Christianity Today "Beautiful Orthodoxy" Book of the Year in 2019.
Why do our families have so much power over us? In The Storm-Tossed Family , bestselling author Russell Moore ( Onward , Christianity Today's 2016 "Book of the Year Award Winner") teaches readers whether you are married or single, whether you long for a child or shepherding a full house, you are part of a family. Family is difficult because family--every family--is an echo of the gospel.
Family can be the source of some of the most transcendent human joy, and family can leave us crumpled up on the side of the road. Family can make us who we are, and family can break our hearts. Why would this social arrangement have that much power, for good or for ill, over us?
Includes bibliographical references (pages 301-306).
