Publisher Profile

Family Matters Press

Family Matters Press is an imprint of Family Matters. We produce Christian relationship resources like books, workbooks, study guides and video studies. Read more about our ministry: Family Matters is a non-profit ministry whose goal is to see families transformed by God's grace into instruments of restoration and reformation by equipping families for every age and stage of life. We view families as the foundation of a successful society. Today, perhaps more than ever before, the family is being fragmented and undermined by many counter-forces such as busyness, relentless change, a lack of clear moral values, an attitude of indifference, and children being forced to grow up too fast. When families are unhealthy, our communities suffer many of the consequences in areas relating to economic productivity, education, law enforcement, health care needs, abuse, and violence. Family Matters offers hope for today’s family by... Educating family members about the strategic role they play in their homes and communities. Equipping family members with successful relational skills and resources to make better family choices. Encouraging family members to keep their promises and fulfill their commitments to one another. In addition to offering hope, our ministry philosophy embraces a grace-based approach to relationships. It provides a solid grasp of the "big picture" and promotes a character-driven strategy for parenting no matters what your situation. Traditional, blended families, single parents, foster and adoptive parents and even parents of children with special needs can leave a legacy that lasts forever.
