All families come in a frustrating combination of two life-styles: at times intentional at other times otherwise. The popular writing team Carr and Sorley show how a family even an otherwise one can make choices that will direct its own destiny into intentional channels.For a family to become intentional it must consider each phase of its life: basic relationship acceptance, love, and trust; family celebrations worship; family demonstrations arts and crafts; learning together; management of money and time; facing change; and finding a life-style. In all these relationship life is viewed as a choice deliberate or by default to be or not to be the people of God in today's world.
