Publisher's Description: Besides our relationship with our heavenly Father, there is nothing more important than our relationship with our family. It is the building block of our churches, communities, and nation. So when we neglect our families, the foundation of our churches and nation crumbles, and our homes begin to splinter.

If we desire to fulfill God's calling in our lives and to make a difference in others' lives for eternity, then we must start within our families. Whether single or married, with children or not, we all have a part in God's calling to build strong spiritual families.

Dennis Rainey and the other Christian leaders understand that in order to make a change you need standards, courage, and innovative strategies. In this book you will find challenging, encouraging words on key issues ranging from gender roles and sexual intimacy within marriage to raising masculine boys and feminine girls, as well as the practical concerns of renewal in your own home and effective mentoring within the church and community.

God's Calling is clear: we each have a part in his family. With the help of these respected Christians, you should be able to find the best way to fulfill your part.
