Description

The author blends spiritual narratives and biblical stories with behavioral theory to explain

modern family life and its unique contributions to faith formation. This book offers hope and

encouragement for people who have thought that God could not possibly bless them in their

peculiar relationships or families.



Using archetypes and behavior development frameworks while interpreting and retelling biblical

stories, the book features both personal and traditional stories of faith, complemented by the

contemporary insights of cognitive scientists, including Gardner, Eisner and others.
