Family 411

The Family 411 Radio Programs are designed to help you with the important task of building a strong, healthy family. If you are a mom, dad, stepparent, grandparent, or single parent, Family 411 will provide you with practical parenting, as well as marital, education. As the creator and speaker for Family 411, I seek to provide information and resources to make your job as a parent doable. Many parents feel unprepared to give their children the guidance and teaching that they need. Unprepared parents are often frustrated and frazzled and just worn out! Their homes may appear to be in chaos and crisis much of the time because of their lack of education and experience. Parents often don't have the confidence to set firm guidelines and consistently follow through with pre-determined consequences. If you have any of these doubts or concerns, I am here to help you with this tough job. If you are a seasoned parent needing support for the challenging job of raising children, this place is for you. If you need to know as much as possible about the family foundations of good guidance, healthy discipline, and loving relationships, check out our website often.

I promise you that with God's guidance, I will provide you with resources to advise and encourage you with the constant demands of meeting your family's needs.

I believe that as Christian parents, we view the job of building a strong family with the highest respect and the deepest conviction. Christian parents know that the legacy of strong Biblical principles that we provide our children will continue for generations to come. Our grandchildren and great-grandchildren will reap the benefits of the godly heritage that we build during our generation of parenting.

This is the reason that Family 411 began. I know the urgency that we, parents feel, to increase the presence of strong and excellent influences in our families, in our churches and in our communities. Our culture is so heavily biased to behave in ways that are demeaning and damaging to families who put Biblical values first. For the sake of our children and teens, now is the time for God's people to turn to the basic foundations of Biblical teachings as the basis of healthy family relationships.

God invented family! It was his idea for us to be in relationship with each other. The educational information that you will see here is all based on the marriage and parenting essentials in God's instructions. You will read about spiritual guidance, discipline and teaching, family leadership, children's self-esteem, marital conflict, intimacy and sex, and many other concerns that are part of a parent's responsibility. For quality, well-researched information on some of the toughest family topics, check out the Family 411 program information here and on The Cross website.

My promise to you is that I will provide you with the best that family experts have learned and to be faithful to follow God's word in all that I present to you.
