There once was a time when skills for building healthy families were passed on from generation to generation, when extended family members helped shoulder the awesome task of raising children, when the culture at large reinforced the values of harmony, stability, and spirituality.

No longer.

Most of us miss the benefits of an extended family or a family-friendly culture to show us how to build effective families. If you're among these perhaps you should consider enlisting the help a "family coach." Family Challenge Ministries is here to offer you the family training you need.

Could your family use help in these areas?

• MANAGING ANGER
• OVERCOMING GUILT & BITTERNESS
• ACHIEVING EMOTIONAL CONTENTMENT
• ENJOYING SPIRITUAL HEALTH
• RESOLVING CONFLICT
• ADOPTING A VISION FOR YOUR FAMILY
• STRENGTHENING MARRIAGE
• ACHIEVING INTERGENERATIONAL HARMONY

Since 1975 Erik Johnson has been helping families by giving spiritual counsel, teaching Biblical principles of family management, and guiding couples, parents and teens toward better relationships. Erik is a well-respected Christian specializing in marriage, family, and teen spirituality. His academic training (Dip. Biblical Studies, B.A., M.C.S.) and ministry experience (23 years on staff in four evangelical churches), is second only to the education and knowledge he's acquired from his successes and failures as a husband for 28 years and father of five.
