Becoming an Intentional Family

Every child wants to be seen, known, and accepted for who they are. As parents, it’s our job to help our kids know they are valued and loved. Becoming an Intentional Family is a practical resource for creating a home where children feel that sense of security and belonging. This book explores these five areas: family, marriage, parenting, home, and outreach. It is a resource for parents to find new ways to give their children the gift of belonging, create meaningful memories, and build self-confidence.
