About this book
How do you blend two separate families into one household? Family traditions, values, interests, and parenting styles are often so far apart that simple questions like, ""Who takes out the trash?"" or ""Where shall we go for Christmas?"" can quickly become flashpoints of conflict. In CCEFs Help for Stepfamilies: Avoiding the Pitfalls and Learning to Love, Winston T. Smith provides a road map to the unique challenges that each member of a stepfamily faces. Drawing on his experience as a marriage and family counselor, Winston Smith shows how understanding each other's struggles, honest sharing, and sacrificial love can transform and unify your stepfamily. As you learn to practically apply these biblical principles, you will find that there are also unique blessings to be found in your new, blended family.All the minibooks in our Christian bookstore offer gospel-centered hope for everyday issues like parenting, marriage, and personal change.
