How Christ’s teachings can enrich your family

Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. His ministry was dedicated to teaching people, including families, how to live their lives in order to achieve true, lasting happiness.

Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on sound principles, like those that Jesus taught. These principles include faith in Jesus Christ, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities.
