREAT RESPONSIBILITY this is to be a parent. How am I going to handle this? How can I be a great father? How will I raise this boy in such a chaotic world? What will I teach him?Then the idea came. I needed to map out all of my life lessons---the mistakes, the failures, the successes. I needed to outline my perspective on the world we live in. I needed to capture the secret I've found to living a life full of meaning and purpose. A manual. A guidebook. Something that will help me to remember what to teach and instill in Gio as he grows up.And if I were to die before I can teach Gio these things, he now has my words stamped on these pages to always refer to. So I started writing. WHY SHARE?This book is full of life lessons and principles that apply to everyone---Coaches, Parents, Teachers, Athletes, Students, Kids, Adults, Men, Women, Mothers, Fathers, HUMANS. After sharing a few snippets in blogs, and getting such positive responses, I realized that a lot of people can benefit from this fresh perspective. I decided to share publicly with everyone. Even if we've heard it before, it never hurts to hear it again." - Coach Theo"In Conversations with Gio, Theo explores the most fundamental issues of parenthood and the lessons we seek to pass on to our children. Anyone who's spent any time with Theo understands his incredible faith, authenticity, warmth, compassion, energy, and enthusiasm for life. Through his actions and now his book, Theo continues to inspire me to become a better parent to my daughters."Chris AntonettiGeneral Manager, Cleveland Indians (far more importantly, Dad of Mya and Ella)"Our children are like seeds. They have unlimited potential. It's our attention to, and care for them that helps determine whether or not they reach it. Place them in good soil and provide plenty of sunshine and water, and they grow to bear fruit and bring life to many for generations to come. Theo is doing something we should all be doing as parents. He's investing and sewing valuable principles into his children as a first priority.
