Now we say to learn to love… Here is the big drama that families face… When one of the spouses –or both often– have not learned to love… It's a strange thing, we think that love is provoked by sexuality –there is where desire is created, which is also useful– and it combines with love, however, love is a virtue that is cultivated in the parental family, for people to learn to love each other, to learn to forgive, to learn to help each other, to feel each other's problems as their own.

The Parent Schools were a significant concern for the late Konstantinos Ganoitis. He saw how confused and disoriented couples –married or not– are, and he wanted to help them understand the sacred purpose of marriage, either to enjoy it as he enjoyed his own with his beloved Rinoula or to encourage others to dare to marry. Indeed, his struggle bore fruits.

Konstantinos Ganoitis' words had, have, and will have a simplistic joy that would miraculously draw away all sadness and worries, and in their place, it would literally plant a fragrant little flower, like jasmine. It made you recognize the gifts of God within yourself and rejoice blissfully for them.

Thus, within the texts of this book, one will find that great truths are expressed in simple words. Words that go straight to the heart. Words that not only convince you but do something more: they heal egoism and passions without judging you, with the power of love and the truth of the Holy Spirit, which literally bathed him and gave him boundless appetite and joy.

Furthermore, he often referred to his spiritual Father, Saint Porphyrios, not so much to convince, but because he himself had experiences with this great Saint that changed his life and pedagogical approach.

In these talks, the dialogical and expressive character was maintained intact. At certain points, references from texts of the Holy Bible or others mentioned in these talks for the spiritual edification of the readers have been added.
