Family Life in Bible Times
| Category | Child Philosophy |
| Resource Owner | Compassion International |
In the second book of the Children and Families in the Bible series, a range of topics related to children and families will be explored. The Bible is a case book illustrating so well the "good, bad, and ugly" about family relationships. Interestingly, one has to look very hard throughout Scriptures to find fully Godly and functional families. But just as lawyers and doctors learn from the case study method, we can also learn much from both the positive and negative "cases" we find in the Bible. This booklet may be used for private study or as an instruction tool in studies and workshops in churches, amongst child care workers, or other settings. It is suitable for young adults and older (ages 18+) and is a downloadable book in PDF format.
