Family


Families Today

The average US household demographics indicate a radical departure from what has traditionally been described as "Family." Absent are meaningful relationships, parenting, responsibilities, accountabilities, mentoring, grandparental involvement, significant values etc.

A growing majority of households have just one 'parent. Key influences in the lives of children are provided by music, videos, television & the internet rather than from family - based counsel, mentoring, parenting and grandparenting.

How do you protect, guide and develop a healthy family these days? Interestingly enough, there are a variety of  very good resources from that same scourge, the internet! Below is a short list of resources we value and use:

Family Life

Focus on the Family

National Center For Fathering

Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood
