Publisher Comments:

As people of faith and as parents, we have all struggled at times to root our home lives in faith and to help our children know Gods grace. But what does it take to sense the Holy at work in our families? How do children learn to live out this love? What can parents do to help?

The Power of God at Homeby Bradley J. Wigger provides both a biblical model and practical suggestions for helping the entire family become aware of God's presence in everyday life. He thoughtfully reveals the powerful formative influence of family life and shows that homes are the places where some of the deepest, most important learning takes place. Wigger— a husband, father, and professor of Christian education— uses honest examples from his own family life that open a window to grace and encourage parents to take a second look at their own homes, their own faith, and how home and faith connect in their lives. The Power of God at Home offers a refreshing perspective on family life, revealing families as potential bearers of God's grace and blessing and telling us how we can play this role more intentionally and thoughtfully.

This important book offers parents a wise blend of storytelling, biblical interpretation, and suggestions for family practice. The Power of God at Homeis an inspirational guide that will help to renew our spiritual lives together as a family, welcoming God home.
