In this day and age, "family" can mean almost anything, and for author David M. Thomas, it has. Father of seven and foster father to over seventy children, as well as a teacher for more than forty years, Thomas views family life as the primary way God calls us to holiness. A Community of Love examines spiritual aspects of family life, such as: Rites of passage Making mealtime sacred The power--and pressure--of parenthood Praying together Creating a natural learning environment The future of the family With Scripture, reflections, essays and poems, Thomas draws on his vast storehouse of experience and knowledge to provide inspiring examples of how to nurture a spiritually fulfilling home life within the modern complexities of "family."
