"Parents, you will teach your children more...

...by scheduling regular times to nurture the relationship between husband and wife than you would ever teach them through a lecture on commitment.  Although it is important to pray for your child, seeking The Lord for that perfect spouse for them, it is equally important that you teach them through your example how to cherish the future gift of a companion that The Lord has in store for them."

           Katherine Walden

"Let no Christian...

...parents fall into the delusion that Sunday School is intended to ease them of their personal duties. The first and most natural condition of things is for Christian parents to train up their own children in the nurture and admonition of The Lord."
            Charles Haddon Spurgeon

"In every conceivable manner...

...the family is link to our past, bridge to our future."

Alex Haley

"People are...

...pretty forgiving when it comes to other people's families. The only family that ever horrifies you is your own."

Doug Coupland
