Reforming Motherhood

Jul. 27, 2006 - Food for thought

I am reading Family Practice which is edited by R.C.Sproul, Jr. and I am just finishing the forward.  But I read a quote last night that I thought was really clever. 

 

"Andrew Lytle argued that the American family was destroyed not by Hollywood or Washington, but by central heating.  Before its advent, families stayed together by the fire.  You could either have peace and warmth, or bicker and be cold."

 

I have read/heard a lot of different blames about why whole healthy families have become a thing of the past.  This was a new idea for me.  Really, I think like most of our ills it is our sin we should blame, but this was clever.

 

Do what you can to get your family around the proverbial fire today.
