Since the day you fell in love and married, you carried a dream in your heart. More than anything you want to build a Christian home full of faith and the goodness of God. Yet like so many couples, you have no blueprints from your past to guide your way. God’s truth and his ways were painfully absent from your upbringing. You feel scared and insecure about how to put Christ in the center of your home and love each other like Jesus.

Todays guest, Mary DeMuth, knows what it’s like to build a loving, godly home out of the ashes of the past. She offers hope as she helps us to understand:

• How Mary’s traumatic childhood motivated her to create a new vision for her family life.
• The struggles “pioneer parents” face as first-generation Christians in their families.
• The pitfalls of perfectionism in our marriage and parenting.
• Why pursuing your own healing is the best gift you can give your family.
• The power of forgiveness to change your life and home.
• The value of mentors and examples to follow.
• How to set healthy boundaries so you can “leave and cleave” and support one another.
• How God’s kindness and prayer make all the difference.
