Just Some Quotes (Family)

The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing; but in our culture, we apply for a curse and reject blessings. Something is wrong with this picture. ~ Doug Phillips


The family is the true society ~ Pope Leo XIII

Family means putting your arms around each other and being there.  ~Barbara Bush

 There is no cure for laziness but a large family helps.  ~Herbert Prochnov

"A family without a commitment to the God of the Bible has no hope of stemming the tide of cultural onslaught. If we mix a little biblical truth, a little secular psychology, a little romance novel ideology, and a little eastern mysticism, we will get a deadly mixture of lies. Unfortunately, this is exactly what many Christian families do." ~ Voddie Baucham

Any woodsman can tell you that in a broken and sundered nest one can hardly expect to find more than a precious few whole eggs. So it is with the family. -Thomas Jefferson

"If parents have raised their children to be great doctors, lawyers, athletes, or musicians, but have not trained them to honor them and obey God, they have failed." ~ Voddie Baucham

Having a place to go - is a home.  Having someone to love - is a family.  Having both - is a blessing.  ~Donna Hedges

The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family. ~Thomas Jefferson
