MAIN SESSION 1
The Intentional Family vs The Reactional Family
Today's families need to make a decision. Are we going to be intentional with this family that God has blessed us with or are we going to be a family that simply reacts to life and the world around us? Too often the reactionary famlies falls apart under the pressures of life, while the intentional family thrives in life as they embrace God and His truths.
MAIN SESSION 2
