For many of us, the word home brings warm thoughts
and happy memories-far more than the dictionary's
simple definitions of "a place of birth or one's
living quarters." It is the secure environment that
allows our hearts to develop. A haven of growth,
quiet and rest. The place where we love and are
loved. Sadly, though, this kind of home is beginning
to disappear as our busy society turns homes into
houses where related people abide, but where there
is no "heart." With Jesus Christ as the foundation,
using tools such as commmon sense, realism and traditions,
you can build a secure living environment where
every member of your family can flourish.
