Restoring Family Value

with Rev. Gordon and Dr. Mary Dalbey

We hear much today about family values, but little about family value—that is, the importance of a family to its members. Today, we too easily forget the value of a family, likely because so many are broken and the media offers few positive models to remind us. If we allow ourselves to know how valuable families are, we would be stirred after healing our own to provide the love and support God intends.

Sessions include

1. The value of a family
2. The value of marriage
3. The value of children
4. The value of extended family
