Parenting is hard work and in today's busy society it's easy for families to get off track, unsure of the direction they're headed. Your Family Compass gives parents real tools for dealing with the challenges that come with raising children birth through the early teen years, and will truly put your family on a healthy path.

I'm just an average guy. I expected to live an average life. This is the story of how I dealt with the disabilities of three of my children and the developing mental illness of my wife. I want to encourage people living through similar challenges to keep going. I learned to navigate the system and get the help I needed for my family. I hope some of what I learned can be helpful to others. Everything is a process.

If these questions have resonated in your heart, Hope for Families is for you. Dan Swaningson, husband and father of three, has put together an easy-to-read, straightforward, no-holds-barred message just for you---a real person from another real person, a father and husband who struggles to hold a family together while just trying to keep a roof over their heads, just like you do. Drawing from the Word of God, his own experience, and from lessons gleaned during his many years of ministering to children and families on the brink, while learning to be a daddy and a husband himself, Dan also shares how he overcame his own tumultuous childhood with entertaining and challenging stories. It is his prayer that this book will encourage you to be there and not give up!
