For many of us, the word home brings warm thoughts and happy memories—far more than the dictionary's simple definition of "a place of birth or one's living quarters." Home is where the heart is, and it is even more than that. It is the secure environment that allows our hearts to develop, a haven of growth, quiet, and rest. It is the place where we love and are loved. Sadly, this kind of home is beginning to disappear as our busy society turns homes into houses where related people abide, but where there is no "heart." With a desire to help you nurture your family's heart, Susan Schaeffer Macaulay presents a clear blueprint for constructing a home that survives the variety of situations you face in modern life. With Jesus Christ as the foundation, and using tools such as common sense, realism, and traditions, you can build a secure, loving environment where every member of your family can flourish.
