It examines such topics as how to prepare for marriage, how to keep a marriage divorce proof, and how parents influence children, and vice versa. In its quest to discover what makes families thrive, the book addresses and compares best parenting practices and describes interventions that help the development of family ties over a large span of the life-course. It offers guidance to families through several stages of family life: Pre-marital, marital, and raising children and adolescents. It makes clear that what constitutes an effective parent changes over the life course.

So many individuals go through life while never putting a thought to the value God puts on each and every one of us. For that matter, many don’t even put a value on themselves at all. It was after interviewing many people and challenging them with the question “What is our net worth in the eyes of God?” that I realized that most people didn’t know how to answer this question. Most of the answers varied depending on the very diversified lives of every individual. This book is intended to help open our eyes and minds to a point that we can realize our worth in the eyes of God to a point that we will know how much we are worth to God first, but then to ourselves. That because we are created by God, we are unique and special. We must be prepared to make changes and learn to prioritize our lives. Instead of being followers, be pioneers. We are very valuable in the eyes of God!

As this book makes clear, a Christian ethic of care serves to illuminate our relationship with God while also helping to flesh out what care looks like in various contexts, including and especially teaching and teacher education. How Shall We Then Care? invites engagement with questions not just about what teachers should know about care, but about how they are to care for those in their circle of influence, what it means to care, what counts as care, what practices ...
