The Family You've Always Wanted
Many feel bombarded by images and experiences of broken families. This is not how God intended families to be! So often we examine the traits of unhealthy families, but Gary Chapman paints a biblical portrait of what a loving, stable family looks like. This book is not just to be read, but experienced. Chapman details five timeless characteristics that create a healthy family environment:
• An attitude of service
• Intimacy between husband and wife
• Parents who teach and train
• Children who obey and honor parents
• Husbands who are loving leaders
In Dr. Chapman’s own words, “What happens to your family does make a difference not only to you and your children, but to the thousands of young observers who are in search of a functional family.” Updated and revised edition of Five Signs of a Loving Family.

Testimonials
“I have been in the youth ministry for 8 years now and this is one of the best books that I have ever read for those who have teenagers…Many parents have found what Chapman says as invaluable information. We now even do a special discipleship class based around the material in this book. I highly recommend it to any parent who has a teenager...it will change the way you view your student and the way you treat them.”
–Nathan Hicks, Kentucky

“Every parent and person that works with youths should have this book. It is THE manual for understanding teenagers. Chapman does a fantastic job of explaining that a child's language does not change when they become a teenager, but they do adopt a different dialect. How fascinating! His advice and techniques are solid and effective. Get this book and watch the way it improves your relationship with all the children in your life. It is worth its weight in gold.”
–Nelson, New Mexico

“Where was this book when we were raising two teenagers? The fact that we did so well is a testimony to dumb luck and two very understanding and flexible youngsters. This is an invaluable book for any parent about to begin the teenage years with their children.”
