Overview

God created families as the most basic building blocks of his church. Of course, every family looks different: some with grandparents sharing space, others with adult children at home, many with just one parent, and some with only a husband and wife. No matter the makeup, there are bound to be underlying conflicts, personality differences, and sometimes even serious dysfunction. Within the confines of our homes, we can find rest from the stresses of life—if we have fostered an atmosphere of uplifting conversation, supportive prayer, and reliance upon God.
