I love my family!
I love the scriptures!
I know that God gave us both families and scriptures to help
us grow. I find the scriptures answer my questions and help me make better
decisions in life. I also see great promises from God for people that decide to
follow his words. I believe that if families found modern application for
biblical principles, we would all be much happier and our families will be much
stronger. That’s the premise for Family Parables. The Family Parable books
specifically talk about a family that uses Jesus’ parables to solve their
problems.
This blog is all about the family and principles taught in
the scriptures to help strengthen families. Scriptural truths are eternal. They
never lose importance or power. To demonstrate these truths, I will incorporate
stories as often as possible, some fictional and some factual. I think we
understand principles better when we see them in context.
I openly acknowledge my imperfections as a husband, father
and reader of scriptures. If there are mistakes in my logic or explanation, I
apologize up front. Don’t let my weakness keep you from learning something that
can help bring you closer to God.
I hope you will use these blog posts to start discussions
with your family and then continue learning with your own prayerful study of
the scriptures.
Next week’s blog: The family is under attack.
