Lessons in Family Development

The Purpose Of Lessons In Family Development

The purpose of this book is to call the straying masses back to the God of the Bible. As a pastor, I am concerned with the renunciation of the biblical principles upon which the best of life is to be built. Such virtues as manhood and being biblically challenged to reflect soundness in fatherhood. For women, being virtuous as one being prepared by God to assume the best in motherhood and a true godly helpmeet. I believe such virtues expressed by parents could produce a wholesome generation of children whose moniker is not that of an X but rather The Cross.

Lessons In Family Development is an outgrowth of pastoral frustration and societal biblical illiteracy. I am frustrated because of the influences of society that impacts the lives of those within the congregations. While the biblical literate should be the light and salt of society, there seemingly is this falling away, this apostate element whose neglect to practice their faith has helped us arrive at this point of frustration. Being yeast less within a sinful society, I wonder at times, is society, with all of its new offerings, able to generate more enthusiasm for living than those who represent the moral teachings of the Living God? The answers point up the glaring need to return to the path of righteousness.
