The Family You Want
How to Build an Authentic, Loving Home
John Huffman
In an age of broken homes and disintegrating family structures, John Huffman investigates the real issues at stake in the family and helps you to live in the best family that you are able to have. John takes us through the issues associated with work, spirituality, emotions, children, parenting, the extended family, divorce, sex and marriage. With chapters entitled "What Jesus can do for your family" and "Why work should be your fourth priority" the book is an enjoyable and easy read, with a much-needed message. John's advice is practical and comes with solid biblical foundations; it is precisely what is needed for the Families of the 21st Century.

'I highly recommend it, for our family relationships can be the cause both of the highest earthly joy, and also the deepest pain. John Huffman has written a book that is both biblical and practical; with high ideals but a realistic understanding that we all struggle with this most important of human relations'
