The Storm Tossed Family

Description

Why do our families have so much power over us? In The Cross-Shaped Family, best-selling author Russell Moore (Onward, Christianity Today’s 2016 “”Beautiful Orthodoxy Book of the Year Award Winner””) teaches readers whether you are married or single, whether you long for a child or shepherding a full house, you are part of a family. Family is difficult because family-every family-is an echo of the Gospel.

Family can be the source of the most transcendent human joy, and family can leave us crumpled up on the side of the road. Family can make us who we are, and family can break our hearts. Why should this social arrangement have that much power, for good or for ill, over us?

The only safe harbor for the storm-tossed family is a nail scarred home
