Experts agree that the greatest gift parents can give their children is a happy marriage.
“Blindly, my husband and I embarked on our adventure of raising a Christian family,” says Janell Rardon. “It took a great deal of effort and relearning in order to overcome a dysfunctional family background. My husband and I were raised in homes where our fathers were alcoholics. Having strong mothers, a strong faith, and a gracious, redeeming God has enabled us to face our difficulties and somehow surmount the residual effects of this type of home environment.”
Janell and her husband committed to relearn what growing a family was all about. They read all they could about marriage, family, and relationships. Through turbulent waters, they fought to remain focused on the task of raising a strong family. Written after twenty years of ministry, research, personal experience, avid listening, and the keen observation of rock-solid families and “not-so” rock-solid families, this book is a spiritual training manual that summarizes twelve foundation stones for building spiritually strong family. It offers inspiration, simple and practical methodology, and strong scriptural application.
