Fit for the Master's Use

Book excerpt: The design of God for the family is for them to fulfill His plan together, and for children to be a source of great pleasure and joy. When parents raise their children according to the Word of God, children are enjoyed, and are a joy for others to be around. Amid today's troubled society, Christian families are to rise up and sing openly as testimonies of how a God-filled home is to be a place of heaven on earth. We must always remember the home of the believer is to be a shining testimony of God's grace, love, and power to a world full of hopelessness. The home of every Christian should bear the mark of being untouched by that which is destroying many homes in today's society. Every Christian family is to stand up in the face of all that is wrong and proclaim, "Not here! You won't come into my home! We're doers of the Word!" Then that which destroys the homes of millions, won't gain entrance into your home. Protect your home from all that would divide. God will hold that home in the safety of His power as those in the home choose to live according to His Word. In writing Fit for the Master's Use, Nancy Dufresne draws on the Word, on many years of pastoring, and on her own parenting experience to bring to you a Word-based, commonsense guide to parenting that will help you create a God-filled home that will be a place of heaven on earth.
