Synopsis

Is your family all that it could be?

Many feel bombarded by images and experiences of broken families, but this is not how God intended families to be!

So often we examine the traits of unhealthy families, but Gary Chapman paints a biblical portrait of what a loving, stable family looks like. He details five timeless characteristics that create a healthy family environment:

  • A heart for service
  • Husbands and wives who relate intimately
  • Parents who guide their children
  • Children who obey and honor their parents
  • Husbands who love and lead

In Dr. Chapman's own words, "What happens to your family does make a difference not only to you and your children, but to the thousands of young observers who are in search of a functional family."

This book is not merely for reading, but for living. Experience God's design for family.

From AudioFile

Chris Fabry gives another memorable performance of a relationship guide from Gary Chapman. With his understated emotional presence and seamless connection with the author's message, Fabry has the aura and pacing of the relaxed, articulate teacher the author happens to be. Chapman is a gifted storyteller whose down-to-earth wisdom on family life is based on Christian concepts of authority, obedience, love, and charity. In this realm, he is on the kind and gentle end of the spectrum. Chapman's lack of judgment, pretension, or intellectualization makes his discussion energizing and accessible. Using familiar but never syrupy examples, he describes every possible way we can put more into our family roles and motivate our family members to do the same. T.W. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
