Families at the Crossroads

Beyond Tradition & Modern Options

By Rodney R. Clapp

(paperback)

  • critiques both traditional and trendy ideas about the family
  • takes a fresh look at the story of Israel and Jesus -- and the lessons of that story for today's families
  • makes a strong biblical case for the church as "first family"
  • offers a model of the family for the 21st century (a "mission base" rather than a "safe haven")
  • addresses the special challenges facing single-parent families, stepfamilies and singles
