Christian Family Living breathes the air of home life -- noise of children, rush of schedule, unexpected humor, family meals, catastrophes big and little, expecting mothers, worship, faith, heartache. Christian Family Living is for fathers who want to lead their family tn the way of truth. It is for mothers who yearn for the serenity of Grandmother but who live more frequently with the spoutings of frustration. It is for young men and women facing the crosswinds of growing up. It is for parents seeking to avoid the pell-mell race into vanity. It is for those who are willing to be honest with themselves and their families, and willing also to be made godly. Christian Family Living offers pages of practical, step-by-step instruction from training toddlers to courtship standards to caring for aging parents. At the end of each chapter are questions which can serve as a study guide and projects for implementing the ideas discussed in the chapter. Christian Family Living is more than a book. It is a treasury, a heritage of truth, a guide and companion for families, churches, and individuals serious about things eternal.
